In this article researches assessed the effectiveness of sensory-enhanced Hatha Yoga on symptoms of combat stress for deployed military personnel. In this study the researchers compared the anxiety and sensory processing abilities of the deployed military personnel with stateside civilians using the State-Trial Anxiety Inventory scales and the Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile Quadrants. There was a total of 70 participants, 35 received 3 wks of treatment and 35 did not. The sensory-enhanced hatha yoga was shown to be effective in reducing state and trait anxiety. Researchers also found positive correlations with all test measures excepts sensory seeking, which was negatively correlated with all measures except low registration. These results support the use of sensory enhanced hatha yoga as a proactive approach for stress management for deployed military personnel.

This article discusses the use and effectiveness of constraint induced movement therapy for patients who have suffered a stroke. Constraint induced movement therapy is a widely researched treatment technique with mixed results. This study found that the technique can be beneficial at improving upper extremity function but may not be a time or cost effective method.

Canadian Association of Occupational Therapists - 0 views

I came across the Canadian Association of Occupational Therapists Code of Ethics in my search. The code of ethics begins with a preamble to define occupational therapy and beliefs occupational therapists have about their professional duties. They include beliefs on occupation, the person, the environment, overall health, and client centered practice. The code of ethics then outlines ethical expectations for members of the CAOT, and makes reference to the Canadian Occupational Therapy Practice Framework. This is interesting to compare to the American Occupational Therapy Association, and see where we can make improvements based off of what is presented by CAOT.

This is an excellent resource for grades 1 through 8 to understand average words per minute and legibility of students' handwriting. It also has statistics for keyboarding for your use when working with children who are keyboarding instead of writing. It could help you to have an idea of goals to shoot for and even distinguishes between gender as well.
