Question 1
Assisted Living provides residential care for elders focused on autonomy and ADL support.
Correct Answer:
Assisted Living
Explanation:
This item tests understanding of elder care settings and how autonomy and daily activity support are provided in those settings. Assisted living is a residential option designed for older adults who want to maintain independence while receiving help with daily activities. It offers a home-like environment with services such as assistance with bathing, dressing, medication management, meals, housekeeping, and transportation, all aimed at enabling participation in daily life while keeping residents safe. Hospice, in contrast, centers on comfort and quality of life at the end of life, and may be provided at home or in a facility rather than focusing on broad ADL independence. A group home provides shared housing with some supervision, but it isn’t specifically geared toward the structured ADL support and autonomy emphasis typical of assisted living. Inpatient psychiatric care is about acute mental health treatment and stabilization, not elder ADL support. So the description aligns best with assisted living.
Question 2
Which approach uses SIPT for assessment in children?
Correct Answer:
Sensory Integration
Explanation:
SIPT is the standardized assessment toolkit used within the Sensory Integration approach to evaluate how a child processes sensory information and plans motor actions. It specifically examines tactile, vestibular, and proprioceptive processing, along with modulation, discrimination, and praxis (motor planning). The results help identify patterns of sensory processing that can underlie learning and behavior, guiding interventions that use structured, sensory-rich activities and environmental adaptations. Other approaches—such as motor-focused methods, routine-based training, or behavioral techniques—do not rely on the SIPT for assessment. Therefore, the approach that uses SIPT for assessment in children is Sensory Integration.
Question 3
The PEOP Model integrates three components: Person, Environment, and Occupation. Which scholar is associated with developing this model?
Correct Answer:
Carolyn Baum
Explanation:
The PEOP model centers on how performance emerges from the dynamic interaction of three factors: the person, the environment, and the occupations they engage in. Carolyn Baum is recognized as the co-developer of this framework, often alongside a collaborator, which is why her name is linked to its creation. This model provides a practical lens for OT practice, guiding how changes in personal factors, environmental supports or barriers, and the chosen activities can improve overall performance and participation. Mary Law is known for the CMOP model, not PEOP, while John Locke is a philosopher and Wilma West a foundational OT educator not tied to developing this model.
Question 4
Which initiative emphasizes being accessible, collaborative, effective, and influential leaders?
Correct Answer:
Vision 2025
Explanation:
Vision 2025 is the initiative that describes leaders as accessible, collaborative, effective, and influential. This strategic plan from AOTA guides the profession toward leadership that makes OT services widely reachable, works well with clients, families, and other professionals, achieves meaningful health outcomes, and shapes policy and practice. Those exact leadership attributes are spelled out in Vision 2025, which is why it’s the best answer. Occupational Science is the academic study of occupation, while Yerxa’s and Townsend’s definitions present ways to describe what occupational therapy is, not a leadership initiative.
Question 5
Mary Reilly Theory describes the CNS demands as varied stimuli provided by solving life problems through occupation. Which of the following best matches this theory?
Correct Answer:
Mary Reilly Theory
Explanation:
This matches Mary Reilly's Occupational Behavior theory, which teaches that people grow and learn through engaging in meaningful occupations. The central idea is that the central nervous system is challenged by the varied demands of real-life problems solved through purposeful activity. In other words, occupations provide the sensory, cognitive, and motor stimuli the CNS needs to adapt and develop. Reilly emphasized that occupation, not passive therapy, is the vehicle for change, with the environment presenting a range of tasks to stimulate growth. The other names are not tied to this specific view of how CNS demands arise from solving life problems through occupation, whereas Mary Reilly's theory centers exactly on that relationship between occupation, CNS stimulation, and adaptation.
