Strategy Training and Pets for Stroke Recovery
This study is looking at how "Strategy Training" can help adult stroke survivors improve their thinking skills and get more involved in their community. Strategy Training involves setting personal goals, evaluating your progress, and learning problem-solving techniques with a therapist's guidance. Researchers also want to understand if having a pet plays a role in these improvements. You might be able to join if you are an adult who had a stroke at least three months ago, live at home with a pet, and have some cognitive (thinking) difficulties and limitations in your daily activities. The main goal is to see how engaged participants are in their rehabilitation activities over six weeks. The current recruitment status is unclear.

What this trial measures
- Mean engagement score as measured by the Pittsburgh Rehabilitation Participation ScaleBaseline to 6 weeks
The scale is a valid and reliable criterion referenced measure that assesses engagement in rehabilitation therapy sessions. Each session is scored by the occupational therapist, 1 (no participation, refusal) to 6 (excellent participation). Scores are averaged across the 10-15 intervention sessions to generate the mean engagement score.
