First primary outcome: Performance of Parkinson's disease patients with Freezing of Gait on behavioral tasks compared to Parkinson's disease patients without Frezzing of Gait and healthy controls. <br><br /><br /><br>Second primary outcome: Cerebral activation patterns during shifting between response sets in Parkinson's disease patients with Freezing of Gaot, relative to Parkinson's disease patients without Freezing of Gait and healthy controls. <br><br /><br /><br>Third primary outcome: Change of performance on response shifting task and gait trajectory after administration of Methylphenidate in Parkinson's disease patients with Freezing of Gait, relative to placebo. <br><br /><br /><br>Fourth primary outcome: Cerebral activation change after administration of Methylphenidate in Parkinson's disease patients with Freezing of Gait, relative to placebo. <br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
First secondary outcome is the performance on the motor tasks of all groups, compared to the performance on the cognitive task and dual task, by comparing the number of correct responses.<br><br /><br /><br>Second secondary outcome is the cerebral activation pattern during shifting between motor task compared to the cerebral activation patterns during shifting between cognitive tasks and during dual tasks in all groups.<br>
