Errorless Learning for Everyday Functioning in Adults With Brain Injury: A Scoping Review.

Background: Errorless learning is an intervention technique used in acquired brain injury (ABI) rehabilitation. To support the use of this intervention within occupational therapy practice, it is important to know how errorless learning has been applied to (re)train daily functions.

Objectives: To describe the empirical literature on errorless learning applied to everyday functioning in adults with ABI.

Everyday functioning among older adults with subjective cognitive decline: a scoping review.

Purpose: Older adults with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) experience cognitive difficulties without objectively measurable cognitive impairments but which may affect their everyday functioning. However, everyday functioning in this population has not yet been characterized. We sought to describe the empirical literature on the everyday functioning of community-dwelling older adults with SCD, their recruitment methods, and the measurements used.

Recommended characteristics and processes for writing lay summaries of healthcare evidence: a co-created scoping review and consultation exercise.

Background: Lay summaries (LSs) of scientific evidence are critical to sharing research with non-specialist audiences. This scoping review with a consultation exercise aimed to (1) Describe features of the available LS resources; (2) Summarize recommended LS characteristics and content; (3) Outline recommended processes to write a LS; and (4) Obtain stakeholder perspectives on LS characteristics and writing processes.

Methods: This project was a patient and public partner (PPP)-initiated topic co-led by a PPP and a researcher.

Strategy-training post-stroke via tele-rehabilitation: a pilot randomized controlled trial.

Purpose: Long-term limitations in social participation are common after stroke. Whether these can be attenuated through a tele-rehabilitation approach is unknown. We were particularly interested in examining transfer of learning effects which could result in broader improvements in social participation.

Supporting patient and public partners in writing lay summaries of scientific evidence in healthcare: a scoping review protocol.

Introduction: Despite growing interest among patient and public partners to engage in writing lay summaries, evidence is scarce regarding the availability of resources to support them. This protocol describes the process of conducting a scoping review to: (1) summarise the source, criteria and characteristics, content, format, intended target audience, patient and public involvement in preparing guidance and development processes in the available guidance for writing lay summaries; (2) contextualise the available guidance to the needs/preferences of patient and public partners and (3) create a patient and public partner-informed output to support their engagement in writing lay summaries.

Method And Analysis: A scoping review with an integrated knowledge translation approach will be used to ensure the collaboration between patient/public partners and researchers in all steps of the review.

Hope for "Continued Vitality": Qualitative Study of Adults With Traumatic Brain Injury and Low Mood on Their Rehabilitation.

Objective: Depression is highly comorbid with traumatic brain injury (TBI) with often complex and interacting symptomology that contributes to the experience of disability. Comorbid depression results in poorer TBI rehabilitation and downstream participation outcomes yet perspectives of this group regarding person-centered care is unknown.

Purpose: This study aimed to explicate the perspectives of persons with TBI and depression on their values, preferences, and desired outcomes for optimal rehabilitation.

Representation in rehabilitation research of adults with traumatic brain injury and depression: A scoping review.

: To determine how well comorbid depression is described, defined, and measured in the rehabilitation literature that pertains to TBI and depression.: Scoping review of the rehabilitation sciences literature. Six databases were searched (to October 17, 2018) using the three core concepts of TBI, depression, and rehabilitation, as was for gray literature.

Scoping Review on Rehabilitation Scoping Reviews.

Objective: To examine the extent, scope, and methodological quality of rehabilitation scoping reviews.

Data Sources: A comprehensive list of scoping reviews conducted in the broader health field (inception to July 2014), with a further update of that list (up to February 2017) using similar methods, including searching 9 electronic databases.

Study Selection: Articles were included if they were scoping reviews within rehabilitation.

Therapists' experience of the cognitive orientation to daily occupational performance (CO-OP) approach: Shifting from conventional practice.

The CO-OP Approach has been increasingly used in research and practice, yet its critical elements and implementation challenges are largely undescribed. Obtaining therapists' perspectives on CO-OP may reveal insights into potential critical and mediating factors.: To explore the experiences of CO-OP therapists by understanding their perceptions on the approach compared with conventional practice, and by identifying mediating factors in its implementation.

Systematic Review of Measurement Property Evidence for 8 Financial Management Instruments in Populations With Acquired Cognitive Impairment.

Objectives: To critically appraise the measurement property evidence (ie, psychometric) for 8 observation-based financial management assessment instruments.

Data Sources: Seven databases were searched in May 2015.

Study Selection: Two reviewers used an independent decision-agreement process to select studies of measurement property evidence relevant to populations with adulthood acquired cognitive impairment, appraise the quality of the evidence, and extract data.

Optimising activity and participation outcomes for people with self-awareness impairments related to acquired brain injury: an interventions systematic review.

Impaired self-awareness related to acquired brain injury (ABI-ISA) can result in limitations in daily living activities and community participation. We hypothesise that with the appropriate interventions, outcomes for adults with ABI-ISA can be enhanced. The objectives of the study were to describe and examine critically the non-pharmacological intervention literature and to identify intervention elements that optimise everyday living outcomes in adults with ABI-ISA.

Study protocol for a scoping review on rehabilitation scoping reviews.

Scoping reviews are increasingly popular in rehabilitation. However, significant variability in scoping review conduct and reporting currently exists, limiting potential for the methodology to advance rehabilitation research, practice and policy. Our aim is to conduct a scoping review of rehabilitation scoping reviews in order to examine the current volume, yearly distribution, proportion, scope and methodological practices involved in the conduct of scoping reviews in rehabilitation.

Forensic Occupational Therapy in Canada: The Current State of Practice.

Although occupational therapists have been practicing in forensic settings for many years, there is a paucity of literature regarding the nature of this practice in Canada. The purpose of this study was to describe the practices of Canadian occupational therapists in forensic mental health. An online survey was designed based on the Canadian Practice Process Framework.
