Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
In this pretest–posttest pilot study, OT students’ knowledge of and involvement in political processes was assessed using the Political Astuteness Inventory (PAI) before and after an educational session on health policy. The results of the study support using education to improve political astuteness and that the PAI can be used as an outcome measure for programs designed to improve this skill.

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
Upper extremity (UE) functional recovery after stroke requires the integration of motor and sensory systems. We describe the relationship among recovery of somatosensation, motor impairment, and manual dexterity from acute to 3 months poststroke. Sensory retraining emphasized in conjunction with motor interventions after stroke may improve functional UE outcomes.

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
Both action observation and repetitive-task practice are efficacious interventions for poststroke upper limb hemiplegia individually, yet these interventions have not been combined before. A feasibility study was completed to determine preliminary evidence of the response to intervention and if a Phase III study should be completed to test efficacy of the combined intervention. The functional impact of improving post stroke upper limb performance could benefit millions of stroke survivors.

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
Up to 87% of individuals in intensive care units (ICUs) are at risk of developing delirium (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). OT is a skilled service that has been shown to help prevent and decrease the severity of delirium (lvarez et al., 2017). However, OT practitioners are not always welcome within ICUs to treat this population. OTs were surveyed to identify the factors influencing the OT presence in the management of ICU delirium.

Cognitive Ability, Apathy, and Depression Influence Social Participation Poststroke
Authors: Magee Laura , Nicholas Marjorie , Connor Lisa 
Published: August 2021

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the extent to which cognitive ability and emotional health predict social participation poststroke for people with and without aphasia. Apathy was found to be an independent predictor of social participation. The results of this study indicate that apathy ought to be further investigated as its own, stand-alone predictor of social participation among the population with stroke and should be recognized and addressed in rehabilitation.

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
This study used a hermeneutic phenomenological approach to explore the effects of yoga on healing from trauma through amplifying the narratives of trauma survivors with yoga practices consisting of asana, pranayama, and meditation. Interviews indicated multilayered effects of trauma across virtually all occupations, of which yoga was seen to promote well-being and embodied healing. This suggests a powerful opportunity for OT to integrate yoga to address trauma in a holistic way.

This qualitative, observational research study explored treatment encounters between patients with disorders of consciousness, rehabilitation practitioners, and family to understand how treatment decisions occurred. The data showed shared decision making (SDM) occurring as a process, meaning that not all five principles of SDM occur in one clinical encounter but rather unfold across multiple clinical encounters. We delineate differences in SDM between rehabilitation and the medical model.

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
Participation is the overarching goal of neurorehabilitation and OT interventions. Despite this emphasis on participation, evidence suggests that people with traumatic brain injury (TBI) have poor participation. It is clear that socioeconomic status has a relationship with other health outcomes, but little is known about its relationship with participation after TBI. The objective of this research was to examine disparities in participation after TBI between household income groups.

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
Health care is shifting from volume to value, and there is a need to define the distinct value of services. OT is founded on the principles of person-centered care, and the intentional use of these strategies must be part of evidence-based outcomes in order to solidify the value of OT services. This study examined the use of person-centered care in clinical practice, and results were used to develop capacity-building strategies for implementation of a person-centered approach.

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
Research has focused on diet, exercise, and cognitive–behavioral therapy as the core components of weight loss programs. However, a sustainable weight loss is still challenging, maybe because of an individual perspective. Our long-term aim is to develop a holistic evidence- and OT-based weight loss program. Our studies show that the three usual components should be extended with habit, social relations, and occupational balance integrated into everyday life.

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
The incidence of motor, cognitive, and language delay among children who were born preterm (&lt; 32 weeks gestation) is high. Estimated gestational age at birth appears to influence the timing of discharge, with infants born earlier being discharged later after accounting for the degree of prematurity. Postmenstrual age at discharge appears to be related to motor outcome in early childhood, shedding light on the high-risk nature of this population of infants still hospitalized after their due date.
