Outcome measures
Primary outcome
The primary outcome measurements are level of memory self efficacy, level of quality of life and level of social participation.
Secondary outcome
Objective memory functioning and psychosocial factors like coping, depression and personality are measured.
Background summary
Memory self-efficacy (MSE) describes the level of mastery and control one feels about it's own memory functioning. In healthy elderly subjects, MSE can be lowered despite intact objecvtive memory functioning. An improvement in MSE in these elderly leads to increased social participation and quality of life and less complaints about memory functioning. In stroke, memory deficits occur frequently. Nevertheless, effects of increase of MSE have not been studied in this population. This study aims to increase MSE in stroke patients by means of a group-intervention and measures the effects of increased MSE on quality of life and social participation.
Study objective
An increase in subjective memory performance will result in increased quality of life and social participation.
Study design
Measurements are taken within three weeks before the first training group, within 10 days after the training group, 6 months and 12 months after the training group.
Intervention
MSE-intervention versus peer-groups.
