This systematic review evaluates the evidence for the effectiveness of
interventions within the scope of occupational therapy to improve and maintain
performance and participation for people with serious mental illness. Areas
included in this review are activities of daily living, instrumental activities
of daily living, leisure, social participation, and rest and sleep. METHOD: Databases searched included MEDLINE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, OTseeker, and the Cochrane
Database of Systematic Reviews. Reviewers read and assessed citations, abstracts,
and full-text articles for inclusion and analysis. RESULTS: Sixty-one articles
were selected for inclusion. The review yielded strong evidence for
psychoeducation and occupation- and cognitive-based interventions, moderate
evidence for skills-based interventions, and limited evidence for
technology-supported interventions. CONCLUSION: Results of this review support
use of evidence-based practice within the scope of occupational therapy,
inclusion of occupational therapy practitioners as mental health service
providers, and continued research.
