The study is planned to determine the relationship between chewing performance level and gross motor function, and trunk postural control in cerebral palsy (CP).
The study is planned to determine the relationship between chewing performance level and gross motor function, and trunk postural control in cerebral palsy (CP). Chewing performance level will be determined by the chewing performance scale. The Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) will be used to determine gross motor function levels. Segmental Assessment of Trunk Control (SATCo) will be used to measure trunk control. The correlations between chewing performance level and gross motor function, and trunk postural control will be assessed. The Chi-square test will also be used to compare GMFCS levels and trunk control in children with and without chewing disorders.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Children with cerebral palsy | Children with a diagnosis of spastic cerebral palsy aged between 2 to 12 years who will be referred by pediatric neurologists will be included. Children under the age of 24 months, and used any medicine and/or oral appliances that could affect the chewing performance, will be excluded. Chewing evaluation will be performed. |

| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chewing evaluation | Other | Chewing evaluation will be performed. An experienced physical therapist who will take a scale training session will do the chewing evaluation according to the chewing performance scale.This scale classifies chewing function on an ordinal scale with five levels between 0 and 4 based on the sequence of functional movements during chewing. |
