Brief Summary:
This study will evaluate the use of the personal computer PC in occupational therapy The results of the study will help occupational therapists develop improved treatment activities using PCs
Patients enrolled in various NIH clinical trials who are referred for occupational therapy may be eligible for this study Each patient will have at least four computer sessions within 6 months They will use the PC to achieve goals they set for themselves-for example to build work skills improve concentration or simply have fun At the end of each session the occupational therapist will interview the patient asking for example about the goal of the session and what may have occurred during the session to make it more helpful or less helpful The interviews will be tape recorded and used to help determine how computers may be used most therapeutically

Detailed Description:
Occupational therapy approaches rehabilitation through the concept of occupation the component of human behavior regarding ones engagement in self-initiated self-directed adaptive purposeful culturally relevant organized activity Rehabilitation through occupation is a process stemming from interactions among the three domains a performance areas b performance components and c performance contexts At the core of the occupational therapy is a sub-process created by patients and therapists through their actions and reactions to treatment It is a significant sub-process because it sets into motion the use of occupation as therapy It is believed that the appropriate therapeutic use of occupation affects performance or how one functions
There is a need to develop ways to articulate and measure complex therapeutic interventions themselves This is especially true of those treatment approaches which integrate human relationships collaborative problem-solving and the targeted doing of unique personally relevant occupations Occupational therapy is a health profession characterized by such interventions The capacity to delineate key process variables may lead to credible examination of process-outcome relationships Ultimately results from the proposed study may provide information needed to further establish patient outcomes from occupational therapy interventions
