This cost-benefit study of Level II (professional-level) fieldwork included 180 student-supervisor pairs from 12 occupational therapy educational programs. Costs and benefits were measured in time (valued at market rates) spent by students in patient treatment and by supervisors in fieldwork-related duties. Various factors were also evaluated to determine their relationship to overall cost or benefit. Results indicated a mean benefit of $4,700 for 12-week placements. Costs generated in the first few weeks of placement were generally recovered by the 6th week, with benefits gradually increasing, then declining slightly through the end of the fieldwork. Greater economic benefits resulted from physical dysfunction and psychiatric placements than from pediatric placements, and with second and third student experiences as compared with first experiences.
这项针对二级（专业水平）实习的成本效益研究涵盖了来自12个职业治疗教育项目的180对学生-督导组合。成本和效益以学生在患者治疗中花费的时间（按市场费率估值）以及督导在与实习相关职责中花费的时间来衡量。还评估了各种因素，以确定它们与总体成本或效益的关系。结果表明，为期12周的实习平均效益为4700美元。实习前几周产生的成本通常在第6周收回，效益逐渐增加，然后在实习结束时略有下降。身体功能障碍和精神科实习产生的经济效益高于儿科实习，且与第一次实习相比，第二次和第三次学生实习产生的经济效益更大。
