Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Occupational performance, which is the score that participants report on the performance and satisfaction of their chosen occupations based on a semi-structured interview based on the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure. Timepoint: Occupational performance will be assessed at the beginning of the study (before the start of the interventions), after the end of the intervention sessions, and in order to assess the follow-up period six weeks after the end of the interventions. Method of measurement: Canadian Occupational Performance Measure.;The actual performance of the selected occupations is determined from the score that participants obtain from a video-based observational tool called the Performance Quality Rating Scale (operational definition), which is intended to measure the actual performance of the selected activities of the subjects. Timepoint: The actual performance of the selected occupations will be assessed at the beginning of the study (before the start of the interventions), after the end of the intervention sessions, and in order to assess the follow-up period six weeks after the end of the interventions. Method of measurement: Performance Quality Rating Scale (Operational Definition).;Goal attainment is a method of assessing progress toward individual goals that is used in occupational therapy, physiotherapy, and speech therapy across a wide range of clinical populations, including children, adults, and the elderly. Timepoint: Goal attainment will be assessed at the beginning of the study (before the start of the interventions), after the end of the intervention sessions, and in order to assess the follow-up period six weeks after the end of the interventions. Method of measurement: Goal Attainment Scaling. | — |
