Title: Effects of Computer-aided Interlimb Force Coupling Training on Paretic Hand and Arm Motor Control Following Chronic Stroke
Brief Summary: The investigators hypothesized that bilateral handgrip force training would result in significant improvements in paretic hand, arm movements and daily functional performances. In order to investigate whether the improvement of paretic hand could facilitate the motor recovery of paretic arm and functional performances, the investigators also hypothesized that motor recovery and functional performances improvements of paretic arm and hand have strongly correlation.
