Table 1 Clinical characteristics of individuals with cerebral palsy (n = 17). Gross motor function classification system (Palisano et al., 1997), Manual ability classification system (Eliasson et al., 2006), communication function classification system (Hidecker et al., 2011), visual function classification system (Baranello et al., 2019). These scales classify the person into 5 levels of function, lower scores indicating higher function
