Abstract

Date Presented 4/8/2016

A phenomenological design examined how 1st-yr MOT students perceive changes in occupational roles, patterns, and routines and what strategies they use to adapt to these changes. The three themes that emerged were occupational imbalance, lifestyle rebalancing, and developing new occupations.
