Accepted

STROKE PATIENTS : Inclusion Criteria: * having a chronic stroke (\>6 months) * aged 18-90 years * with demonstrate a stroke lesion on brain imaging. Exclusion Criteria: * difficulty in understanding or executing commands * drug/alcohol abuse * severe aphasia / cognitive deficits interfering with study * inability to voluntarily move the affected arm (i.e. complete paralysis of the arm) * multiple strokes / dementia / psychiatric condition * botulinum toxin injections (to be evaluated) HEALTHY INDIVIDUALS : Inclusion Criteria: \- 18-90 years Exclusion Criteria: * neurological conditions interfering with the study * drug/alcohol abuse * pyschiatric condition

Primary outcome measure(s)

bi-SAT, bimanual Speed/Accurady Trade-off measured by the REAplan robot — change between baseline (Day 1) and after training (Day 3)
bimanual Speed/Accurady Trade-off: mathematical computation of the relationship bewteen speed and accuracy
bi-CO, bimanual Coordination factor measured by the REAplan robot — change between baseline (Day 1) and after training (Day 3)
bimanual Coordination factor, mathematical measure of the phase coherence between speeds of both arms
bi-Force, bimanual Coordination factor measured by the REAplan robot — change between baseline (Day 1) and after training (Day 3)
bimanual forces, forces exerted in the wrong direction by each arm (Newtons)
