Investigation of the Effects of Temporal Adaptation Approach in Post-Discharge Stroke Individuals

Abstract Introduction: Stroke is a disease that makes it difficult to participate in daily life activities by creating functional losses. Healthy temporal adaptation can increase and support engagement in meaningful activities. This study aims to analyze the effect of the temporal adaptation approach on the post-discharge occupational engagement of individuals with stroke.

Methods: This study is a randomized controlled trial with 1 month follow-up. While the TAA approach was applied to the first group, the general condition of the second group was followed during the study. Canadian Occupational Performance Measue was administered to assess occupational performance and satisfaction, and Occupational Balance Questionnaire was for occupational balance.

Inclusion criteria

  • The inclusion criteria used for this study are as follows: being in the chronic phase of the stroke disease (˃6 months) and score of ˃26 on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA).

Exclusion criteria

  • Exclusion criteria used are as follows: diagnosis of a psychiatric illness strongly affects the participation to daily life activities according to medical reports (such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder), a physical condition other than stroke that requires medical follow-up (fracture, osteoporosis, etc.) and aphasia that would affect the intervention via interview

Treatment and study plan

Temporal Adaptation Approach

Behavioral

the temporal adaptation: It includes giving importance to the use of time, choosing meaningful activities, adjusting the time used during these activities and improving it. Such adaptation serves to improve an individual's quality of life, health, and occupational participation.

Primary outcomes

  1. Canadian Occupational Performance Measure

    Time frame: 30 minutes

    The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure is client-defined; and consists of both a performance (objective) and a satisfaction (subjective) dimension.

  2. Occupational Balance Questionnaire

    Time frame: 10 minutes

    The Occupational Balance Questionnaire is a scale that measures self-rated occupational balance occupational balance in different dimensions. The purpose of the scale is to measure satisfaction according to the amount and variety of daily activities of the individual and to define their occupational balance according to the obtained results.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Modified Occupational Questionnaire

    Time frame: 15 minutes

    The Modified Occupational Questionnaire is a measure of meaningful time use. Basically, the Modified Occupational Questionnaire focuses on two important objectives: what the person was doing or how he/she used their time, and how the person felt about it. The Modified Occupational Questionnaire is a time diary that asks respondents to report on what they do ''on a typical day'' in hour blocks from 05.00 to 05.00 the following day.
