Occhat

#occhat Transcript – Focus on Models – PEO/PEOP – 2nd July 2013

Thank you @Gerbil10 for facilitating last night’s #occhat on the PEO/PEOP Models – the first in our models series.

Unfortunately, GrabChat’s having some technical problems that’s limiting our ability to post full transcripts of the chats. So we’ve used the transcript captured by Symplur instead:

#occhat I think the models are simple to understand because you are considering the person, environment and occupation. The complexity is…

@maggie_c2 thanks for joining us tonight 🙂 glad you found the prezis useful – thought @gerbil10 did a great job with the blog post! #occhat

kilner100
@OTtwehytweets very useful to have PEO in back on mind on recent role emerging placement #occhat

gerbil10
Thank you@gerbil10 did a great job with the blog post! #occhat

BillWongOT
@clissa89 @OTtwehytweets @gerbil10 O is self explanatory… since the occupation is to be a competent occupational therapist. #occhat

GillyGorry
@gerbil10 it is a pilot and no model in there at the mo! so starting from scratch! #occhat

Dutch research told me PEO is more of a guide line instead of a model. That is how I use it. #occhat

clissa89
@DoBeDoBeDo14 what good timing for an #occhat series on models 🙂 hope you wlil find them useful & help apply to practice

Helen_otuk
@GillyGorry thinking PEO PEOP could be a good fit. Fits well in social care environments. #Occhat

OTtwehytweets
@kilner100 yes I agree 🙂 but I need to research it a bit more I think to get the models full use #Occhat

GillyGorry
@Helen_otuk yes… just thinking that.. #braincogsareturning… #occhat

francescaabrown
For my placement with social services, our initial assessments were based on the PEOP model #occhat

OTtwehytweets
@gerbil10 @clissa89 @BillWongOT I have never used the PEOP model is it much different than the PEO#Occhat #noviceOT

OTalk_Occhat
@francescaabrown can you tell us a bit more about how the assessment was informed by the model? what did it look like? #occhat

GillyGorry
@OTalk_Occhat hmmm almost looks like Kawa.. cross sections and longitudinal #occhat#dontforgetaboutthehashtag

@francescaabrown we also used it within A&E for a bit more structure in a busy unpredictable environment#occhat

@gerbil10 @eileenhegarty7 hmmm… need to do me some peo peop research #occhat

eileenhegarty7
@OTtwehytweets @clissa89 @gerbil10 @BillWongOT Must admit that I struggle to understand the performance section of PEOP. #occhat

francescaabrown
At the centre was the person + then their occupations (self-care, productivity, leisure) + then environment (+ how this (1/2) #occhat

Helen_otuk
RT @francescaabrown: Found it (PEO) a useful tool in social services to help ensure client-centered practice #occhat

francescaabrown
Impacted on their performance. It was helpful in ensuring holistic practice too #occhat

gerbil10
@clissa89 @OTtwehytweets @BillWongOT hope my explanation helped. They both have features I like#occhat

OTtwehytweets
@clissa89 @gerbil10 @BillWongOT will definitely b using this #occhat 2set a new goal 2research & read links on blog just did not have time

clissa89
@gerbil10 @OTtwehytweets @BillWongOT yes they were helpful thanks – need to revisit as didnt have time to read properly today #occhat

gerbil10
@clissa89 @OTtwehytweets @BillWongOT I like PEO because I think it demonstrates the transaction between the P E and O #Occhat

Helen_otuk
@CarmenNQ_OT @francescaabrown that sounds great, would love to hear more! #Occhat

francescaabrown
*as it prompted the OT to consider every aspect of the person, + considered leisure occupations as well as self-care/productivity#occhat

OTtwehytweets
@gerbil10 @clissa89 yes I agree When I did use it on my paeds clients it definitely demonstrated the relationship with the P. E & O #Occhat

gerbil10
#occhat second question of the night. What are the challenges for the OT in analysing the transaction between the P E O?

maggie_c2
@OTalk_Occhat in terms of 2nd blog question-challenge of resources exp opportunity to assess in different environments vs. jst clinic#occhat

CarmenNQ_OT
@clissa89 @sophiewearing i find it clear and easy to work with throughout my degree. ensure holistic care + good for presentations #occhat

OTtwehytweets
@gerbil10 @clissa89 @eileenhegarty7 must make more time to read references just did not have time to go through before 2nights #Occhat

sophiewearing
@clissa89 A problem we found, is that we wanted definitive outcome measurability (economic climate)-which COPM&others can provide #Occhat

BillWongOT
@OTtwehytweets @gerbil10 @clissa89 One thing that would be helpful- try to analyze people around you.#occhat

clissa89
@sophiewearing would you mind tweeting again with the #occhat hashtag so everyone can see your tweet?

