While dual-task training is commonly used, poorly matched cognitive demands can interfere with motor performance and learning. This introductory course introduces the Salzman Matrix, an evidence-aligned clinical reasoning framework designed to guide purposeful cognitive–motor integration while minimizing interference. Participants will learn how to distinguish cognitive processes that support movement from cognitive demands that commonly compete with motor goals, and how to apply this framework to functional treatment planning and documentation across rehabilitation settings.auditory, textual, visual129USDSubscriptionUnlimited COURSE Access for $129/yearOnlineOnlyPhysicalTherapy.comwww.physicaltherapy.comThe Salzman Matrix: Combining Cognitive & Motor Tasks with PurposeCognition and movement are tightly linked in functional activity, yet integrating them in rehabilitation can be challenging.

A key component of this process is determining and applying the appropriate therapeutic dose using the FITT principle— Frequency, Intensity, Time, and Type. While many patients show functional improvement, some present challenges where progress is limited or clinically insignificant. This course provides practical strategies for identifying and integrating the best available evidence into clinical decision-making.
