This study was a pre and post quasi-experimental design study using a single group about the analysis of the changes in the performance level of activities of daily living and depression of the elderly with mild cognitive impairment through the participation in the cognitive program. Study subjects were the 16 elderly with mild cognitive impairment using a W welfare center in J city and they participated in cognitive program for a total of 8 weeks, twice a week. The assessment about the performance level of activities of daily living and depression were performed through the program. As the results, after participating in the program, study subjects' performance level of activities of daily living were significantly significant improved, and depression levels were statistically significantly reduced. Thus, to improve the performance level of activities of daily living and reduce the depression levels of the elderly with mild cognitive impairment, the cognitive program should be used as a intervention program and then in the process, it is necessary to actively induce the participation of the elderly with mild cognitive impairment.

The parallel/distributed processing with a lot of the idle hosts on the web has the high coot-performance ratio for large-scale applications. It's processing has to show the solutions for unpredictable status such as heterogeneity of hosts, variability of hosts, autonomy of hosts, the supporting performance continuously, and the number of hosts which are participated in computation and so on. In this paper, we propose the strategy of adaptive tack reallocation based on performance the host job processing, spread out geographically Also, It shows the scheme of dynamic host management with dynamic environment, which is changed by lots of hosts on the web during parallel processing for large-scale applications. This paper implements the PDSWeb (Parallel/Distributed Scheme on Web) system, evaluates and applies It to the generation of rendering image with highly intensive computation. The results are showed that the adaptive task reallocation with the variation of hosts has been increased up to maximum 90% and the improvement in performance according to add/delete of hosts.

In this study, the method of multiple working hypotheses (MMWH) as a method of earth scientific inquiry was applied in a context of abductive reasoning about the formation of a rock with a specific structure, and the characteristics of MMWH revealed in the reasoning process were explored. Participants were 31 senior undergraduate students enrolled in a course in a university of education. As part of the course, the participants performed abductive inquiry with multiple working hypotheses about the formation of a rock. The students were asked to record both the processes and results of their reasoning in sketchbooks. The content of the students' sketchbook reports was analyzed according to the principle of analytic induction. Results demonstrated four assertions. First, the participants' working hypotheses were suggested in the use of resource models, and the adaption of the resource models often occurred in this process. Second, the perceptual properties of evidence influenced the activation of the resource models. Third, the kinds of observed evidence and the different interpretations of evidence resulted into different judgments on working hypotheses. Fourth, sometimes new hypotheses were generated by the combination of alternative hypotheses. Implications of these findings for earth science education and relevant research were discussed.

Objective : Purpose of this study is to discuss benefits and implications of the clinical reasoning process and re-evaluation in the OTIPM by introducing a single case that occupational therapy intervention is provided based on the OTIPM. Methods : The case subject is a boy aged 5 years and 10 month who had diagnosed as attachment disorder and anxiety disorder from a pediatric psychiatrist before. The boy is referred to sensory integration therapy clinic and underwent occupational therapy intervention service twice a week for four month. Therapeutic activities for the intervention were consisted of sensory integration activities for restorative model, care-giver education for educational model, and performance skill training for acquisitional model. Measurements used in the initial evaluation are JSI-R, DDST-2, Social Maturity Test, KPPS-R, and observation-based performance task analysis. For the performance task analysis, performance skill items were constructed based on the Occupational Therapy Process Framework (OTPF), and those were assessed by the evaluation system of Assessment of Motor and Process Skill (AMPS) and Evaluation of Social Participation (ESI). Results : The detail process of implementing of the OTIPM in this study is reported by following four phases; 1) establish client-centered performance context; 2) establish baseline and interpret cause (initial evaluation); 3) intervention planning and implementing; and 4) recognize intervention outcome (reevaluation). Conclusion : In this case, occupational therapist could provide the client an occupation-based intervention within comprehensive performance context based on the OTIPM. Therapist could clearly identify the cause of problematic performance skills and behaviors and so provide effective intervention to improve client's occupational performance. Additionally, it was found that client's satisfaction of the intervention can be raised when the concept of 'who is the client' is expanded based on the OTIPM. From this study, it is proposed that OTIPM may be a model educible 'comprehensive' enhancement of 'specific' occupational engagement, as it considers both improvement of occupational performance and satisfaction.

Objective : In this study, we conducted a questionnaire survey of occupational therapists to examine their perceptions on and willingness to provide telerehabilitation dementia prevention education. Methods : From March 13 to 19, 2021, a questionnaire survey targeting occupational therapists in Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam was conducted. 100 questionnaires were distributed but only 70 were collected. The collected data were subjected to frequency analysis and descriptive statistics using the statistical program SPSS version 23.0. Results : The average scores by region were as follows. The average compatibility score was highest at 3.92 score, intention to providing education, doctors 3.89 score, community-centric rehabilitation awareness 3.81 score, cost saving 3.78 score, perceiver usefulness 3.75 score, accessibility 3.62 score, the quality of telerehabilitation service was in order of 3.49 score. Conclusion : All items asking whether occupational therapists participate in community-centered rehabilitation and non-face-to-face dementia prevention education programs showed high scores, indicating the willingness to participate actively. In the future, in addition to follow-up research on the implementation of telerehabilitation dementia prevention education, measures for improving accessibility within the local and national government should be discussed.

Objective: The purpose of this study was conducted to systematic review about assessment tools for Activities of Daily Living (ADL) for stroke patients. Methods: Studies tools was administered by using four electronic databases (Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane and NDSL). For the main key words,"stroke AND activities of daily living AND occupational therapy AND assessment OR evaluation OR measurement"was used. We analyzed the types and frequency of evaluation tools. In addition, the evaluation tools for activities and participation were classified based on the classification criteria of International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). Results: In this study, 111 studies were analyzed and 30 assessment tools were identified. As the number of studies on stroke patients has been increased recently, the types and frequency of evaluation tools have been also increased. The most commonly used evaluation tools were Functional Independence Measure (FIM), Barthel Index (BI) and Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). In addition, according to classification based on ICF, we found that the types of assessment tools which assess participation were few. Conclusion: Although there were many kinds of assessment tools, the types of evaluation tools which were used in the research or field were very limited. Using various assessment tools, more research should be conducted to support evidence-based occupational therapy. Evaluation tools for participation also should be developed.
