In the researchers' words

The purpose of this research is to compare improvements between the rehab intervention with walking practice using the robotic exoskeleton versus walking practice that is vigorous enough to keep participants' heart rate over a certain target level during physical therapy sessions. Investigators want to compare improvements in your walking function and mental health that occur after 20 interventions. The study also aims to evaluate if participants' mental health, social support, and health literacy affect attendance at physical therapy sessions.
