Evaluation Test #1 (Key Terms + Assessments)

What is Screening

Evaluation process starts when OTs first receive info abt client/population

What is Bias?

Preference given to certain areas related to the assessments for certain groups of individuals that result in unfair interpretations

Systematic examination of client's occupational history, experiences, and priorities to guide intervention planning

What are three components of MOHO?

Performance Capacity + Habituation + Volition

What is analysis of Occupational Performance?

Process of identifying strengths and limitations in a client's performance of meaningful activity

What is Standardized Assessment?

A tool administered according to consistent procedures

Well known and available!

Norm-referenced OR criterion-referenced!

What is a NON-standardized assessment?

Assessment that are FLEXIBLE and adapt to the client

Client-centered!!!

Equipment = CHEAP

Training = not normally required!

Fulfills unmet need!

LOW COST

IPSATIVE REFERENCED!!!

What is reliability?

the degree to which a measurement is consistent aka CONSISTENTCY

What is validity?

Determines if the tool measures what it is intended to measure aka ACCURACY

What is Test-retest reliability?

the consistency of measures when the same test is administered to the same person twice.

What is Inter-rater reliability?

Comparing the ratings of two or more observers to check for agreement in their measurements.

What is Internal Consistency?

-Reliability of items within tests

-Do items measure aspects of the same thing?

What is the top-down approach in relation to evaluation?

Person occupation; measured by client's performance of life roles (ADLs)

What is the bottom-up approach in relation to evaluation?

The components of the task that interfere with occupational performance; measured by client factors, skills, and capabilities (Manual Muscle Testing (MMT))

What is Face Validity?

a measure of how representative a research project is "at face value" and whether it appears to be a good project

What is Content Validity?

the extent to which a test samples the behavior that is of interest.

What is construct validity?

the degree to which test scores are consistent with theoretical constructs, concepts or expectations.

What is criterion validity?

The process of predicting performance on another test/real-world outcome

What is Professional Reasoning?

The process and reasoning that practitioners continually engage in to plan, direct, perform, and reflect on CLIENT CARE and OCCUPATIONAL PERFORMANCE in all settings

What is the main difference between OT and OTA in evaluation?

OTs are able to determine and initiate the evaluation, intervention, and discharge while OTAs cant!

What is the main difference between OTs and OTAs in intervention?

OTs have OVERALL RESPONSIBILITY while OTAs do NOT

What is the main difference between OTs and OTAs in outcomes?

OTs are responsible for the outcomes while OTAs must be knowledgeable about the OTs listed outcomes!

What are the important aspects of outcome measures?

- Devloped based on evaluation findings

- Outcomes are objective, measureable, and tangible

- Assist in measuring progress towards GOALS of intervention

What is norm-referenced test?

The results of a test to a normative sample

What is criterion-referenced assessment?

The measurement that matches up / compares to an established standard

What is ipsative-referenced?

Evaluate performance from prior outcomes

What are the three main aspects of PIE Testing Bias?

P = Person-related bias (favor/against a person)

I = Item Bias (Degree to which specific element being tested fits the occupation)

E = Environment Bias (The level of which context matches the environemnt)

What are the four categories of non-standardized and standardized testing?

- Observation-based

- Interview-based

- Questionnaires

- Occupational Performance-based
