Overview

The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between lower extremity selectivity and gait in children with cerebral palsy. 32 volunteer children with CP between the ages of 5-20 will participate in the study. The Selective Control Assessment of the Lower Extremity (SCALE) questionnaire will be used to assess lower extremity selectivity, and the Edinburgh observational gait scale will be used to assess gait. Both assessments are observational.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Between the ages of 5-20
  • Diagnosed with CP

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Medical complications that limit participation in assessments (for example, severe visual impairment)
  • Lower extremity surgery or botox surgery in the last 6 months
  • Mental problems that cannot understand the commands given
