Goal: Various studies suggest a negative association between spatial neglect and motor outcomes after stroke (Barrett \& Muzaffar 2014) (Kwakkel 2014). Our goal is to assess: * The longitudinal interaction of the recovery of spatial neglect with the recovery of motor function and outcomes (such as paresis, sitting balance and standing balance) * Whether the association is different across the different subtypes of spatial neglect (visuospatial/personal/ADL-related) * The role of compensation strategies for balance control in patients with spatial neglect To do so, we will perform a longitudinal cohort study in which we will repetitively assess post-stroke patients using a comprehensive assessment approach for both spatial neglect and motor outcomes. With regards to neglect, we will evaluate various aspects of both visuospatial and personal neglect. For motor outcomes, we will combine clinical and instrumented (biomechanical) assessment methods to evaluate post-stroke recovery of leg paresis, (sitting and standing) balance and gait.
