Detailed Record Title: Caregivers' Perspectives on the Sensory Environment and Participation in Daily Activities of Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder. / Beth PFEIFFER in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 71/4 (2017)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 71/4 (2017) . - 9p. Titre : Detailed Record Title: Caregivers' Perspectives on the Sensory Environment and Participation in Daily Activities of Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder. Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Beth PFEIFFER, Auteur ; Wendy J. Coster, Auteur ; Gretchen Snethen, Auteur Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : 9p. Langues : Américain (ame) Mots-clés : Activités de la vie quotidienne  Prise de décision  Trouble autistique  Aidants  enfants Résumé : The purpose of this phenomenological study was to obtain caregivers' perspectives on the impact of the sensory environment on participation in daily activities of their young children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Interviews were completed with 34 caregivers of children with ASD ages 3-7 yr. Results strongly suggest that parents and caregivers were pivotal in enabling participation for their children through the implementation of specific strategies and a parental decision-making process. The decision-making process considered amount of effort necessary to support participation and whether participation in a given activity was perceived as essential or nonessential. Strategies enabled participation and reduced the effort required to support the child's participation. Strategies either directly related to the sensory factors of the environment or focused on reducing behavioral responses associated with sensory factors. In this study, we identified important considerations to enhance participation in the home and community environments for children with ASD.

Effectiveness of cheek and jaw support to improve feeding performance of preterm infants / Yea-Shwu HWANG in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 64/6 (novembre-décembre 2010)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 64/6 (novembre-décembre 2010) . - p. 886-894 Titre : Effectiveness of cheek and jaw support to improve feeding performance of preterm infants Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Yea-Shwu HWANG ; et al. ; Wendy J. Coster ; Chyi-Her LIN Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : p. 886-894 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Nutrition  Comportement  Nourrisson Résumé : OBJECTIVE. We examined the effects of cheek and jaw support on the feeding ability of inefficient feeders born prematurely. METHOD. Twenty preterm infants served as their own controls. Each infant received either intervention (feeding with oral support) or control (feeding without oral support) for 2 consecutive feedings per day on 2 consecutive days. RESULTS. Infants displayed a greater intake rate during the intervention feedings, both during the first 5 min (p = .046) and throughout the entire feeding (p = .023). The percentage of leakage during the first 5-min feeding was smaller in the intervention condition than in the control condition (p = .040). No significant differences were found between the two conditions in the sucking, physiological, and alertness variables. CONCLUSION. Findings confirm oral support as a safe and effective strategy to improve the feeding performance of preterm infants who are poor feeders.

Feasibility, acceptability and potential effectiveness of an occupation-focused cognitive self-management program for breast cancer survivors / Robin Newman in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 82 Issue 10 (Octobre 2019)

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 82 Issue 10 (Octobre 2019) . - p. 604-611 Titre : Feasibility, acceptability and potential effectiveness of an occupation-focused cognitive self-management program for breast cancer survivors Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Robin Newman ; Kathleen Doyle Lyons ; Wendy J.

Method Participants (n = 15) reporting cognitive changes following breast cancer treatment were enrolled in an occupation-focused self-management program. Occupational performance challenges, activity level, subjective cognitive function and quality of life were measured at the beginning, end and 3 months after completion of the program. Results Participants reported high satisfaction with the program and high confidence in their problem-solving and goal-setting skills. The 11 participants who completed the post-program assessment showed significant increases in self-perceived performance and satisfaction in daily living, participation, physical and functional wellbeing and perceived cognitive impairment. Conclusion The program was feasible for a vulnerable, socio-economically diverse patient population, acceptable to participants and may have positive effects on occupational performance.

Making the best match / Wendy J. Coster in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 67/2 (mars-avril 2013)

This selection process needs to extend beyond examining basic psychometric properties to consider additional features of instruments that may affect their validity and utility for the study’s purpose. This article discusses these additional factors and their potential impact on outcome measurement. Guidelines are proposed to help clinical researchers and consumers of clinical research literature evaluate the match between the study purpose, population, and instrument.

Psychometric properties of the practical skills test (PST) / Feng-Hang CHANG in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 67/2 (mars-avril 2013)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 67/2 (mars-avril 2013) . - p. 246-253 Titre : Psychometric properties of the practical skills test (PST) Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Feng-Hang CHANG ; Wendy J. Coster ; Christine A. HELFRICH Année de publication : 2013 Article en page(s) : p. 246-253 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Sans domicile fixe  Test  Compétence  Evaluation Résumé : The Practical Skills Test (PST) is a new assessment of individuals’ knowledge of life skills. We evaluated the PST’s reliability, validity, and sensitivity to change among a homeless population. Participants were 123 homeless persons in a longitudinal experimental study who were assessed before and after intervention with the PST, Allen Cognitive Level Screen–2000 (ACLS–2000), and Impact of Event Scale–Revised (IES–R). The PST showed generally good internal consistency, no floor effects, and limited ceiling effects (<20% on each test). Supportive evidence for the PST’s convergent validity was seen in its moderate correlations with the ACLS–2000; we found no significant correlation with the IES–R. Paired t tests indicated that the PST is sensitive to changes in life skills after intervention, but effect sizes were small. The results suggest that the PST has generally good reliability and validity. However, ceiling effects suggest an area for further development.
