Abstract The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between sensory profiles and the quality of life. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 99 participants, with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile, the WHOQOL-BREF and PANSS were administered. A stepwise linear regression analysis was performed, with those variables of the sensory profile and the dimensions of quality of life that showed a statistically significant correlation. Participants with lower quality of life (WHOQOL-Bref score ≤ 60) showed a higher score in Low Registration profile (t(97) = 2; p = .048; δ = .42). Physical Health showed a moderate negative correlation with Sensory Sensitivity profile (r = −.415; p < .01) and Sensation Avoiding (r = −.372; p < .05). Psychological Health showed a moderate negative correlation with Low Registration (r = −.354; p < .01), Sensory Sensitivity (r = −.307; p < .01) and auditory processing (r = −.343; p < .01). Sensory preference could be a key aspect of mental health rehabilitation programs. Sensory modulation issues seem to be related to the quality of life of patients with schizophrenia. KEY POINTS Sensory preference could be a key aspect of mental health rehabilitation programs. Mental health services should consider the sensory profile of the patient in the evaluation and intervention. Sensory modulation approaches could be complementary interventions to improve the quality of life of people with schizophrenia.

Abstract There has been increasing concern about student mental health, self-efficacy, and their impact on approaches to learning. Little is known about how these three constructs relate and change over time. This is a second study exploring graduate occupational and physical therapy students’ approaches to studying, mental health factors, self-efficacy, and changes in relationships between these factors over time. We found that higher self-efficacy was related to higher deep approach ratings, while higher mental health ratings were related to higher strategic approach ratings and lower surface approach ratings. Self-efficacy and mental health show relatively consistent associations over time with student approaches to learning.

Abstract There is limited focus on children of parents with mental illness (COPMI). This study explored the psychosocial functioning and occupational participation of COPMI. We used a mixed methods study design where parents’ perceptions about the adolescent’s psychosocial functioning were measured quantitatively, followed by qualitative interviews with some of the adolescents. Results indicated close to average levels of psychosocial functioning among the adolescents while the qualitative findings suggested some issues related to their emotional well-being. Limitations of this study include fewer participants and psychosocial functioning of the adolescents being measured through parents’ perceptions.

Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic further added to the work stress in vulnerable inexperienced health professionals establishing their professional identity. The objective of this study was to analyze burnout among South African occupational therapists, with between 2 and 5 years of experience, during COVID-19 lockdown. A survey using the Maslach Burnout Inventory–Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS), completed by 261 occupational therapists indicated higher levels of emotional exhaustion (EE) and depersonalization (DP) than that reported in normative data and occupational therapy studies. Over 60% of participants indicated a high level of personal accomplishment (PA), a protective factor to burnout in occupational therapy.

Abstract This article explores the experiences of fifteen occupational therapists during the Covid-19 pandemic. Participants from rural and urban areas in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, were recruited using snowball sampling. Semi-structured interviews and personal narratives were used to collect data on occupational engagement during the pandemic. Inductive thematic analysis was used. The impact of Covid-19 on occupational engagement, occupational adaptations, factors that negatively influenced occupational engagement and enablers to occupational engagement emerged as themes. Participants experienced role changes at work and home, as well as feelings of isolation. It is essential to advocate for the role of occupation therapy during a pandemic.

Abstract A high prevalence of smoking has been reported among people receiving care within inpatient and forensic mental health services. An Irish inpatient mental health service introduced a “smoke free campus” policy in 2018. Six semi-structured interviews were completed with patients within this setting in 2019. Using thematic analysis, five themes were identified: Experience of stakeholder support, routine, experience of being an inpatient, the meaning of smoking, and the experience and perception of the smoking policy and governing bodies. The findings have implications for staff who work in mental health inpatient settings or who develop policies regarding smoking on hospital sites.

Abstract Participation is an important measure of disorder severity. Although posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) often causes functional impairment, the literature about challenges in basic and instrumental activities of daily living (ADL) among adults with PTSD appears limited. To describe the encountered challenges according to the existing literature, a systematic search identified 20 articles published between 1995 and 2021. These studies described various limitations on ADL among adults with PTSD, mostly (60%) in broad terms; thus, failing to identify the exact challenging domains. This review discusses the need for research and clinical practice to systematically evaluate basic and instrumental ADL in PTSD.

Abstract Parenting supports are critical for mothers with substance use disorders (SUD) in treatment and recovery. Early intervention is a vital protective factor for children with developmental and behavioral challenges due to prenatal substance exposure and early adversity. We present the Trauma Informed Parenting (TIP) intervention model for mothers parenting young children while in residential SUD treatment. Its design was guided by principles and practices of occupational therapy, trauma-informed care, and relationship-focused early intervention. We describe the development, implementation and short-term outcomes of the intervention, characteristics of the mothers (N = 150) and children (N = 96), and discuss lessons learned.

Abstract Peer support is one of the pillars of the recovery model in mental health care. The purpose is to specify the interventions performed by peer support workers (PSWs) and identify the outcomes in terms of the occupational therapy (OT) process with statistical incidence. A systematic review of the peer-to-peer technique in OT was carried out using the PRISMA guidelines and searching scientific databases. The results were ordered according to the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework-4, finding significant positive results in 7 of the 10 outcome categories. PSWs can be essential partners in achieving the goals of the OT program.
