To determine clients' capacity for community living, occupational therapists must use measures that capture the person-task-environment transaction and compare clients' task performance to a performance standard. The Performance Assessment of Self-care Skills, a performance-based, criterion-referenced, observational tool, fulfills this purpose. In this practice analysis, using data from this tool from multiple clinical studies (N = 941), the authors describe tasks that clients from various diagnostic populations could and could not perform independently and safely. For clinicians, the Performance Assessment of Self-care Skills can be used to identify which daily tasks are compromised and the point of task breakdown, as well as to provide guidance about potential interventions.
为了确定客户的社区生活能力，职业治疗师必须采用能够捕捉人-任务-环境相互作用的测量方法，并将客户的任务表现与表现标准进行比较。自我护理技能表现评估是一种基于表现、参照标准的观察工具，可实现这一目的。在本实践分析中，作者利用来自多项临床研究（N = 941）的该工具数据，描述了不同诊断群体的客户能够和不能独立安全完成的任务。对于临床医生而言，自我护理技能表现评估可用于确定哪些日常任务受到影响以及任务中断点，还可为潜在干预措施提供指导。
