Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Self-Action Observation (s-AO Group)

Participants will watch their own actions during an upper extremity functionality test.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Action observation Training

Intervention Type OTHER

Action observation training is a relatively new rehabilitation approach in which the subject is asked to carefully observe the actions presented through a video clip or performed by an operator.
