About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

The aim of this study is to compare the motivation of the participants, upper extremity skills and daily living activity skills of classical occupational therapy practices in children diagnosed with cerebral palsy with therapy practices using Social Robot Nao in addition to classical occupational therapy practices.

The 2 groups in the trial

  • Social Robot Application GroupTreatment being tested

    The negatively affected characteristics of children with Cerebral Palsy will be determined by the occupational therapist together with their families. Activities that they cannot do in daily life will be implemented using the Social Robot Nao within the occupational therapy application to improve their upper extremity skills and motivation.

    Treatment: Social Robot Application

  • Daily Living Activities (ADL) Training Program GroupExisting treatment, for comparison

    The negatively affected characteristics of children with cerebral palsy will be determined by the occupational therapist together with their families. Occupational therapy will be applied to the activities they cannot do in daily life by developing their upper extremity skills and motivation.

    Treatment: Daily Living Activities (ADL) Training Program
