The profession of occupational therapy has a highly specialised
language, but until now there have been no standard definitions of
its key terms. Based on the work of the terminology project group
of the European Network of Occupational Therapy in Higher Education
(ENOTHE), this book selects and defines the core building blocks of
occupational therapy theory. Consensus definitions of a wide range
of terms are developed through an analysis of published definitions
from around the world. Concepts with similar meanings are clustered
into groups, and the clusters are then arranged into a conceptual
map. The book provides an analysis of what each term means in
common usage, how it is used in occupational therapy, and its
implications for therapeutic practice. The conceptual framework
that emerges represents an important contribution to the
profession's understanding of the fundamental concepts of
occupational therapy. The consensus definitions presented in this
book will facilitate communication between professionals as well as
with clients and others, and will be of interest to occupational
therapy practitioners, students, educators and researchers.
