abstract = {Stroke is a common neurological condition that often results in impairments in balance, mobility, and functional independence, significantly affecting the quality of life of affected individuals. Balance dysfunction increases the risk of falls and limits participation in activities of daily living among stroke patients. The aim of the study is to find out the effectiveness of repetitive task training on balance among stroke patients. This study adopts a quasi-experimental research design, and convenient sampling was employed. A population of 30 subjects aged between 40 to 60 years who were diagnosed with stroke were selected for the study. The subjects were divided into two groups: Group A (experimental group) and Group B (control group). The Berg Balance Scale was administered to all subjects to evaluate the pre-test balance levels in both groups. Group A received repetitive task training along with conventional occupational therapy for 24 sessions (3 sessions per week) with a duration of 60 minutes per session for 2 months. Participants in the control group received only conventional occupational therapy for the same duration. Post-test assessment was carried out using the Berg Balance Scale. The collected data were statistically calculated and analysed, and the results showed a significant improvement in balance among the experimental group when compared to the control group.},
