Summary

This study aims to investigate psychiatric clients' understanding of occupational therapy (OT), the reasonableness of their expectations regarding OT services, and OT interns' performance in Occupational Therapy Knowledge (OTK) health education and chief complaint/expectation interviews. The project includes developing assessment instruments for client OT knowledge, expectation reasonableness, and intern communication/education performance, followed by data collection in real clinical settings. Clients, clinical supervisors, and external experts will contribute ratings to evaluate instrument validity and reliability.
