简要总结
The main purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between motor imagery capacity and functional mobility, walking and balance in children with diplegic type cerebral palsy.
详细描述
This study will be conducted using a cross-sectional and correlational screening model to examine the relationship between motor imagery ability and functional mobility, walking, and balance in children with diplegic cerebral palsy. Data collection will be conducted through one-on-one assessments after obtaining written consent from volunteer participants and their families. The data collection tools used in the study are listed below: Demographic Information Form, Motor Imagery Ability Assessment, Mental Stopwatch Paradigm, Functional Mobility, and Gait Assessment.

结局指标
主要结局
Mental Stopwatch Paradigm
时间窗: 24-48 hours
A mental stopwatch will be used to assess explicit MI capacity. This paradigm compares the time between the actual movement duration and the duration of a similar imagined task.
Laterality Task (Choice Task):
时间窗: 24-48 hours
Laterality Task (Choice Task): Implicit Motor Imagery capacity will be measured through a laterality task, which involves deciding which side a limb belongs to. Right-left discrimination of the foot will be assessed using the "Recognize Foot" application developed by the Neuro Orthopaedic Institute
Functional Mobility using the Functional Mobility Scale (FMS)
时间窗: 24-48 hours
Functional Mobility: Functional Mobility will be assessed using the Functional Mobility Scale (FMS)
Functional Mobility using the Timed Up and Go test
时间窗: 24-48 hours
Functional Mobility: Functional Mobility will be assessed using the Timed Up and Go test.
The Gillette Functional Assessment Questionnaire
时间窗: 24-48 hours
Gait assessment: The Gillette Functional Assessment Questionnaire is a self- or observer-based assessment tool, minimum score 22 maximum score 88
