Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine whether individuals with spastic diplegia exhibit anticipatory activation of postural muscles associated with voluntary arm movement while standing.Conclusion: These findings suggested that individuals with spastic diplegia have the ability to anticipate the effects of disturbance of posture and equilibrium caused by arm movement and reaching test and to activate postural muscles in advance of focal muscles. However the anticipatory increase in postural muscle activity is insufficient in individuals with spastic diplegia
