The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between fear of falling and motor recovery, stroke duration, trunk control, and balance in stroke patients.

History of at least one fall
Ability to walk 10 meters independently or with an assistive device
Having another neurological disease (except for stroke)
Having a surgery upper or lower extremity in the last 6 months
Unwillingness to participate
Stroke patients

The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)
The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is a 30-point scale comprising 16 items across 11 categories used to screen for cognitive impairment in stroke and other neurological conditions, where a score of 26 or above indicates normal cognitive function.
Brunnstrom Recovery Stages of Upper and Lower Extremity
The Brunnstrom recovery stages are a staging system that shows the motor recovery in patients with stroke. The Brunnstrom Recovery Stages of Upper and Lower Extremity of six stages. Higher stages indicate better motor function.
Falls Efficacy Scale-International (FES-I)
The Falls Efficacy Scale-International (FES-I) is a short, easy to administer tool that measures the level of concern about falling during 16 social and physical activities inside and outside the home whether or not the person actually does the activity. The level of concern is measured on a four-point Likert scale (1=not at all concerned to 4=very concerned). Total score is between 16 and 64 points. Lower scores mean a better outcome.
Trunk Impairment Scale (TIS)
The Trunk Impairment Scale (TIS) evaluates post-stroke trunk control across three subscales (static sitting balance, dynamic sitting balance, and coordination) with a maximum total score of 23, where higher scores reflect better trunk function.
