dc.description.abstractWe present a computer-based environment for rehabilitation of prospective memory in stroke survivors. Prospective memory (PM), or remembering to perform actions in the future, is of crucial importance for everyday life. This kind of memory is often impaired in stroke survivors and can interfere with independent living. Fifteen participants were recruited to participate in our study consisting of 10 sessions. The participants were first trained on how to develop visual images in order to remember time- and event-based prospective memory tasks. After the visual imagery training,participants practiced their PM skills using videos, and later in a virtual reality (VR) environment. The results show a significant improvement on PM skills as measured by the CAMPROMPT test, which remained stable 4 weeks after the treatment. VR-based training was well accepted by the participants.en
