1. Pose the Problems That Patients Learn to Solve
Intentional manipulation of tasks and environments is used to pose the very problems the patient must learn to solve. This chapter reinforces the shift in clinical practice away from the prescription of externally defined ‘ideal’ movement solutions toward the intentional creation of targeted challenges that offer problem-solving practice.
2. Task-Oriented Examination
This chapter presents the ‘task-oriented examination,’ in which the individual’s motor performance is evaluated within the context of performing meaningful tasks in real-world environments.
3. Task-Oriented Approach to Intervention
This chapter presents the ‘task-oriented approach to intervention,’ in which the individual participates in the selection and choice of meaningful tasks and is offered targeted task challenges in real-world environments that are adapted to maintain challenge as the patient improves.
