The purpose of this study was to investigate changes in dynamic bal-ance and gross motion function when dual-task training was performed on an unstable support surface by children with spastic diplegia. The subjects of this study were 14 children (experimental group n=7, con-trol group n=7) who were medical diagnosed with spastic diplegia. Both groups were administered treatment for 30 min, 2 times a week for 8 weeks, with the experimental group performing dual-task exercise in which cognitive tasks related to daily living were performed while main-taining balance on an unstable surface, and the control group being ad-ministered neuro-developmental treatment. Balance and gross motor function Assessments were conducted before intervention and after 8 weeks of intervention. Wilcoxon signed-rank test was performed to analyze changes in balance, gross motor function in the group, and the Mann–Whitney test was conducted to compare the differences be-tween the two groups before and after intervention. The results showed that there was a statistically significant difference in both groups when balance in a sitting position and gross motor function (P<0.05). There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in bal-ance and gross motor function assessment (P<0.05). Based on the re-sults of this study, it was confirmed that dual-task training improves bal-ance, gross motor function in children with spastic diplegia. Therefore, dual-task training may be considered as an effective method of inter-vention method in the functional aspect of children with spastic diple-gia.
