About this trial
There are very few studies in the literature examining the effect of age on motor imagery ability in children with cerebral palsy. To our knowledge, no studies have investigated the impact of other related factors. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of age, sex, body mass index, Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) level, and Manual Ability Classification System (MACS) level on motor imagery abilities in children with cerebral palsy.
H1-1: Age has an effect on motor imagery abilities in children with cerebral palsy.
H1-2: Sex has an effect on motor imagery abilities in children with cerebral palsy.
H1-3: Clinical type has an effect on motor imagery abilities in children with cerebral palsy.
H1-4: Body mass index has an effect on motor imagery abilities in children with cerebral palsy.
H1-5: GMFCS level has an effect on motor imagery abilities in children with cerebral palsy.
H1-6: MACS level has an effect on motor imagery abilities in children with cerebral palsy.
