AB - Purpose : The aims of the present study were to investigate the job characteristics and priorities of job tasks for Korean occupational therapists, and to offer appropriate ratios for test items of the national licensing examination based on a practice analysis.
Methods : A survey was conducted for four months beginning in December 2008, and consisted of two domains: job characteristics (clinical training, work settings, population of patients), and a practice analysis (importance and frequency of tasks). Questionnaires were mailed to 430 occupational therapists registered as members of the Korean Association of Occupational Therapists. A total of 359 responses were returned,but 14 responses had missing data and were excluded in the statistical analysis.
Results : The results of the study revealed that most occupational therapists were trained in university hospitals, where the major populations were patients with physical disabilities. According to the survey, most occupational therapists were working at rehabilitation hospitals and their main diagnoses were for patients with neurological disorders. The order of importance for four domains was "professional standards and responsibilities," "interventions," "evaluation," and "treatment plan." The importance weights were "evaluation"(12.2%), "treatment plan" (24.7%), "interventions" (33.6%), and "professional standards and responsibilities" (29.6%), respectively.
Conclusion : The results of the study will contribute toward providing a basis for establishing a model of Korean occupational therapy practice and to supply basic data that can be utilized for offering direction in occupational therapy education as well as the national licensing examination.
