Brief Summary   This study aimed to test the trunk control in people after stroke and its correlation with trunk muscle strength and balance confidence during daily activities. Study findings showed that the trunk performance was poor in people with stroke and it was postively related to trunk mucle weakness and the balance confidence capacity. This study addresses the need to include trunk control and strength regimes during rehabilitation so that stroke patients could participate their daily functioning with better balance confidence.
