      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Single blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Simple randomization: Participants are assigned to intervention and control groups based on even/odd coding. According to the entry of individuals with the inclusion criteria for the plan, the individuals with the odd code in the control group and the enen code in the intervention group will be placed, Blinding description: This study is single blind and only the examiner dose not know which patients belong to which group.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group:  It Includes motor-imagery exercise for upper extremity. For this purpose, we have designed a simple method to give patients more precise and more accurate training. The functions of the upper extremity (anti-spastic tone), which is important in activity of daily living are performed. These include:  abduction and external rotation of shoulder, elbow extension, forearm supination, wrist extension, and flexion of the metacarpal-phalanges (MP) joints of hand. These exercises are mentally and with closed eyes. Intervention group also receive the treatment of the control group. Intervention 2: Control group:  They receive conventional rehabilitation exercises. These include programs for motor function, exercises affecting muscle tone, upper limb training, exercises for decreasing of pain and edema in upper limb.</i_freetext>
