  • Title: The derailment of occupational therapy.
    Author: Shannon PD.
    Journal: Am J Occup Ther; 1977 Apr; 31(4):229-34. PubMed ID: 322498.
    Abstract:
    The derailment of occupational therapy, exemplified by the profession's symbiosis with the medical model, its alignment with the rehabilitation movement, and its devaluation of the arts and crafts is the central theme of this article. The occupational behavior paradigm, which represents a recommitment to the values and beliefs of the profession's founders, has emerged to arrest the derailment process and thereby reinstate the substantive goals of occupational therapy.
