The Research on Education Committee of the Association of Canadian Occupational Therapy University Programs (ACOTUP) hosts an educational research community of practice (CoP). Occupational therapy educators across Canada meet through this CoP to network and advance research on education. While the literature has noted benefits of participating in a CoP for the professional development of occupational therapists, there is a paucity of studies focusing on educational researchers' participation in a CoP. Purpose. This study aimed to examine CoP members' perceptions of the value of, and barriers to, participation in an educational research CoP. Method. A mixed methods design, consisting of an online survey followed by focus groups, was employed to gain insight into participants' perspectives and experiences of involvement in the CoP. Data were analyzed inductively and deductively using collaborative qualitative analysis. Findings. Members identified benefits of participation arising from networking and being a part of a supportive community. They described gaining new insights, social relationships, and inspiration to continue their pedagogical research. The data also highlighted limitations to participation and suggested ways to enhance meaningful engagement within a CoP. Conclusion. The CoP provides value to educators and researchers in supporting their pedagogical practices and professional careers. This knowledge could be leveraged to support its members and other CoPs.","PeriodicalId":49097,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy-Revue Canadienne D Ergotherapie","volume":" ","pages":"84174251377843"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145201904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Excessive screen time is a real public health issue among young people given its negative consequences. It is important to rely on proven interventions to better support young people in adopting a healthy and meaningful lifestyle. The Lifestyle Redesign occupational therapy approach could help achieve this, but it has not yet been documented or explored with this population. Purpose. To demonstrate the relevance of adapting and testing the Lifestyle Redesign approach with young people who spend excessive amounts of time in front of screens, in the hopes of inspiring research or innovation projects in youth practice settings. Key issues. Many young people spend too much time using screens during their leisure activities. During adolescence, young people tend to increase their screen time during leisure activities, while also isolating themselves socially, struggling with boredom, and replacing physical activity with sedentary activities. Therefore, effective interventions would help to improve the life balance of these young people. Implications. A project to adapt and test the Lifestyle Redesign approach for young people would address this need. This project could include young people aged 10 to 12, their parents, and key partners. Drawing on other evidence-based practices related to commitment and screen time reduction would be beneficial to the intervention, which should also target, among other things, developing young people's repertoire of interests.","PeriodicalId":49097,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy-Revue Canadienne D Ergotherapie","volume":" ","pages":"84174251365684"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145016433","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fieldwork is essential in postsecondary health professions programs and can present challenges for disabled students. Fieldwork coordinators, responsible for student placements, play a pivotal role in supporting disabled students. However, limited research exists regarding the experiences of these coordinators in accommodating students with disabilities. Purpose. This mixed methods study aims to understand the perspectives of academic fieldwork coordinators in occupational therapy programs, focusing on their practices to support disabled students and promote a sense of inclusion. Method. Using a mixed methods approach, fifteen academic fieldwork coordinators completed a quantitative survey followed by in-depth semistructured interviews with five coordinators. Results. Participants' experiences presented two main themes. First, academic fieldwork coordinators constantly navigated tensions with institutional norms regarding fieldwork. Second, academic fieldwork coordinators manage fieldwork accommodations within ever-changing human dynamics and social norms, including students' decisions about disclosure. Despite these gaps, the participants emphasized opportunities for enhancing and refining occupational therapy programs by addressing challenges to improve inclusivity for students with disabilities. Conclusion. Addressing these accessibility issues can contribute to the overall improvement of educational practices, fostering a more inclusive learning environment. Examination of the institution's infrastructure, collaboration with disabled individuals, and greater personnel training are key in promoting a more inclusive and supportive environment for both academic fieldwork coordinators and disabled students.","PeriodicalId":49097,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy-Revue Canadienne D Ergotherapie","volume":" ","pages":"229-240"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12326027/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143992262","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The COVID-19 pandemic led to abrupt occupational disruption for all people. However, some populations, like older adults, were disproportionately impacted particularly in the earlier waves. Purpose. The purpose of this study was to explore and understand how the occupational participation of community-dwelling older adults was experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic, using the Canadian Model of Occupational Participation (CanMOP) to contextualize findings. Method. Sixty-seven older adults participated in semi-structured interviews from September 2020 to May 2021, 37 of which also participated in a follow-up interview one-year later. Findings. Using reflexive thematic analysis, four themes were generated: (1) experiences of loss are complex and layered for older adults, (2) technology as a medium for occupational participation, (3) risk perception influences return to occupation, and (4) age-related challenges for older adults resuming volunteer work. Conclusion. Increasing frequency and severity of influenza pandemics and other disasters are a global concern, and OTs can use their skillsets to foster participation and expand occupational possibilities for older adults. The CanMOP was a helpful tool to understand the nuances underlying the participation of older adults in this context.","PeriodicalId":49097,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy-Revue Canadienne D Ergotherapie","volume":" ","pages":"161-172"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12326026/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142373322","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A cross-sectional online descriptive survey was sent to key representatives from administration, curriculum, and fieldwork at all 14 accredited occupational therapy university programs in Canada. Findings. Overall, many pandemic-restricted curricula delivery and assessment changes shifted back toward pre-pandemic methods. Changes that were maintained were congruent with universal design or perceived limited adverse impact on learning. Both in-person and virtual learning were perceived as important for changing practice needs. Fieldwork placement recruitment remained a challenge, with some programs increasing the use of simulation.

Technology-enabled upper limb (UL) rehabilitation improves therapy intensity and impairment outcomes, however clinical usage remains low and evidence for functional outcomes is limited. While benefits of single-mode technologies have been demonstrated, a combination of technology modes or \"hybrid\" approach is an emerging option with shoulder to fingertip capability. Investigation of this approach within a hospital setting is warranted to inform occupational therapy practice with neurological patients. Purpose. This study examines feasibility of hybrid technology-enabled UL rehabilitation for in-patients with neurological impairments. Method and Analyses. A Phase II feasibility randomized controlled trial (RCT) will compare usual care versus hybrid technology intervention using three technology modes (robotics, virtual reality, sensor-based therapy) plus usual care. Pre-post outcomes for UL impairment, activity, participation and self-reported function will be analyzed using 2 × 2 repeated measures ANOVA. Effect sizes will inform a power analysis for a full-scale RCT. Field observations and participant surveys will capture feasibility factors. It is anticipated hybrid technology for UL neurorehabilitation will be feasible in a hospital setting and show preliminary effectiveness for improving UL use in daily activities.
