RESULT In experimental group, there were significant differences in MVPT-V(p<0.05), FRT(p<0.05), and FIM(p<0.05). In control group, here were significant differences in MVPT-V(p<0.05). there were significant differences in MVPT-V(p<0.05), FRT(p<0.05), and FIM(p<0.05) between groups.
CONCLUSION task-oriented training program improved that visual perception, standing balance and abilities of daily living activities.
