Authors: Clancey Sara 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Date Presented 03/26/20
This research studied a developmental and relationship-based intervention that provided parents with the capacity to co-regulate their toddlers and support their development of empathy. This intervention was provided to mothers who have adopted toddlers with a history of substance exposure or neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS). As rates of children with substance exposure and NAS increase, OTs will find interventions such as this one useful and effective in helping these children and their families.

Published: July 2020

Abstract
Date Presented 03/26/20
At the same time as technology advances, it is important to apply ICT-based intervention to the elderly before they enter a post-aged society. Most domestic studies on ICT are case studies or single-group pretest experiments, and few randomized controlled trials exist. Therefore, this study aims to identify the trend and effect of ICT-based interventions by systematically reviewing randomized controlled trials among studies published in foreign journals on ICT-based interventions for the elderly.

Authors: Merritt Victoria , Caldwell Angela 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Date Presented 03/26/20
This preliminary data analysis identifies a parent-empowerment strategy that may be important for encouraging children to try new foods. Parents who reported having clear rules and routines for their family demonstrated approximately nine times greater odds that their child would willingly try new foods. Educating parents to emphasize clear rules and routines, specifically during mealtimes, may create a predictable mealtime experience and allow children to feel comfortable exploring novel foods.

Published: July 2020

Abstract
Date Presented 03/26/20
Despite the coexistence of sensory modulation disorder (SMD), anxiety, and altered interoceptive awareness (AIA) in adults, correlations between these constructs are limited in existing literature. This study examined a sample of over 150 typical adults and found moderate correlations between SMD, anxiety, AIA, and quality of life. Understanding correlations between these constructs may contribute to a better understanding of impact on occupations and more efficacious OT interventions.

Legibility as a Significant Measure for Evaluation of Handwriting Performance Among Adolescents in OT
Authors: Hen-Herbst Liat , Fogel Yael , Rosenblum Sara , Barnett Anna 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Date Presented 03/27/20
Adolescents with handwriting difficulties are referred to OT services due to inadequate writing process (speed and space) or product (illegibility). Executive function (EF) components are one of the underlying mechanisms of handwriting. The results indicate that EF levels of adolescents with handwriting difficulties were correlated only with product legibility. The results emphasize the importance of using a standardized tool to evaluate legibility in this population.
