Summary

This study was planned to investigate the validity and reliability of the Kinesthetic and Visual Imagery Questionnaire in patients with acute stroke. The objectives of the research are: 1. To evaluate the validity of the Kinesthetic and Visual Imaginery Questionnaire in acute stroke patients aged 50-75 years 2. To evaluate the test-retest reliability of the Kinesthetic and Visual Imaginery Questionnaire in acute stroke patients aged 50-75 years

Detailed description

Motor imagery (MI) is the mental representation of movement without any real body movement. MI is a complex and cognitive process involving the use of sensory and perceptual memories related to motor movements.Various studies using brain imaging techniques have found that during motor imagery, brain areas similar to voluntary movement are activated or the motor cortex can be stimulated. These findings suggest that stroke patients who cannot physically move their limbs can stimulate brain regions responsible for motor movements using motor imagery. The Kinesthetic and Visual Imaginery Questionnaire (KVIQ) is a motor imagery questionnaire developed for people who need to be guided for different reasons and cannot perform complex movements. Evaluate both visual and kinesthetic dimensions of motor images. This study was planned because of the need for evaluation of motor imagery for stroke patients, who mostly have motor and sensory problems.
