This project explores the effects of specialized computer-based cognitive rehabilitation (CBCR) targeting executive functions in three groups of patients: Stroke, Cardiac Arrest and Parkinson's Disease. The effect of specialized CBCR is compared to an active control condition completing general mentally stimulating sham-training. A total of 300 patients (100 from each patient-group) is expected to be enrolled. All patients will complete a neuropsychological testbattery tageting executive functions at inclusion and after the training period. Furthermore, all patients will answer questionnaires concerning quality of life and ADL-measures before and after the intervention. All patients will train with the intervention-programme or the sham-programme for a period of 8 weeks, 5 times a week for 60 minutes.
