Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 64/6 (novembre-décembre 2010) . - p. 929-934 Titre : Chronometry of mentally versus physically practiced tasks in people with stroke Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Andy J. WU ; et al. ; Jun YIN ; Valerie HERMANN Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : p. 929-934 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Mouvement corporel  Activité intellectuelle  Accident cérébrovasculaire Résumé : OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to determine whether chronometry is appropriate for monitoring engagement in mental practice by comparing the time taken for people with chronic stroke to mentally and physically practice five tasks. METHOD. Eighteen stroke participants mentally and physically rehearsed each task. Time was recorded for each of the three trials per task. RESULTS. Participants required significantly more time to physically practice than to mentally practice tasks (all p < .05). A significantly greater amount of time for mental practice of the more-affected arm than for the less-affected arm was also observed (p < .01). CONCLUSION. Because there was no agreement between the time taken to mentally and physically practice the tasks, chronometry does not appear to be valid for monitoring mental practice in this population.
