暂无简介。

•It is intended that 180 patients will be recruited, one-third (60) of these will be randomly allocated to a control group (no intervention group). Stroke patients with aphasia will be eligible for inclusion in the study. They will have been referred to the Speech & Language Therapists (SALT) in Nottingham with aphasia.

•1. Patients will be excluded form the study if they are blind or deaf as it will not be practical to administer the assessments using standardised methods with these patients. These patients are still important, but a future study would be required to determine how assessments and therapies could be adapted for patients with severe vision and hearing problems.
•2. Patients with dementia documented in their medical notes will be excluded as these patients may not have a reliable insight into their mood and the difficulties they face following their stroke.
•3. Patients who received treatment for depression in the 5 years prior to their stroke will also be excluded as this study is concerned with patients who become depressed after their stroke.
•4. Patients who live more than 40 miles from the recruiting centre will be excluded as it will not be practical for the researchers and therapist to visit these patients.
