Occupation Based Models/Frames of Reference Template ACOTE Standard: B.2.11, B.3.2 Explanation : During the course of the semester, this class will cover overarching theories and frames of refer- ence guiding occupational therapy assessment and intervention. This is a graded assignment that you will submit regularly throughout the term, which is designed to reinforce key concepts and information that will be assessed through the Signature Assignment, other assignments,and the Midterm and Final Exams. It is strongly recommended that students work on this activity in groups to allow for discussion and clarification of concepts (but individual submission is required). Occupation Based Models/Frames of Reference (FOR) MODEL/FOR: Applied Behavioral Frame of Reference Model/FOR Component Definitions Focus of the Model/FOR Assumptions Main Concepts View of the Person · Usually a population with: ASD (autism spectrum disorder), intellectual deficits, psychiatric diagnoses (OCD, phobias) · What things act as motivators for each individual. · Operant conditioning: learned behaviors occur in one's natural environ- ment as a result of reinforcement. View of Occupation · Gradually, moving from continual to intermittent reinforcement helps them to internalize expectations and standards for effective, occupa- tional performance. View of Environment · Looking at the contexts within which clients demonstrate maladaptive behaviors, in order to determine what aspects of clients natural environ- ments might be reinforcing unwanted behaviors. Attention of others even negative attention so just criticism or punishment may actually be reinforcing for the client and this can only change through Collaboration families or other members of the clients social group. · Environmental contexts within which the behavior occurs. FUNCTION/DYSFUNCTION CONTINUUM How does this Model/FOR define healthy or opti- mal functioning? How does this Model/FOR define Dysfunction/Dis- ability? GUIDE FOR EVALUATION-What is the focus of evaluation? What tools are available?

GUIDE FOR INTERVENTION-What is the focus of intervention? What tools are available? · Tends to be specific to the target behavior, either developing new skills or coping strategies or systemati- cally eliminating unwanted behaviors. · Stress management is a common area for intervention · Teaching skills - new behaviors may be learned through chaining steps of a task and shaping the new behavior through reinforcement.. Environment is controlled. · Behavior contracts- written agreement on what both client and therapist will do with regard to working on specific, defined goals. Especially helpful for mental health clients to keep them accountable. · Relaxation Training- common therapeutic approach for coping with anxiety. Some contemporary mes- sage include deep, breathing, progressive muscle, relaxation, self hypnosis, meditation, and autogenic training (body awareness). · Can treat insomnia, pain, anger, ADHD, and impulse control problems. · Systematic Desensitization- therapist introduces images of approaching the feared situation through visualization. And visualizing each step in the sequence that the client identifies as a least to most anxi- ety producing event for him or her is called successive approximation, or gradually, approaching, and facing ones greatest fear (phobia). · This approach uses both behavioral modification and cognitive behavioral concepts therefore bridging the gap between traditional and current approaches. Current self-help websites teach many of these techniques in the context of weight, loss, fitness, relaxation stress, reduction, childrearing, and self man- agement of problem behaviors such a smoking and substance abuse. · Exposure and Ritual Prevention (ERP)- self management approach to reduce or eliminate, repeating rituals using the behavioral concepts of habituation and extinction. Coach will reassure her that it is not a mistake.. Extinction- stopping unwanted behaviors by removing the reinforcers that facilitate it. · This technique usually requires repeated exposure with coach present usually taking 6 to 8 weeks for 2 to 3 hours a day to accomplish . · Collaborative Therapeutic Homework- enhance generalization lessons, learned in social skills or life skill groups or any other type of Occupational skills training. · Involves a precise set of written instructions to be completed before the next occupational ther- apy session with client and therapist, choosing together the skill to be practiced . CHANGE AND MOTIVATION-According to the Model/FOR, how does change occur? · Reinforcement- once a desired behavior is defined cues or reminders are given by the therapist, par- ent or teacher to help shape the behavior to be learned. When the client demonstrates the desired be- havior, reinforcement is provided to work correctly. The therapist needs to fully understand what is rein- forcing to the client. · Self produced consequences- perceptions about how terrible one would feel if they did not do the task. · meeting one’s own internalized self-imposed standards represents the most effective type of rein- forcement. · Extinguishing unwanted behaviors- behavior modification is perhaps best known as a method for al- tering unwanted behaviors, such as compulsive, rituals, irrational fears, self-destructive behaviors, and bad habits. Extinguishing undesirable behaviors involves withdrawal of reinforcement. · Requires a great deal of attention to detail as well as motivation on the part of the client. · Forming New Habits with Technology- · Persuasive technology- Use computers to control human thoughts and actions. · Rewards at unpredictable times.

STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES OF THE Model/FOR Strengths: · Focuses on only the external features of human functioning that can be observed and measured. · Commonly applied through self management or self-regulation strategies, which are more compatible with a client centered approach. · · Behavioral modification can be useful for anyone who wishes to form a new habit, or to break a bad one. Weaknesses: · Mostly used for those with OCD, phobias, ADHD, head injuries, developmental disabilities · If person has constant maladaptive behavior, this frame of reference won’t work · In adult learning theory, many people tend to move away from the behavioral frames because it's as- sumed that the cognitive levels should influence the behaviors at a greater rate than in childhood or with individuals who have learning disabilities or cognitive deficits. COMPARE AND CONTRAST THIS Model/FOR WITH THE OTHERS STUDIED: Identify overlapping concepts between this and other models Identify concepts unique to this model Add Additional Notes, Diagrams, Etc. to support your studies here:
