Defining the key elements of the Affolter Model® in a multiprofessional Delphi study: a first step toward evidence-based Tactual Interaction Therapy

Thirty-six core statements describing the Affolter Model® achieved consensus. By mapping the core domains of the Affolter Model®, this study provides a basis for teaching and developing the Affolter Model® in theory and practice and for further research projects to investigate its effectiveness in persons with perceptive and cognitive problems, limiting participation in everyday life.
