NCT03440749

Brief Summary

Cerebral palsy (CP) affects the motor function but also the cognitive function of the child. Physical activity brings motor and cognitive benefits and appears as an important aspect of the therapy that is offered to them. The child is seating in front of a computer, seating comfortably on a chair during 1 hour. The experimental task consists in learning a sequence of taps on "Serial reaction time task" type buzzers (SRTT) in which the child must press a buzzer corresponding to one of the 4 squares that on the screen. The sequence corresponds to 10 steps in a particular order.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Time reaction (TR)

    \- The TR is the Reaction Time between the appearance of the stimulus and the response. It represents the speed with which the child pressed the key in response to the lighting of the square.

    1 hour

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of errors

    1 hour

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Multisensory integration degree

    1 hour

  • Degree of synchronization

    1 hour

Study Arms (2)

Children with Cerebral Palsy (PC)

EXPERIMENTAL

Serial reaction time task: repeating a sequence of movements according to the luminous stimuli

Other: luminous stimuli

Control Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Serial reaction time task: of movements according to the luminous stimuli

Other: luminous stimuli

Interventions

The child is placed in front of a screen on which 4 luminous stimuli are presented on a horizontal plane. Four buzzers are placed in front of him, each buzzer corresponds to the position of a stimulus. Child had to push the buzzer corresponding to the place of the luminous stimuli.

Also known as: Serial reaction time task
