Although the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) is used with children, it is unclear how they and their parents experience this. This study aims to investigate the opinions of children and their parents about the COPM when it is used with children.
Semi-structured interviews were performed with 23 children varying in age between 8 and 18 years. The transcripts of the interviews were analysed using MAXQDA software to discover overarching themes. Parents' responses to an eight-item multiple-choice questionnaire were analysed using SPSS software.
Five themes extracted from the interviews with the children show: My way of doing the COPM; The COPM shows my own problems and wishes for change; The COPM is important for identifying the support I need; The influence of my parents and my therapist; and The COPM is suitable for me. The children experienced the COPM as a valuable tool for determining and measuring the impact of an intervention. The parents experienced the COPM as suitable for their child and judged that the child's scores were useful for showing the outcome of an intervention.
Both the children and their parents valued the COPM as an outcome measure for intervention.
虽然加拿大职业表现测量(COPM)被用于儿童,但尚不清楚他们及其父母对此的体验。本研究旨在调查儿童及其父母对 COPM 在儿童中的使用的看法。
对年龄在 8 至 18 岁之间的 23 名儿童进行了半结构化访谈。使用 MAXQDA 软件分析访谈记录,以发现总体主题。使用 SPSS 软件分析父母对 8 项多项选择问卷的回答。
从对儿童的访谈中提取了五个主题:我做 COPM 的方式;COPM 显示了我自己的问题和改变的愿望;COPM 对识别我需要的支持很重要;父母和治疗师的影响;以及 COPM 适合我。儿童将 COPM 视为确定和衡量干预影响的有价值工具。父母认为 COPM 适合他们的孩子,并认为孩子的分数有助于显示干预的结果。
儿童及其父母都将 COPM 视为干预的结果衡量标准。
