Brief Summary
Scope and Limitations of the Project This project aims to examine the relationship between hand grip strength, trunk control, and functional performance in individuals with mild intellectual disability (MID). Individuals with MID face significant challenges in daily life activities and social interactions due to deficiencies in motor skills. Hand grip strength is considered a fundamental indicator of overall muscle strength and level of independence, while trunk control plays a crucial role in both postural stability and dynamic movement coordination. The project seeks to scientifically evaluate the physical and functional parameters of these individuals and highlight the impact of motor control on daily living activities. The study is limited to individuals aged 12-18, including those with intellectual disabilities attending rehabilitation centers and healthy individuals visiting hospitals. While this limitation allows for a focused examination of the needs of a specific group, it may also restrict the generalizability of the findings to the broader population.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * Clinical diagnosis of mild mental retardation * Individuals aged between 12 and 18 years * Sufficient physical ability to perform hand grip strength measurements Exclusion Criteria: * Impaired trunk control due to an orthopedic or neurological disorder * Psychological or physical conditions that prevent active participation in the assessments * Mental illnesses or physical disorders in otherwise healthy individuals that may affect measurement outcomes
