Applied theories in Occupational Therapy

The third section reviews and applies nine frames of reference most commonly used in occupational therapy practice today. Applied theories in occupational Therapy: A Practical Approach provides a comprehensive overview of theories and frames of reference in occupational therapy. These theories are discussed in a step-by-step format as they are related to occupational therapy.

Practical guidelines are included to assist with evaluation and intervention strategies.

Using the structured outline, students and practitioners can easily compare one frame of reference with another as part of the clinical reasoning response.

This timely text is divided into three sections: foundational theories that underlie occupational therapy practice, occupation-based models, and frames of reference. Topics covered: • evolution and history of occupational therapy theory • proposed taxonomy of occupational therapy models and frames of reference • Understanding systems and contexts • Using different levels of theory • The role of occupational therapy in health and well being Features: • Content analysis of 20 years of Slagle Lectures • U.

S. Unlike other texts, there are no distinctions between specialty areas, as current and developing theories are applied to a continuum of health and wellness for all populations across the lifespan. Cole and roseanna tufano examine the different levels of theory, the definition of each, and the various ways in which these levels guide occupational therapy practice.

The second section reviews five currently used occupation-based models, providing readers with a description of each model according to Mosey’s organization structure.
