Objective: In order to understand the impact of early pandemic safety measures on occupation during a specific developmental phase, this study explored the perceptions of emerging adult occupational therapy students in one Midwestern US city. Methods: The researchers used a qualitative case study design to analyze selected course assignments in exploring student (N = 13;n = 1 male) perceptions during early COVID-19 movement restrictions. Findings: Primary themes noted 1) the importance of context or occupational spaces on adaptation, (2) how changes in routines influence being, and (3) the impact of social occupations to belonging and mental health. Conclusion: The occupational disruption caused by COVID-19 safety measures impacted participants' ‘being in place' and adaptation was facilitated by the way habits and routines were performed in confined spaces. Future research should look at the long-term impact of the disruption on emerging adult occupation and resilience, since this phase of life is a key to adult becoming. © 2023 The Journal of Occupational Science Incorporated.","PeriodicalId":51542,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Occupational Science","volume":"36 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41249207","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Building on the definition of aesthetic emotion, we draw on key conceptual sources from anthropology, philosophy, psychology, and the science of neuroaesthetics to explore everyday aesthetics from the perspective of occupation. Objects are critical to an aesthetic event and significant at an occupational, societal, and cultural level. The neurological process of object appraisal is a key source of aesthetic emotion in everyday life. We propose everyday aesthetics as a useful concept for identifying and describing aesthetic experiences that stir humans to act in ways related to occupation and social interaction. Reactions to aesthetic emotions stimulated by the appraisal of objects and events result in acts that potentially support or undermine health and well-being. Everyday aesthetic experiences are a source of motivation present in creative acts and in occupation. Aesthetic emotional processing in everyday life is an aspect of decision-making impacting pleasure, displeasure, agency, and subjective quality of life.","PeriodicalId":51542,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Occupational Science","volume":"30 1","pages":"634 - 646"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43962616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has been studied in fields of psychology and patient experience, but not yet explored within occupational science. We consider the strengths and limitations of considering waiting as an occupation in itself or as a form of occupational disruption. While people wait in almost every aspect of their daily lives, this paper focuses predominantly on waiting in the context of healthcare services. While recognising the wider impact of waiting in other aspects of life, this focus was chosen in response to media coverage of waiting times following the COVID-19 pandemic. In light of this exploration, we call for more occupationally focused research into the phenomenon of waiting, which can lead to fuller assessments of the impact of waiting for patients and development of occupationally focussed interventions to support ‘waiting well’.","PeriodicalId":51542,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Occupational Science","volume":"30 1","pages":"607 - 616"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49486728","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Amongst the many concepts of interest, discussion of a few ideas has endured over the decades. Three of these feature in this issue of the Journal of Occupational Science: occupational balance, people’s experience of participating in occupation, and a temporal perspective of occupation changing over an evolutionary time frame, the human lifespan, and as individuals learn and develop skills and capacities. In her introduction to occupational science, published in the first issue of the first volume of the Journal of Occupational Science: Australia (later renamed as JOS), Yerxa (1993) emphasised the discipline’s roots in occupational therapy and its promise “to provide a substantive knowledge base for the profession” (p. 4). In itemising the dilemmas of occupational therapy practice that this new science would address, Yerxa pointed to the notion of balance (the daily round of work, play, rest, and sleep). She, like occupational therapists before her and the occupational science scholars and researchers who would follow, pinned the idea of balance to Meyer, an American psychiatrist who published in first issue of the Archives of Occupational Therapy in 1922. Wilcock (1993), also publishing in the inaugural issue of Journal of Occupational Science: Australia, extended the discussion. Balance, she maintained, is foundational to health. At a biological level, it is maintained through the mechanisms of homeostasis. Behaviourally, Wilcock maintained, “balanced and stimulating use of physical, mental and social capacities” (p. 22) enhanced health. Accordingly, engaging in a range of occupations would “provide balance between physical, mental and social challenges and relaxation” (p. 23). Wilcock argued, however, that the technologies that have altered lifestyles in post-industrial societies have altered occupational structures to an extent that human life is out of step with our biology and with sustaining the ecology. The apparent complexity of occupational balance is taken up in this issue. Liu, Zemke, Liang, and McLaughlin Gray (2023) offer both a review of the concept and, noting that it has not been taken up outside Western societies, offer an Eastern perspective. Their Model of Occupational Harmony integrates the multiple viewpoints various authors have taken to the concept, ranging from the biological rhythms Wilcock emphasised to occupational balance as the patterns or characteristics of occupation, time use, and need satisfaction. Rather than holding each of these perspectives as distinct, the model suggests how they might be considered as a coherent whole, thus “allowing occupational scientists to embrace the complexity of the orchestration of occupational engagement” (p. 145). Interest in conceptualising occupational balance in this integrated manner is high: This was the 8 most downloaded JOS article in 2022.

This paper explores the ways in which the 2020 COVID-19 lockdown impacted two Norwegian students’ everyday lives. Data were derived from diary entries kept by the students, one with a physical impairment and the other a single parent, over a 5-week period during the first lockdown (May-June 2020). Initial data analysis was done by the students and formed part of their bachelor’s degree theses. Their two supervisors subsequently carried out the secondary analysis presented in this paper, using a narrative design and methodology. The concept of social isolation is used as a lens through which to explore occupational disruption and imbalance experienced by both students during lockdown. Three themes emerged from the students’ personal stories: 1) Life at home: Not being able to maintain a healthy occupational balance, 2) Finding confidence, regaining motivation and purpose, and 3) The meaning of a productive place. The findings highlight how social isolation led to a significant experience of occupational disruption that influenced the ability to maintain a healthy occupational balance for both students, despite their quite different situations. This paper contributes to occupational science literature by showing examples of occupational disruption in everyday life of students during a pandemic. Furthermore, we introduce occupational resignation related to occupational disruption and discuss the meaning of a productive place to maintain occupational balance and regain motivation after occupational disruption.","PeriodicalId":51542,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Occupational Science","volume":"30 1","pages":"184 - 195"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41591425","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
