About this trial

The aim of this study is to measure task-specific maximal strength and motor fatigability during functional daily activities involving the upper limbs in typically developing children. The focus is on determining the test-retest reliability of these measurements. In addition, the results are compared with existing data from children with cerebral palsy (CP). Through this comparison, we aim to gain insight into the motor limitations experienced by children with CP when performing everyday tasks.
