Aim: The aim with this literature review was to describe how task-specific training effects the ADL-capacity for people affected by stroke within occupational therapy intervention. Method: The data collection was conducted in two databases in medicine and health with a focus on occupational therapy and rehabilitation. The literature search was carried out in the databases CINAHL with full text and Pubmed. The inclusion criteria and quality review resulted in twelve quantitative studies. The studies were analyzed through the three steps regarding study analysis described in Friberg (2017). The analysis ended in five categories which report the result. Results: The results are reported in the categories; The definition and the nature of task-specific training, The context of the intervention and the choice of task or activity, Task-specific training in combination with another measure, The result of the task-specific training's impact on functional ability, The result of the task-specific training's impact on performance capacity. The results showed that task-specific training was defined, performed and combined in different ways in the studies. The task-specific training improved the function of the upper extremity and increased mobility and coordination. The task-specific training improved the participants performance capacity where the occupational performance and self-perceived performance capacity improved. Conclusion: The results showed that task-specific training had a positive impact on ADL-capacity since functional and performance capacity had improved for people affected by stroke. The authors believe that more research is needed on how task-specific training should be carried out as there is currently no constant description of the method. More studies should be conducted where participants exersice in activities.
