Summary

The investigators propose to develop a Telerehabilitation approach to working memory training for patients experiencing working memory deficits post stroke. The investigators have currently developed a game-like computerized working memory training program that can be accessed via the internet for research purposes. The investigators propose to refine the website to focus more on clinically based training, and to evaluate the feasibility and initial effectiveness of this approach in a pilot study with participants after stroke.
