Interventions
BEHAVIORAL

Electrical stimulation cue

A single 30-minute session is provided. Electrodes are attached to the cubital fossa, and stimulation is delivered at a frequency that increases up to 70 Hz as the elbow joint approaches the target angle. Target angles are set between 0 degrees and 120 degrees, based on each participant's available range of motion determined during the initial assessment. Participants adjust their elbow joint angle to match the provided target angle using feedback from the electrical stimulation. When the elbow joint angle matches the target angle, the maximum frequency is applied to the cubital fossa. Participants match their elbow joint angle to the target angle based on the given frequency.

BEHAVIORAL

Visual stimulation cue

A single 30-minute session is provided. The difference between the current elbow joint angle and the pre-set target angle is displayed on a screen using two colored needles (a red needle for the target angle and a black needle for the current elbow joint angle). The target angle is set within each participant's available range of motion based on the initial assessment. Participants continue the intervention by adjusting their elbow angle using the visual feedback. When the elbow joint angle matches the target angle, the two needles overlap. Based on this visual cue, participants adjust their elbow joint angle to match the target angle.

BEHAVIORAL

No cue

A single 30-minute session is provided. The target angle is determined within each participant's available range of motion based on the initial assessment. Throughout the session, participants receive verbal feedback from the assessor and adjust their elbow joint angle accordingly to match the target angle.
