Abstract
The "Wheelchair Assessment Specific to Occupational Therapy and the Person-Environment-Occupation-Person Framework: A Reference Manual" is a research project that critically reviews various evaluation tools available on the web and commonly used by physical and occupational therapists. These tools aim to assess cognitive, physical, and environmental factors that impact individuals’ performance, participation, and safety using wheelchairs in various settings at present, these tools only cover a limited number of elements within the PEOP framework, with none entailing all the components of the person, environment, occupation, and performance as outlined in the PEOP framework. The primary goal of our research is to identify assessments that incorporate elements of the PEOP framework, demonstrating validity, reliability among different assessors, stability over time, and clarity and relevance in their questions. These assessments will be compiled into a manual, which will serve as a reference for a secondary group tasked with creating a comprehensive assessment that fully incorporates the PEOP framework. Such a tool could prove beneficial for wheelchair users and future therapists alike.
