Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Stroke patients
General cognitive level will be evaluated with the Standardized Mini Mental Test to determine the eligibility of the participants for the study. The American National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale will be applied to determine the stroke severity and functional status of the participants. The reliability and validity of the eight-shape gait test and the double-task octagonal gait test will be examined. The reliability of the tests will be evaluated by calculating the test-retest method, standard error measurement and minimum detectable change values. The initial test and retest will be evaluated two days apart. The concurrent validity of the tests will be evaluated by the correlation between the timed get-and-go test, the 10-meter walk test, and the modified four-square step test.
Evaluation
The Standardized Mini Mental Test, The American National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, the Figure of 8 Walk Test, the double-task octagonal gait test, the timed up-and-go test, the 10-meter walk test, and the modified four-square step test will be applied to the stroke patients.
