Experimenteel: Multicomponent rotation training
Participants received 30 minutes of conventional physiotherapy and 15 minutes of sequential laterality, motor imagery, and mental rotation training, three times per week for six weeks.
|
Participants received 30 minutes of conventional physiotherapy followed by 15 minutes of structured training, three times per week for six weeks.
The training progressed sequentially through laterality recognition, motor imagery, and mental rotation.
Laterality training involved identifying right- and left-hand images.
Motor imagery training involved imagining the hand positions and movements shown in the images without performing an observable movement.
Mental rotation training involved mentally rotating figures and selecting the correct response.

Sham-vergelijker: Sham training
Participants received 30 minutes of conventional physiotherapy and 15 minutes of active visual-attention training using neutral objects, colors, shapes, and symbols, three times per week for six weeks.
|
Participants received 30 minutes of conventional physiotherapy followed by 15 minutes of active visual-attention control training, three times per week for six weeks.
The training included images of neutral objects, colors, geometric shapes, and symbols that did not depict body parts.
Participants classified the images according to color, shape, size, position, or similarity and difference.

The Purdue Spatial Visualization Test
Tijdsspanne: Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention.
|
The Purdue Spatial Visualization Test a widely used mental rotation tests, consists of 30 three-dimensional spatial perception questions.
|

The Symbol Digit Modalities Test
Tijdsspanne: Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention.
|
The Symbol Digit Modalities Test is a widely used assessment tool for measuring information-processing speed in patients with MS.
|
Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention.
|
|
Nine-Hole Peg Test
Tijdsspanne: Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention.
|
In the Nine-Hole Peg Test, nine wooden pegs were placed into a wooden board containing nine holes using one hand.
|
Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention.
|
|
Kinesthetic and Visual Imagery Questionnaire
Tijdsspanne: Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention.
|
Motor imagery ability was evaluated and scored using 20 items examining movements of different body parts in a sitting position, with two subscales assessing kinesthetic and visual imagery abilities.
The total score ranges from 10 to 50, with each subscale ranging from 5 to 25.
|
Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention.
|
|
Grip Strength
Tijdsspanne: Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention
|
Grip strength was assessed using a Jamar hand dynamometer.
|
Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention
|
|
Abilhand
Tijdsspanne: Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention.
|
Abilhand is a patient-reported scale used to determine the perceived level of difficulty individuals experience when using their hands during activities of daily living.
The Abilhand total raw score ranges from 0 to 46, with higher scores indicating better self-perceived manual ability in performing daily bimanual activities.
|
Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention.
|
|
The Action Research Arm Test (ARAT)
Tijdsspanne: Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention.
|
The Action Research Arm Test was used to evaluate upper extremity functional capacity and consists of four subdomains: grasp, grip, pinch, and gross movement.
|
Baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention.
