Clinical Reasoning

Designed for students and occupational therapists at all levels, this text examines the nature of clinical reasoning in therapeutic practice. It includes transcripts of interviews with therapists from The Clinical Reasoning Study sponsored by the American Occupational Therapy Association and the American Occupational Therapy Foundation, and illustrates abstract concepts using 25 clinical stories written by practising therapists. An appendix of stories that can be used for further analysis and classroom discussion is also included. (Bookdata)
