Official title
Validity and Reliability of Neuroscience-Based Visual Laser Feedback Map Tests in Individuals With Motoric Cognitive Risk Syndrome
Overview
This study aims to evaluate the validity and reliability of neuroscience-based visual laser feedback map tests in individuals with Motoric Cognitive Risk Syndrome (MCRS). The developed assessment protocol integrates visuospatial processing, reaction time, and upper extremity motor control within a single task. Construct validity will be examined through correlations with reaction time and proprioception measurements, and test-retest reliability will be assessed to determine measurement consistency.
Primary outcome measures
- Visual-laser feedback map test performance [Time frame: Baseline]
Secondary outcome measures (4)
- Reaction time [Time frame: Baseline]
- Shoulder proprioception [Time frame: Baseline]
- Test-retest reliability [Time frame: Baseline and 7-day follow-up]
- Measurement error [Time frame: Baseline and 7-day follow-up]
