- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>Primary outcome measure: Quality of life<br /><br>The main purpose of this present study is to asses the relation between<br /><br>cognitive functioning and quality of life. To asses the multi-dimensional<br /><br>character of quality of life we used two different measures, the first measure<br /><br>is an illness-specific questionnaire, namely the Stroke-Specific Quality of<br /><br>Life (SS-QOL). The second measure is a generic measure for subjective<br /><br>well-being, the Life Satisfaction 9 (LiSat9), which contains 1 question about<br /><br>general satisfaction about life and eight questions about satisfaction of<br /><br>specific domains. Both measures will be used as outcome measures</p><br>

Each domain will be represented by a domainscore. Besides<br /><br>that an overall score of cognitive functioning will be created for each<br /><br>patient.<br /><br><br /><br>Cognitive complaints:<br /><br>This information is gathered by means of the Cognitive Failure Questionnaire<br /><br>(CFQ). This questionnaire measures in which amount somebody experiences<br /><br>cognitive mistakes (like forgetting things).</p><br>
