Task Performance of two exemplar participants. a-c Participant from the No Spasticity group: Female, Right-handed, 70ā€‰years old, 7ā€‰months post-stroke, Left-Affected, MAS of 0, CMSA arm (at intake) of 3. d-f Participant from the Spasticity group: Female, Right handed, 35ā€‰years old, 6ā€‰months post-stroke, Left-Affected, MAS of 1+, CMSA arm (at intake) of 3. a and d show the hand traces for the Visually Guided Reaching task. Only the reaches out to the target are shown. B and E show the hand speeds for the reaches out to each target. Colour scheme matches the traces in a and d. c and f reflect the performance on the Arm Position Matching task where the robot moved the affected left arm to four locations (solid symbols ā€“ green line represents the perimeter of the targets) and the participant matched the position with the less-affected right arm (open symbols - blue line represents the perimeter of the targets). Matching performance is mirrored and displayed over the left side for comparison purposes. Ellipses around the icons reflect the spatial variability (1 standard deviation) of all matching trials at that target position. Task Scores are shown below each (Task Scoreā€‰>ā€‰1.96 indicates that performance fell outside 95% range of healthy control behaviour)
