The philosophy of occupational therapy, occupational science, and ideology: a proposed relationship
Abstract
This paper explores the interaction between the philosophy of occupational therapy, occupational science, and the regional ideology of a specific area and proposes two models to depict the relationship.
One model focuses on the interaction between daily occupational therapy practice in a specific region and the international influences on that practice. The international influences include the effect of occupational science.
The second model focuses on the relationship between the philosophy of occupational therapy, occupational science, and the regional ideology. It concludes illustrating the irnportance of developing a global identity through the importation of knowledge from evolving sciences in industrialized countries at the same time as basic and applied knowledge is developed within the scientific community of a region.
