Phronesis: Recognising a neglected dimension of knowledge within occupational therapy research
CONCLUSION: There is a need for a greater recognition of phronesis as a dimension of knowledge within all types of research, and within the discipline. By not recognising phronesis as a legitimate form of knowledge, the discipline perpetuates a superiority of knowledge from episteme that dominates our ways of learning about the world around us and where the type of knowledge gleaned from phronesis is consequently marginalised.PMID:38630858 | DOI:10.1080/11038128.2024.2341782 (Source: Scandinavian Journal of Occupational Therapy)

Occupational experiences and their importance for young peoples' mental health
CONCLUSIONS: Young peoples' occupational experiences shape their mental health in several ways: they serve as coping strategies, as a means to experience joy and accomplishment, and as a source of routines and opportunities for relaxation. We suggest that health-promoting initiatives for young people would strongly benefit from the inclusion of an occupational perspective.PMID:38626736 | DOI:10.1080/11038128.2024.2341779 (Source: Scandinavian Journal of Occupational Therapy)

A Rasch analysis of the Danish version of the occupational balance questionnaire (OBQ11)
CONCLUSION: The present version of the OBQ11-DK shows the need for further development and testing and is not tested for test/retest or in clinical samples. The results and small number of items may after modifications and further studies make it feasible to implement OBQ11-DK into settings where the measuring of occupational balance is needed.PMID:38498981 | DOI:10.1080/11038128.2024.2327356 (Source: Scandinavian Journal of Occupational Therapy)
