Occupational therapists working with Indigenous Peoples across Canada were invited to participate in online surveys and virtual storytelling groups. Data was analyzed with descriptive statistics and thematic analysis. Member checking and collaboration with Indigenous project members consolidated final themes. Findings. Forty-three participants completed surveys and 16 participated in storytelling groups, with three distinct themes emerging: importance of building relationships, the complex nature of obtaining consent, and how systemic barriers negatively affect occupational therapists' capacity to provide culturally safer assessments. Findings are presented in a composite conversation between an occupational therapist and an Indigenous Knowledge Keeper. Conclusion. Despite systemic pressures towards efficiency and standardized approaches, occupational therapists are attempting efforts towards culturally safer assessments by advocating for occupation-based, culturally relevant, and flexible assessment processes that respect the autonomy of Indigenous service recipients. Future research could explore the current state of curricula related to assessment practices with Indigenous Peoples in Canadian entry to practice occupational therapy programs and perspectives from Indigenous occupational therapists and service recipients.","PeriodicalId":49097,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy-Revue Canadienne D Ergotherapie","volume":" ","pages":"311-322"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12634882/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144121247","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}

Cultural approaches are used to acknowledge the diversity and the social positioning individuals bring into the therapeutic relationship. Purpose. This scoping review describes the utilization of cultural approaches to build and sustain therapeutic relationships between immigrant families of disabled children and occupational therapists. Method. This scoping review was based on the methodological framework developed by Arksey and O'Malley. Six databases were searched, and 24 articles published between 2010 and 2025 were included. Results. Cultural competence, cultural sensitivity and cultural humility were the cultural approaches mentioned in 15 studies, with nine not mentioning a specific cultural approach to facilitate the therapeutic relationship. All the studies outlined strategies to facilitate the relationship. Various culturally appropriate communicative and collaborative strategies were used to (i) establish rapport and trust (ii) align goals and intervention and (iii) facilitate advocacy and participation. These strategies were independently described and were not specific to any approach. Conclusion. Facilitating the therapeutic relationship with immigrant families of disabled children does not align specifically with any of the cultural approaches within occupational therapy. This reinforces the need to focus not on the cultural approaches, but on refining the strategies required to facilitate the therapeutic relationship.","PeriodicalId":49097,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy-Revue Canadienne D Ergotherapie","volume":" ","pages":"350-365"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12634896/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144785772","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}

Fine motor skills such as folding, writing, and cutting are daily activities of children, yet reliable, valid tools to qualitatively assess these skills remain limited. Purpose. To develop the Hands-On! observation tool and evaluate its reliability and validity in assessing fine motor skills in 5- to 10-year-old children. Method. Hands-On! was created using literature review and expert feedback to determine intratask components for folding, writing, and cutting. The sample included 178 typically developing children (Mage 8.06 ± 1.58 years, 47.8% boys). Inter- and intraobserver reliability were measured, alongside concurrent (duration and errors DCDDaily) and construct validity (age, sex) for each task. Findings. Moderate to very strong interobserver (folding 84.5%-84.9%, writing 81.8%-86.0%, cutting 75.4%-83.8%) and intraobserver reliability (folding 92.8%, writing 91.7%, cutting 93.7%) were found. Concurrent validity was supported by moderate to strong correlations between qualitative scores for folding (ρduration = 0.624, ρfolds = -0.441) and cutting (ρduration = 0.335, ρerrors = 0.377) with DCDDaily metrics, though no significant correlation was found for writing. Construct validity was supported for folding and cutting, with age and sex explaining 22.1% and 14.1% of the variance. Conclusion. Hands-On! is a reliable and valid qualitative observation tool for assessing fine motor skills in children, enhancing assessment practices, and informing effective interventions.","PeriodicalId":49097,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy-Revue Canadienne D Ergotherapie","volume":" ","pages":"84174251397726"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145606982","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}

