Summary

Research shows that exercising at home can improve arm and hand movement after a stroke. Unfortunately, it can be hard to exercise enough to make a difference in arm and hand movement after stroke. In this study, the investigators will try to determine things that make it easy or hard for Veterans to exercise their arm and hand after a stroke. In this study, the investigators will recruit Veteran stroke survivors who have difficulty using their arm and hand after a stroke. First, the investigators will administer surveys and questionnaires to get Veteran stroke survivors' perspectives on their self-confidence, mood, sleep, and more. Then, the investigators will ask them to track their home exercise using a wearable movement tracker (like a smart watch). Then, Veteran stroke survivors will meet with a researcher to talk about their experience doing home exercise and why they think it was easy or hard to do.
