Define Following Occupation Based Models of OT Flashcards

1. Person
2. Environment
3. Occupation

Occupational performance is the outcome of the relationship between person, the unique environment in which he/she functions and occupations. It is the actual execution or carrying out of an occupation. The better the fit (overlap) between the three elements that stronger the person's occupational performance will be. In contrast the less the fit between the three elements the lesser the person's occupational performance will be.
