Paradigm of OT
Paradigm is the organizing principle for OT knowledge. Everything we have learned in school is filtered through practice models. We will call these applied theories
Occupation Based Models Frames of Reference

Two types of models in OT: 1. Conceptual Models explain WHY OT works, validate value of OT but tend to be generic and do not address specific areas of practice

Applied Theories in OT
Represent different levels of theory. Some more well-researched than others. How do we know whether the strategies work in practice (evidence-based interventions)? How do we measure outcomes (assessment tools based on theory)?

Evaluation: Each frame of reference has specific tools for evaluating the extent of function/dysfunction. Example: What are some ways to assess range of motion, muscle strength, and endurance (biomechanical frame)?

Interventions (formerly called treatment) Each frame of reference has specific strategies for intervention which have been developed and researched to varying degrees. Example: What are some interventions for biomechanical disabilities (rom, strength, endurance, pain)?
