The perception of OBP showed a mean valueof 5.21, whereas occupational understanding and knowledge resulted in a mean score of 4.98. The frequency ofapplication of OBP showed a mean value of 2.68 out of 10 each day. Assessment tools often used to implementOBP include interviews, clinical observations, and the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM).
