Abstract :Aim: To evaluate changes in handgrip strength during different tasks. Materials and Methods: A total of 125 volunteers participated. Handgrip strength was assessed using a hand dynamometer under six different conditions. Results: Female participants showed a tendency to increase grip strength as balance difficulty increased, however, the addition of cognitive tasks led to a decrease (p<0.05). In male participants, no changes were observed during balance tasks (p>0.05), but similar to females, grip strength decreased with the addition of cognitive tasks (p<0.05). Conclusion: Preventing the decrease in grip strength during cognitive tasks in both genders, and preventing the increase in grip strength during additional balance tasks in women, are considered to be effective in reducing the risk of injuries and workplace accidents.Keywords : El kavrama kuvveti, İkili görev, Çalışma koşulları
