Authored by three preeminent leaders in the field of occupational ther apy, Measuring Occupational Performance provides a comprehensive appro ach to assessing occupational performance. This text begins with a bac kground of measurement concepts and issues and explores the central th eoretical concept of occupational therapy, occupation, and occupationa l performance outcomes facilitated by person-environment-occupation. T he key actions that occupational therapists must implement when conduc ting assessments, reporting findings, and interpreting measurement inf ormation for intervention planning are outlined. These actions enable occupational therapists to take advantage of wisdom from other discipl ines, create an organized approach, and provide a framework for best p ractice by taking an occupation-centered, evidence-based approach to m easurement.
