תקציר	The Motor Assessment Scale (MAS) is a clinician-rated, performance-based measure of motor function specifically developed for stroke survivors. Created by Carr, Shepherd, and colleagues (1985) at the University of Sydney, the MAS evaluates 8 fundamental motor tasks reflecting functional mobility and motor control relevant to post-stroke recovery. The MAS has become a standard outcome measure in stroke rehabilitation research and clinical practice, widely used to assess and track motor recovery following acute and chronic stroke.	The Upper Extremity Functional Scale (UEFS) is a self-report outcome measure designed to quantify functional limitation and capacity in the upper extremity (arm, hand) across everyday activities. Various versions exist; the most commonly used in occupational therapy and rehabilitation derive from adaptations of functional capacity assessment frameworks, measuring activities such as eating, dressing, grooming, reaching, grasping, and fine motor tasks. The UEFS is widely used in occupational therapy, orthopedic rehabilitation, and ergonomic assessment to track improvement in arm/hand function following injury, surgery, or therapy.
