Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Participants must be 18 years or greater and will be recruited from all racial, ethnic and gender categories.
- Veterans with chronic stroke (n=50) must:
- 1\) have ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke, primary intracerebral hematoma, or subarachnoid hemorrhage with at least 6 month chronicity
- 2\) demonstrate ability to perform the interview and complete questionnaires
- 3\) endorse mild to severe psychosocial impairment on the Brief Inventory of Psychosocial Functioning (B-IPF; Rodriguez et al., 2018), a 7-item measure developed specifically on Veterans with impairment in important domains of daily psychosocial function
- Caregiver/Loved ones (n=25) must be familiar with the trajectory of function and recovery of the identified Veteran with chronic stroke.
- Rehabilitation providers (n=25) of Veterans with chronic stroke must provide stroke-related care in the VA Healthcare system including (but not limited to) physical, speech, and occupational therapists, neurologists, and neuropsychologists.
Exclusion
- Veterans with chronic stroke will be excluded for moderate to severe global aphasia that precludes qualitative interview completion, if those individuals cannot or do not wish to complete study procedures via written responses. (Note that to avoid limiting generalizability, these individuals will be invited to complete the questionnaire-based assessments in Aim 2).
- Participants will also be excluded for comorbid conditions that impact recall of stroke recovery history (e.g., dementia or psychosis).
- Caregiver/Loved ones will be excluded if the veteran stroke survivor has not provided consent for caregiver/loved one participation.
