Summary

This study will test the hypothesis that the combination of low-moderate to severe motor deficits in the paretic arm and persistent motor deficits in the less-impaired arm limits functional independence in chronic stroke survivors. We, therefore, predict that intense remediation, focused on improving the speed, coordination, and accuracy of the less-impaired arm should improve functional independence.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Less-Impaired Arm Training

Participants receive virtual reality and manipulation training in their less impaired arm.

BEHAVIORAL

Contralesional Arm Comparison

Participants receive therapy in their paretic arm, based on the best-practices framework for arm recovery post stroke.
