  • Title: Attitudes of graduates toward occupational therapy education.
    Author: Christiansen CH.
    Journal: Am J Occup Ther; 1975 Jul; 29(6):352-5. PubMed ID: 1180317.
    Abstract:
    Recently graduated occupational therapists were surveyed to determine their perceptions of the adequacy of their professional training. Through a mailed questionnaire, therapists evaluated their undergraduate professional preparation based upon their clinical experiences since graduation. Additional suggestions were solicited regarding possible areas of curriculum change, and the survey gave special attention to the area of interpersonal skill development. Responses were examined for areas of commonality and possible use in curriculum planning and modification. Results indicated that recent graduates see a need for more and earlier patient contact, increased attention to the development of administrative and managerial skills, and courses designed to facilitate skills necessary for effective interpersonal relationships.
