Students will develop advanced knowledge of theoretical and research literatures that inform current understandings of the multidimensional nature of occupation. Students gain an overview of current conceptual understandings of occupation through critically analysing and evaluating literature and research in occupational science that explores the multidimensional nature of occupation and its relationships with health and wellbeing. Students will review literature related to understanding occupational engagement in childhood, adulthood, or older adulthood; and to reflect on its applicability in occupational therapy. Students will also have opportunities to work together to evaluate a range of methodologies used to investigate relevant research questions.
