Occupational therapy's domain of concern : reconsidered
KATZ N
AM J OCCUP THER , 1985, vol. 39, n° 8, p. 518-524 Doc n°: 21821 Localisation : Documentation IRR Descripteurs : KB - ERGOTHERAPIE This paper focuses on the domain of concern part of a professional model presented by Mosey in her book occupational therapy : configuration of a profession (Raven, 1981). Based on additional review of the literature, I suggest two principal alterations. 1. A change in core versus parameter. "Human occupation" replaces "occupational performance" and is presented as the core of the domain of concern because this is the focus of occupational therapy practice ; the "performance components" defined here as "competence components" actually serve as a parameter of practice. 2. A reconceptualization of two parameters : "time" and "cultural environment". Time should be considered a separate parameter, including categories of time practice, balance of activities over time, and time perspective. Cultural environment is perceived as a parameter that is composed of four categories : the symbolic, social physical and natural environments. This paper emphasizes the interrelatedness of all parts of the model and points out the qualitative differences between the parameters. Langue : ANGLAIS Identifiant basis : 1985002709 |
