DESIGN: Cross-sectional survey. PARTICIPANTS: Survey respondents older than age 18 yr from the Study of Transition, Outcomes & Gender cohort (N = 696; n = 350 assigned male at birth, n = 346 assigned female at birth [AFAB])...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Mary Vining Radomski, Mattie Anheluk, Ginger Carroll, Joette Zola
Purpose in life is increasingly understood to be important to health and well-being. Despite occupational therapy's long history of using occupations to advance health and the linkage between a subclass of occupations and purpose in life, the term is nearly absent from the American Occupational Therapy Association's documents and the profession's empirical literature. We propose that the profession explicitly name purpose in life as among our intervention outcomes and address disruptions of purpose in life in practice...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Andi Brown, Devin C Barth, Amanda R Leslie
IMPORTANCE: Identity disruption and occupational identity disruption are common after traumatic brain injury (TBI), but the relationship between these two phenomena is underexplored. Occupational therapy practitioners should be knowledgeable about identity challenges after TBI and ways to reconstruct a sense of self. OBJECTIVE: To sensitize readers to the experience of identity disruption and occupational identity disruption and describe how those two experiences are interrelated and transactional in nature...

IMPORTANCE: Children with unilateral cerebral palsy (UCP) have poor strength and movement control on one side of their body, leading to impaired bimanual coordination skills. OBJECTIVE: To compare duration and intensity of all-day habitual movement of the dominant and nondominant upper extremities (UEs) in typically developing (TD) children and children with UCP. DESIGN: Two-group observational study. SETTING: Children's naturalistic settings...

IMPORTANCE: Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a neuromodulation technique that can improve paresis in individuals with spinal cord injury. SCS is emerging as a technique that can address upper and lower limb hemiparesis. Little is understood about its effectiveness with the poststroke population. OBJECTIVE: To summarize the evidence for SCS after stroke and any changes in upper extremity and lower extremity motor function. DATA SOURCES: PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and CINAHL...

IMPORTANCE: Impaired self-awareness (SA) of deficits after an acquired brain injury (ABI) severely affects patients' independence in activities of daily living (ADLs). However, any assessment tool permits an exhaustive evaluation of SA in the context of ADLs. OBJECTIVE: To study the validity of the Breakfast and Dressing Conflict Task (BD Conflict Task) to assess online SA (awareness of performance in the context of a given task) in patients with ABI; to study its interactions with offline SA (general awareness); and to test the validity of a simplified measure of performance monitoring, the ADL Conflict-Monitoring Index...

IMPORTANCE: Although the cardiopulmonary benefits of aerobic exercise poststroke are well-established, typical stroke rehabilitation does not elicit an aerobic response. OBJECTIVE: To characterize heart rate response during upper extremity repetitive task practice (RTP) and determine factors that predict a higher aerobic intensity during RTP. DESIGN: Secondary analysis of a subset of data from a randomized clinical trial. SETTING: Research laboratory in a large academic medical center...

Antria Kiriakou, Pavlina Psychouli
BACKGROUND: Stroke is the third leading cause of permanent disability worldwide. It is associated with difficulties in occupational performance, an area targeted by the Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance (CO-OP). OBJECTIVE: To investigate the evidence available for the effectiveness of the CO-OP in addressing adults' performance of activities of daily living. DATA SOURCES: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or pilot RCTs of the CO-OP written in English and published through December 2021 were retrieved from PubMed, SCOPUS, ScienceDirect, OTseeker, and EBSCO...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Regina F Doherty, Olivia Rotelle
Health professionals across all care delivery settings, including occupational therapy practitioners, are experiencing high levels of moral distress. The mental, emotional, and physical consequences of unresolved moral distress are resulting in burnout, decreased quality of care, and poor patient outcomes. Moral resilience is a teachable and learnable skill that can nullify some of the adverse consequences of moral distress. To ensure quality care outcomes and improve the well-being of individual occupational therapy practitioners and the profession, it is essential that occupational therapy practitioners be provided with the education, training, resources, and strategies needed to address moral distress, foster moral resilience, and cultivate the skills necessary to cope with ethical tensions...

Emily J Grieb, Arlene A Schmid, Nathaniel R Riggs, Jaclyn A Stephens
IMPORTANCE: Acquired brain injury (ABI) may result in deficits in executive function (EF), which affects engagement in occupations. OBJECTIVE: To explore the impact of group yoga on EF in people with ABI. DESIGN: Single-arm pilot study with preyoga assessments and postyoga assessments (after 8 wk of yoga). SETTING: Yoga classes and assessments were completed within university buildings on a college campus. PARTICIPANTS: Twelve participants with chronic ABI (>6 mo post-ABI) were recruited through convenience and purposive strategies from the local community...

IMPORTANCE: Complex telehealth interventions can facilitate remote occupational therapy services and improve access for people living with chronic neurological conditions. Understanding the factors that influence the uptake of these technologies is important.

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Cheng-Yu Lee, Tsu-Hsin Howe
IMPORTANCE: Interventions for improving upper extremity (UE) recovery have become a priority in stroke rehabilitation because UE disability can undermine a person's capacity to perform daily activities after stroke. A better understanding of the use of activity-based task-oriented training (TOT) will inform the development of more effective UE interventions in stroke rehabilitation. OBJECTIVE: To examine the effectiveness of activity-based TOT in improving the UE recovery of adults with stroke...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Holden Gasque, Corey Morrow, Emily Grattan, Michelle Woodbury
IMPORTANCE: Spatial neglect (SN)-failure to respond to stimuli on the side of the body contralateral to a poststroke lesion-is one of the most disabling impairments for stroke survivors, and 80% of stroke survivors may have undetected SN. Occupational therapists' evaluations should include determining the impact of poststroke SN. OBJECTIVE: To investigate occupational therapists' confidence, knowledge, current practices, barriers, and facilitators when assessing for SN in adult stroke survivors...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Sanghun Nam, Timothy A Reistetter, Ickpyo Hong
IMPORTANCE: Although cross-sectional studies have reported the relationships among performance of activities of daily living (ADLs), income satisfaction, and health satisfaction, longitudinal associations in stroke survivors remain unclear. OBJECTIVE: To examine the effects of ADL function and income satisfaction on health satisfaction over time in stroke survivors. DESIGN: Retrospective longitudinal study designs with latent growth curve models (LGMs) to control for time-varying and time-invariant covariates...