National and provincial professional associations and regulatory bodies for occupational therapists (OTs) in Canada emphasize culture, equity, and justice as essential competencies. This study investigates the diversity within the occupational therapy profession and explores OTs' perspectives on providing culturally responsive care to members of equity-deserving groups, with a particular focus on cultural competence and agility. Method. OTs were administered a cross-sectional mixed-methods survey that included demographics, the Cultural Competence Assessment Instrument (Two subscales: Awareness and Sensitivity and Competence Behaviour), and an open-ended question examining their perceived cultural competence. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and qualitative themes were determined through content analysis. Findings. A total of 240 OTs participated in this survey, with an average age of 45.3 (22.5), identifying primarily as females/women (90.7%). Less than half of respondents (41%) identified their race; of those who did, they were primarily of Southeast Asian descent (21.3%). OTs had lower scores for Cultural Awareness and Sensitivity (3.17/7 [3.11, 3.23]) and for Cultural Competence Behavior (3.22/7 [3.08, 3.37]). While highlighting the healthcare system distrust and barriers to culturally responsive care, most felt confident addressing them. OTs reported that greater awareness and inclusivity at individual and systemic levels are needed. Conclusion. Our sample of OTs suggests little diversity related to gender, race, and ethnicity.

School-based occupational therapy (SBOT) is shifting from pull-out interventions for students with special needs to tiered models focused on inclusion and participation. There are several noted benefits of tiered models. However, research has suggested that challenges exist in the transition to tiered models that are consistent with ethical tensions. It is unclear how occupational therapists are navigating the transition to tiered models, including addressing ethical tensions. Purpose. The purpose was to advance knowledge and understanding regarding ethical tensions experienced by school-based occupational therapists in transitioning to tiered models of SBOT. The research question was: What are the perceived ethical tensions experienced by occupational therapists in transitioning to tiered models of service delivery in SBOT? Method. Interpretive description was employed. Interviews were conducted with 11 self-nominated occupational therapists. Data analysis consisted of preparation, organization, and interpretation followed by a member checking focus group. Findings. Occupational therapists experienced ethical tensions around five inter-related ethical principles-fidelity, veracity, autonomy, confidentiality, and distributive justice. Conclusion. The transition to tiered SBOT exacerbated or created ethical tensions. Engaging established implementation guidelines can provide a structured framework to inform large-scale service delivery changes, lessening ethical tensions while eliciting desired outcomes.","PeriodicalId":49097,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy-Revue Canadienne D Ergotherapie","volume":" ","pages":"84174251395574"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145558121","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}

Cultural humility is increasingly embraced as a theoretical lens that occupational therapists, educators, and researchers can use to promote justice and inclusion in diverse contexts. Cultural humility differs from cultural competence in its recognition of power and bias and its invitation to embrace advocacy and lifelong learning. Key Issues. Occupational therapy scholarship on cultural humility neither confronts the profound challenges of putting cultural humility into practice nor articulates strategies to integrate cultural humility into daily life and work. These challenges, including perceived objectivity, difficulty identifying power structures, and emotional responses to difference, are particularly salient when belief systems are in clear opposition. In such situations enacting cultural humility requires intellectual, emotional, relational, and community building strategy and skill. Implications. To support development of such skills, conceptual practices are outlined here with a focus on uprooting biases, building self-compassion, identifying multiple, co-occurring dimensions of power, and supporting development of collaborative advocacy vision and strategy. This work offers both theoretical and practical knowledge to advance cultural humility praxis in occupational therapy.","PeriodicalId":49097,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy-Revue Canadienne D Ergotherapie","volume":" ","pages":"84174251395545"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13432360/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145551702","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}

This study examines how occupational therapists integrate reconciliation into their practice and identifies influencing factors. Method. Reflexive thematic analysis was applied to data from semi-structured interviews with 11 occupational therapists. Discussions explored reconciliation efforts and related challenges. Findings. Occupational therapists foster reconciliation through building relationships with Indigenous communities and engaging in lifelong learning, such as accessing Indigenous knowledge and resources. Key barriers include gaps in foundational education and difficulties translating rhetoric into meaningful action. Participants stressed the need to deconstruct Western paradigms and adopt culturally responsive, non-Western approaches. Relationality, community engagement, and continuous learning emerged as central to reconciliation and culturally safer care. Conclusion. This study contributes to the national dialogue on truth and reconciliation by offering a foundation to understand truth and reconciliation in the context of occupational therapy.

Method. Peer-reviewed articles citing one or both of the two seminal publications regarding occupational possibilities were included. A descriptive analysis of 93 articles was conducted, along with a qualitative analysis of 43 articles that extensively integrated the concept. Findings. The concept of occupational possibilities has been increasingly used in scholarship since 2016 in ways that have deepened understanding of the discursive, systemic and structural forces perpetuating occupational inequities, and countered individualistic conceptualizations of occupational \"choice.\" This scholarship has identified key starting points for promoting equity through transforming occupational possibilities.
