Motor Learning for Upper Limb Hemiparesis After Stroke

Motor Learning for Individuals With Upper Limb Hemiparesis After Stroke

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 12 Sept 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The purpose of this research is to learn about practice conditions that may benefit stroke survivors when learning to use their more affected arm to perform a task. Participants will be randomized into two groups. Experimental and control groups will differ by one practice variable that will not be disclosed until completion of testing procedures. Participants will practice a motor task using both their more and less affected arms for two consecutive days. A Pre-Test will be administered on Day 1 before the training begins. Immediate Transfer of Learning will be administered on Day 2 after the completion of training. Delayed (24-hour) Retention and Transfer Tests will be administered on Day 3.
