Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: participants must have been diagnosed with hemiplegia due to stroke, scored 24 or higher on the Korean Mini-Mental State Examination (K-MMSE), were able to communicate effectively, and could perform independent gait for at least 14 m, regardless of the use of gait aids. Participants were also required to have a Functional Ambulation Category score of 3 or higher, indicating the ability to walk under direction or observation without physical contact. Additionally, participants needed to understand the purpose of the study and provide written informed consent.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: participants with unilateral neglect, spatiotemporal disorders, psychiatric disorders, other neurological conditions besides stroke, severe rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, a history of orthopedic surgery affecting the musculoskeletal system, sensory impairments such as hearing or visual disabilities, medical conditions (like angina or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) that could impact the cardiovascular or respiratory system, and cognitive impairments preventing them from understanding treatment instructions.
