However, the restraint of the less-affected upper extremity and intensive training protocol during CIMT may decrease children's motivation and increase the therapist's workload and family's burden. A kinect-based CIMT program, aiming to mitigate the concerns of CIMT, has been developed. The preliminary results demonstrated that this program was child-friendly and feasible for improving upper extremity motor function. However, whether the kinect-based CIMT can achieve better or at least comparable effects to that of traditional CIMT (i.e., therapist-based CIMT) should be further investigated. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the effects of kinect-based CIMT with that of therapist-based CIMT on upper extremity and trunk motor control and on daily motor function in children with UCP.enCerebral palsy; Children; Constraint-induced therapy; Upper extremity; Virtual reality[SDGs]SDG3journal article10.1186/s12984-023-01135-6367031702-s2.0-85146875541https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85146875541
