Time perspective: CROSS_SECTIONAL
Sampling method: PROBABILITY_SAMPLE
Study population: The study population are individuals with a stroke diagnosis since a minimum of 6 months prior to the study. These individuals have to present persistent physical disability due to their stroke. The investigators will recruit individuals with stroke who participate in organised adaptive sports programs on a regular basis, as well as individuals who do not participate in any oranised adaptive sports programs.

Brief summary: The objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of engaging in adaptive sports for individuals who have had a stroke. The study is cross-sectional, participants with stroke will be recruited and divided into two groups: the first group composed of individuals with stroke who regularly participate in adaptive sports; and the second of individuals with stroke who do not regularly participate in adaptive sports. The two groups will have to be similar in terms of demographic variables (age, gender, time since beginning of stroke). A series of parameters will be tested, on one occasion for each participant. The two groups will then be compared to one another.
