Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol.81 Issue 9 (Septembre 2018) . - p. 514-524 Titre : Adults with intellectual disabilities: Case studies using everyday technology to support daily living skills Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Kathleen Golisz ; Amiya Waldman-Levi ; Richard P. Swierat ; Joan P. Toglia Année de publication : 2018 Article en page(s) : p. 514-524 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Intellectual developmental disorders  technology  activities of daily living Résumé : Introduction Adults with intellectual developmental disorders may have difficulties undertaking activities of daily living. This study aimed to identify changes in independence in activities of daily living following learning support using individualized everyday technologies. Method A double-baseline case study design explored the use of everyday technology applications and devices to support functional performance of three men aged 32, 33, and 55 years, with mild to moderate intellectual disabilities. Performance of selected tasks was video-recorded and analysed on four occasions for each participant. Baselines were recorded twice before intervention to ensure the participant’s performance of the selected task was consistent. The intervention video was recorded at the midpoint of the participant’s engagement in the study. Post-intervention video was recorded approximately 1 month after the intervention ended. Results All three participants’ functional performance of an activity of daily living task improved in accuracy and efficiency as cues from support workers were gradually faded. After the learning support ceased, technology continued to provide environmental support of participants’ ongoing independence and efficient performance of the activity. Conclusion Everyday technology applications and devices can be utilized together with a guided and structured client-centred approach and task-specific training with individuals with disability and learning difficulties.

Occupational Therapy and Driving and Community Mobility for Older Adults / Kathleen Golisz in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 68/6 (novembre/décembre 2014)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 68/6 (novembre/décembre 2014) . - p. 654-656 Titre : Occupational Therapy and Driving and Community Mobility for Older Adults Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Kathleen Golisz Année de publication : 2014 Article en page(s) : p. 654-656 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Ergothérapie  Personne âgée  Conduite automobile Résumé : This special issue of the American Journal of Occupational Therapy includes summaries from a systematic evidence-based literature review of occupational therapy and driving and community mobility for older adults. Since the previous review on this topic in 2008, the cohort of 78 million baby boomers began turning 65 in January 2011. As a group, this cohort is more likely to have longer life expectancy, stay in the workforce longer, and age in place in the community. Is the occupational therapy profession ready for the potential demand for driving rehabilitation services from this generation of older drivers who grew up with the automobile and are dependent on it for access to and participation in their communities?

Occupational Therapy Interventions to Improve Driving Performance in Older Adults / Kathleen Golisz in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 68/6 (novembre/décembre 2014)

After a comprehensive search of the research literature, 29 studies were reviewed and synthesized into five themes: (1) educational interventions including family education, (2) cognitive–perceptual training, (3) interventions addressing physical fitness, (4) simulator training, and (5) behind-the-wheel training. Outcome measures used in the studies included changes in knowledge through speed of processing, physical and cognitive skills predicted to reduce crash risk, simulated driving, and real-world driving. The studies demonstrated low to moderate positive effects for interventions used by occupational therapy practitioners to improve older driver performance.
