Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Compare the evaluation of the point light display relative to conventional rehabilitation [Rehabilitation during 3 weeks]
The time to realize the time up and go test will be assessed at inclusion and at the end of the program.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Compare the evaluation of the point light display on functional recovery [At the end of the program (3 weeks max)]
Test score the time up and go and test score questionnary WOMAC (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, Bellamy et al., 1988).
- Compare the evaluation of the point light display on the detection and action recognition [At the end of the program (3 weeks max)]
Percentages of correct recognition of actions on the point light display
- Compare the evaluation of the point light display on the feeling of self-efficacy personal [At the end of the program (3 weeks max)]
Test score questionnary of self-efficacy personal (Dumont et al., 2000).
