Brief Summary: Stroke is the leading cause of disability and diminished quality of living that frequently includes impairments of postural control and upper extremity UE function The interaction of posture and UE coupling in terms of movement planning initiation and execution is not well understood StartReact responses triggered by a loud acoustic stimulus LAS during the planning and preparation of goal intended actions has been used to probe the state of brainstem neuronal excitability related to posture and movement sequencing The purpose of this study is to examine posture and goal-directed movement planning and execution using startReact responses and to evaluate posture and UE movement sequence during reaching while standing in individuals with chronic hemiparesis and healthy controls Secondly the investigators will determine the modulatory role of the cortical premotor areas PMAs in startReact responses in healthy controls and in persons with stroke by using transcranial direct current stimulation tDCS to up- or down-regulate PMAs excitability
