Abstract
This study described and compared use of supported-standing and stepping devices by young children with cerebral palsy, Gross-Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) levels III-V following power mobility introduction. Data was collected at two time-points, 5-6 months apart, for 42 participants, aged 18-80 months, using the Home Use of Technology for CHildren (HUTCH). Supported-standing and stepping device choice and time in each device remained stable over 6 months. Associations between device use and three functional classifications were examined. Children with more impaired motor, postural and manual abilities were more likely to use a supine stander rather than a prone/upright stander or no stander. Children at GMFCS V tended to use hands-free stepping devices, while support-arms stepping devices were more common for children at GMFCS IV. Only children at GMFCS III used convertible stepping devices. Using power mobility, standers and supported-stepping devices was feasible and 19/34 classified at GMFCS IV/V used all three devices over 6 months. A key finding was that introduction of power mobility did not reduce use of supported-stepping devices at any GMFCS level. Use of multiple upright positioning and mobility devices may assist children with limited mobility to be actively engaged and participate in daily life.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
