Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate the self-assessment of clinical reasoning for occupationaltherapists in Korea
Methods: This study was a cross-sectional survey study and targeted 143 occupational therapists nationwide. Thequestionnaire was composed of general characteristics and whether clinical reasoning was applied. In addition, aSelf-Assessment of Clinical Reflection and Reasoning (SACRR) was conducted. SACRR went through the processof translation, reverse translation, and content validity verification. The survey period was from January toFebruary 2019, and a data analysis was conducted using SPSS 20.0 for descriptive statistics.
Results: A total of 39.2% of the respondents said they used a clinical inference, and 20.3% said they did not useclinical reasoning. The reason for not using clinical reasoning was because the respondent did not know how to doso, a time constraint, and lack of knowledge. As a result of the SACRR, it was found that occupational therapistsvalue the perspectives of the client¡¯s family and colleagues, and the experience as a therapist, and found it difficultto find and apply different theories.
Conclusion: Education for reinforcing clinical reasoning of occupational therapists should be provided, and thecreation of a clinical environment that considers the application of clinical reasoning is important.
