Abstract The relationship between emotional intelligence, executive functioning, and sensory processing has been independently studied. The present study investigated the relationship among executive functions, sensory processing and emotional intelligence in children aged between 8 and 11 years (n = 71). Executive functions and sensory processing were measured using EPYFEI and Clocks Subtest of NEPSY-II and emotional intelligence was measured with EQ:i-YV, Affect Recognition and Theory of Mind subtests of NEPSY-II. Children with lower emotional intelligence showed differences in sensory processing. The current research provides initial evidence of relations between emotional intelligence, stress management and sensory processing in children.

Abstract The purpose of this study was to describe sensory preferences of adults with substance use disorder using Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile (A/ASP), and to explore relationships between sensory preferences and substance of preference. Participants (N = 57) completed a survey and A/ASP. Majority scored “similar to most” in all four quadrants of A/ASP when compared to the normative samples, despite previous research indicating differences in sensory preferences for this population. Participants reported alcohol, heroin, and marijuana as most preferred substances. There were no statistically significant associations between sensory preferences and substance preferences within substance groups, with p-values ranging from .067 to .904. Occupational therapists can use results of A/ASP to help clients develop alternative substance-free recovery.

Abstract Student veterans may find reintegration into civilian life difficult, largely due to social factors. This study used occupational therapy practitioners to facilitate photovoice to gain insight into participants’ social experiences transitioning from military to student civilian life. Fifteen photovoice pieces were generated from discussions, photos, and narratives from the seven male participants. Five themes were identified: Camaraderie, Alienation, Identifying Challenges, Rising to the Challenges, and Diversity and Military and Veteran Students. The study has disseminated the photovoice pieces to generate awareness and shape programs and services on campus consistent with a respectful, radically welcoming, military-affirming campus supporting student academic success.

Abstract Sensory modulation has growing evidence supporting use within inpatient settings; however, few studies focus on community mental health and specific sensory equipment integrated into the environment for consumers. Qualitative methodology was used to explore 31 staff's perspectives on glider chair use in community mental health (consumers aged 16–65 years). Five themes emerged: (1) Use when anxiety or distress are present; (2) Various explanations of benefits; (3) Facilitates the treatment process; (4) Limited understanding and need for training; (5) Physical, social, and financial barriers. Sensory modulation interventions may enhance consumers’ engagement in treatment. Research exploring consumers’ perspectives of sensory modulation interventions is required. Implications for occupational therapy practice This study suggests the following implications for occupational therapy and mental health practice: •Sensory equipment, such as glider chairs, may be useful for consumers’ self-management of anxiety and distress across a range of mental health treatment settings, including community mental health treatment services. •Consumers’ ability to engage in treatment may be improved with the use of sensory modulation interventions/equipment that provides a sense of calm and comfort. •Occupational therapists are viewed as leaders of sensory modulation interventions in mental health practice and likely need to drive multidisciplinary staff sensory modulation training and use to promote continuity of care from acute mental health settings to real-life environments in the community. •Multidisciplinary staff may be uncertain about why sensory modulation interventions have a positive influence on consumers’ behavior and functioning and occupational therapists can respond to this uncertainty with support in the form of sensory modulation education.

Abstract This study examined whether equine-assisted therapy is effective for treating developmental disorders. Equine-assisted activities (not including horseback riding) were performed once a week for 10 months at a Japanese daycare center. Social maturity and self-esteem were assessed every two months. The participants were six children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), three with autism spectrum disorder, three with anxiety disorder, and one each with obsessive-compulsive disorder, reactive attachment disorder, and somatic symptom disorder. The equine-assisted activities improved self-esteem in all participants. Improvements in occupation in those who continued for 10 months and self-direction in those with ADHD were observed.

Abstract Everything a person does generates a unique experience of occupational value, and occupational values can in turn generate meaning in life. Doing creative activities positively influences subjective health and well-being. This article provides information about how and to what extent people diagnosed with mental illness experienced occupational value when participating in an intervention with creative activities. Thirty-three participants provided data within a mixed-methods design. Data were analyzed by quantitative non-parametric statistical methods and qualitative directed content analysis. Interventions with creative activities enable a high degree of experienced occupation value and are associated with all dimensions in the occupational value triad.

Abstract The inclusion of service user perspectives in the development of acute mental health services is recommended in policy. Therefore exploration of their experiences in this setting is merited. This study synthesized qualitative research on service user experiences of occupational therapy in the acute mental health setting using thematic synthesis. The synthesis shows the unique role of occupational therapists in the setting. Service users identified the impact of the profession through environmental transformation, therapeutic relationships, and occupation-focused interventions. Issues of accessibility and availability of interventions were identified. Further research on this topic in a wider range of cultural contexts is recommended.

Abstract This exploratory study focused on students’ perspectives of an interprofessional TeamSTEPPS simulation related to grief and loss on the development of empathy. This study used a nonrandom, purposeful sample of 45 first-year occupational therapy students from one Midwestern university during a single semester. Results identified three primary themes specific to empathy with corresponding subthemes. Two primary themes emerged in relation to current and future learning opportunities for enhanced empathy development through engagement with simulated clients. These results were reviewed in light of the occupational therapy literature on empathy and interprofessional education. Limitations include ungeneralizable data and subjective student responses.
