 | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Hey peeps! #otalk |
 | #OTalk @OTalk_ Welcome to August's #OTalk Research. Tonight our host is @chloe_kitto Motivated to ensure her research keeps an occupation focus, @chloe_kitto will be asking us to discuss our thoughts and opinions on this important topic |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Welcome to everyone who is able to join us this evening. Say hello and let us know where you are tweeting from this evening #Otalk https://t.co/thDgEvNp8T |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Thanks @chloe_kitto for suggesting this great topic and hosting #Otalk tonight. Looking forward to your first question |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @chloe_kitto @OTalk_ Your topic seems interesting- and I know this should have global applications, too... and your discussion should also apply to occupational therapy assistants who are also qualified professionals in some countries- like USA. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 1 from @chloe_kitto |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Any thoughts on our first question this evening? |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @chloe_kitto My definition will be- research on interventions that utilize occupations in OT practice. The use of occupations can vary from client to client, as well as the therapy practitioners who are facilitating such interventions. #otalk |
 | OTMargaret @margaret_ot @OTalk_ Hi, I am lurking from Dartford, #OTalk I'm passionate about our Occupation based work, we deal with daily life skills and need to keep this focus. Article mentions other professions upskilling in many areas, and we need to be aware and work hard to demonstrate our unique skills. |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ any thoughts on how we could define this? |

| OTMargaret @margaret_ot @OTalk_ #OTalk Q1 Occupation-Based research, I think, is any data gleaned from our assessments and treatments that relate to every day life skills that help improve, teach or adapt to enhance life or improve independence for our service user/patient / families. |

 | Alex Smith @YmchwilStroc @BillWongOT @chloe_kitto I was also thinking occupation-based ‘interventions’ too but where does occupation end at both the lower level (bodily functions that facilitate occupations) and the higher level (social participation etc.) #OTalk |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ Some great points raised and debates starting already from question 1. I think question 2 will carry that on. What is NOT occupation-based research? #Otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Thank you for sharing #Otalk |
| Alex Smith @YmchwilStroc @rosewilkOT @OTalk_ Great suggestion @rosewilkOT, a very good article! 👉 https://t.co/igvS8VefYf #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @rosewilkOT: @OTalk_ A Fisher wrote an excellent article called ‘Occupation-centred, Occupation-based, Occupation-focused: |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ Here's the link to article mentioned earlier. Add it to your reading list #Otalk Thanks @YmchwilStroc |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @chloe_kitto: |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ How can we ensure occupation is explicit in our research and evidence base? #Otalk |
 | Suzann Campbell @infantmotortest RT @rosewilkOT: @OTalk_ A Fisher wrote an excellent article called ‘Occupation-centred, Occupation-based, Occupation-focused: |
 | Debra Jeffery 🌈 @Debbiejanej @chloe_kitto #OTalk I agree @Louisepenny87 I guess research that is not primarily about occupation is not occupation based research?? |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTalk_ Maybe we can include it in the article titles? #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Time for question #Otalk |

| Debra Jeffery 🌈 @Debbiejanej RT @chloe_kitto: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @chloe_kitto Hmmm... we don't want our research article titles to be super long! #otalk https://t.co/tVYj0AwR2y |
| Alex Smith @YmchwilStroc @chloe_kitto Occupation is complex and multifaceted. This presents unique challenges for research but there have been huge strides forward in methods to develop & evaluate complex and messy interventions so we shouldn’t shy away from applying them to occupation-based research #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @chloe_kitto But humor aside, I think we need to do a good job distinguishing what we do is occupation based and why we set ourselves apart from different disciplines. #otalk |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @chloe_kitto: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @YmchwilStroc @chloe_kitto Yes- and in some languages, it is hard to find an exact word that means occupations. I think we also need to overcome such challenges so that we can produce high quality research that can apply globally. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @chloe_kitto: |
| Alex Smith @YmchwilStroc @chloe_kitto I was thinking the recent @theRCOT guidance on complex interventions https://t.co/Ypm9SQUlsa and the @The_MRC Complex Intervention guidelines https://t.co/obFjYcD4KL but also for quali types methods such as phenomenological analysis #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @chloe_kitto @colourful_ot I think this depends. We also need our clinicians' help. So, institutions should partner up with clinicians on this matter. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @chloe_kitto Yes- especially in this day and age with governments and policy makers need evidence to justify why we are needed in all the settings we claim we have abilities to be involved in. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @chloe_kitto and if we don't showcase our values (particularly in money saved), it will be hard for decision makers to justify why we are a needed service. #otalk |

| Alex Smith @YmchwilStroc @DrWMB @chloe_kitto @POPPED_Project Mixed methods approaches are really useful in this area, the hardest thing is ensuring that both methodologies are treated equally and some form of triangulation happens between the quali & quant findings #OTalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @east_ot @chloe_kitto I think we need to break down the how's for every one of us in contributing in big and small ways. #otalk |
| Debra Jeffery 🌈 @Debbiejanej RT @rosewilkOT: |
| Alex Smith @YmchwilStroc @rosewilkOT @BillWongOT @chloe_kitto Although don’t underestimate the place of those who participate in occupation-based interventions, their voice is so important. It’s often they who notice and value the difference between an approach that isn’t occupation-based and one that is #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @chloe_kitto I hate to use the TED word again. But, it can be awesome if some of us can go up to that stage and share our effectiveness. I don't think an OT practitioner have made TEDMed yet. Somebody can be the first! #otalk |
| Alex Smith @YmchwilStroc @chloe_kitto Show it works! 😆 #OTalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @YmchwilStroc @rosewilkOT @chloe_kitto Although it is surprising that there aren't too many OT #autism researchers knocking on my door! (I am crossing my fingers that I can help with Australians with theirs, though.) #otalk |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ Just a few minutes left to discuss our last question. An important one and very relevant to @RCOT current research priorities agenda #Otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @Keirwales: |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ hard to believe that is our hour up. An very interesting chat tonight, lots of food for thought. Make sure to search #Otalk Lots of chats going on which you may have missed. Keep your eye out for the transcript later this week |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Thank you to our host @chloe_kitto I'm sure you'll agree she did a great job and got us all thinking about this very important issue. @NikkiDanielsOT signing off the #Otalk account |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Please do keep sharing your thoughts with @chloe_kitto #Otalk |
| Alex Smith @YmchwilStroc @OTalk_ @chloe_kitto @NikkiDanielsOT Huge thanks to @chloe_kitto for hosting tonight’s @OTalk_ lots for us all to consider in relation to occupation, which is at the core of our practice and professional identity #OTalk |
