Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
Sexuality is a fundamental human occupation, yet research shows practitioners and clients rarely address these issues within OT practice. This presentation discusses the results of a web-based survey of 80 entry-level OT educators regarding attitudes and perceptions about teaching topics related to sexuality. The researchers aim to encourage future research and educational practices focusing on increasing the delivery of sexuality content within entry-level OT education.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
Peer support specialists (PSS) are persons with lived experience of mental illness who have transitioned from service consumer to provider. This transition can bring occupational challenges (competence) and role confusion (identity) that affect occupational adaptation. The aim of this study was to identify the occupational needs of PSS and explore how OT practitioners can support this transition and further develop OT’s distinct value in the mental health settings to which PSS are integral.

Perceptions of Stress, Mindfulness, and Occupational Engagement Among Graduate-Level OT Students
Authors: Henton Patricia A. , Gambrel Acacia , Klah Jerome , Rink Catherine , Targonski Caroline , Wirtz Sarah 
Published: August 2021

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
The exploratory mixed-methods study of 490 OT graduate students revealed that high levels of reported stress along with limited coping strategies impacted students’ perceived occupational engagement and quality of life. Students identified mindfulness as an effective coping mechanism; however, its reported use did not appear to alter quality of life. The study supported a link between mindfulness and occupational engagement and has broad implications for the field of OT.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
This descriptive study examined OT referrals in an interdisciplinary concussion clinic. Data analyzed show that patients referred to OT presented to clinic evaluation further out from injury; had missed more days from school, work, and physical activity; were lacking a routine; and were not socially active. These results provide variables that indicate the need for OT assessment, guide clinicians in the referral process, and advance the role of OT in concussion management.
