Abstract
As medical technology advances, survival rates from stroke are steadily improving. There are over 1 million stroke survivors in this country (National Center for Health Statistics, 1977). Combining this statistic with the rapid “graying” of the American society, the rehabilitation community has begun to focus attention on providing a broader range of interventions for stroke survivors. Despite the fact that the majority of stroke patients are depressed (Gordon, Hibbard, Egelko, et al., 1990; Robinson et al., 1983; Ruckdeschel-Hibbard, Gordon, & Diller, 1986), traditional rehabilitation efforts have focused largely on the physical and language losses following stroke. Thus, poststroke depression (PSD) presents as a major impediment to maximizing the quality of life for stroke survivors.
