Exploring the alignment between occupational therapy using Ayres Sensory Integration® with children and occupation‐centred practice: An observational study

Some participants' therapeutic approach was more closely aligned with occupation-centred practice, evidencing the potential for occupation-centred implementation of ASI. Nevertheless, findings underscore the need to strengthen the occupational focus. Therapists may benefit from occupation-centred practice training and using the checklist presented in this study to self-monitor alignment with the profession's paradigm.

Abstract

Some participants' therapeutic approach was more closely aligned with occupation-centred practice, evidencing the potential for occupation-centred implementation of ASI. Nevertheless, findings underscore the need to strengthen the occupational focus. Therapists may benefit from occupation-centred practice training and using the checklist presented in this study to self-monitor alignment with the profession's paradigm.
