In this group, individuals will be included in a game program that will last for 3 days a week for a total of 6 weeks and 45 minutes a day. Individuals will use the IVR to rehabilitate functions that are frequently used in daily life through task-oriented games. The IVR device will be placed on the head of the individual by closing the eyes of the individual and the Leap Motion device will be used to enable individuals to see their own hands in a virtual reality environment. In order to ensure the safety of individuals, practices shall be carried out with the individual sitting in the chair and leaning against the back. A total of 3 different games will be used for upper extremity function, each game will be 15 minutes and the total session time will be 45 minutes.

Motor imagery will be performed with the eyes closed. In addition, for the safety of the individual, the individual will sit comfortably in a chair in a quiet environment and sit back. In the motor imagery group, individuals will be shown videos of the 3 games for 2 times in the IVR group and will be asked to imagine that they perform the same functions in the IVR games. The motor imagery will be 3 days a week for a total of 6 weeks and 45 minutes per day (including rest periods).

Individuals in this group will be randomly recruited from hospitalized stroke volunteers. Since these individuals receive routine rehabilitation 5 days a week, they will be evaluated at the beginning and end of 18 sessions over a total period of 6 weeks. Conventional physiotherapy will include normal joint movements, muscle strengthening exercises, balance and mobility exercises, and exercises to improve daily life activity.