eileenhegarty7
@gerbil10 Can be a challenge to choose long-term option when resources are tight 2/2 #occhat

sophiewearing
@CarmenNQ_OT @clissa89 Agree,students especially find it useful, it is a very “approachable” model.#Occhat

OTtwehytweets
RT @Helen_otuk@gerbil10 challenge = weighting the importance / meaning for the individual of the P E or O #Occhat

BillWongOT
@gerbil10 @OTtwehytweets @clissa89 @eileenhegarty7 Same goes w/ my OTD in US. Leave door open for teaching later. #occhat

eileenhegarty7
@kilner100 I find that much easier to conceptualise and to see that changing over time #occhat

francescaabrown
@sophiewearing asa student on my first placement it was a great introduction in to using models but I agree that it lacked the depth #Occhat

sophiewearing
@francescaabrown Towards a different model for outcome measures or outcome measures generally?#Occhat

BoothRach
@BoothRach@clissa89 good question, has other models developed further? Did it go out of fashion like the use of activities? #Occhat

OTtwehytweets
@gerbil10 @clissa89 and when I say I learned I was asked to pick a model to guide my intervention & used PEO so researched myself #Occhat

Sasa_Radic
I can completly understand importance of E as coming from country in which CBR and acess to P life is restricted in a way #Occhat

clissa89
@sophiewearing think when I saw the picture as a student I thought “yup, got that” and didnt look further#confessions #Occhat

sophiewearing
@clissa89 But I see that as a good thing!Why should we struggle with ones that dont neccesarily click with our own learning/setting? #Occhat

OTtwehytweets
@gerbil10 @clissa89 I wud have preferred 2 have had guidance on appropriate references 2guide my practice #Occhat

gerbil10
1/2 #occhat @eileenhegarty7 what I like about these models is that E includes the local policies and criteria that impacts on intervention

sophiewearing
@clissa89 Having said that,sometimes a new model brings up interesting points never thought of in that setting #Occhat

Sasa_Radic
@clissa89 #occhat CBR =community based rehabilitation

@Helen_otuk @francescaabrown models have gaps though, there are few that really do cover everything for your setting #Occhat

BillWongOT
@clissa89 E is really important. Learned it the hard way in the placement that I flunked. #occhat

gerbil10
@clissa89 the thing I love about the transactional analysis of P E O is that it is often hard to know which is influence which #occhat

BillWongOT
@clissa89 I know from my personal experience, E can be a crucial factor for me to succeed in occupations or not. #occhat

BillWongOT
@clissa89 just take #otalk and #occhat for example- you guys are friendly. Hence, I can do the occupation of contributing well. 🙂 #occhat

Sasa_Radic
@sophiewearing what models do you think cover most areas? @Helen_otuk @francescaabrown #Occhat

Helen_otuk
@maggie_c2 @clissa89 but helpful to put the individual and support at the heart of what we do? #Occhat

GillyGorry
RT @Sasa_Radic@sophiewearing what models do you think cover most areas? @Helen_otuk@francescaabrown #Occhat

gerbil10
Last question for #occhat. Regarding E what social and economic policies influence the interventions you provide.

BillWongOT
@kilner100 @gerbil10 @eileenhegarty7 another 1 I think about is accessibility w/ “E”. E can be a barrier for some1 in participation. #occhat

OTtwehytweets
@kilner100 @gerbil10 @eileenhegarty7 “e” was one of the most important on community paeds placement. School/home environment #Occhat

Sasa_Radic
Thing whith the E is that you can do you best with P and O but if E is not facilitating there is no long term progress #Occhat

gerbil10
@BillWongOT @kilner100 @eileenhegarty7 so true #occhat

CarmenNQ_OT
@clissa89 its amazing how different OT programmes are just within the UK let alone worldwide!! #occhat

sophiewearing
@Sasa_Radic @Helen_otuk @francescaabrown That depends on lots of aspects&factors!In my opinion,depends on setting/client group/needs #Occhat

OTtwehytweets
@francescaabrown @Helen_otuk I totally agree much focus is entirely on MOHO & COPM #Occhat with other models “just about” mentioned

francescaabrown
At uni, PEO models are rarely discussed. There is a big emphasis on MOHO + COPM which I think can lessen the value #occhat

@OTalk_Occhat true! I consider a model something you can do wrong and a guideline something you just do. #Occhat

gerbil10
@gerbil10 for me the PEO and PEOP provide me with away of incorporating these two hats into one#Occhat

OTtwehytweets
@OTalk_Occhat my take away message is to make the time to read through @gerbil10 references in blog & set more goals to research:) #Occhat

Sasa_Radic
@OTalk_Occhat That maybe we would need to have more #Occhat about models and their aplications in practice

Leadership #OTalk with @ElaineAHPMH

#OTalk was held on the 28th May and we were excited to welcome @ElaineAHPMH as our guest host. Elaine wanted to reach out into our community, and think collectively about leadership and how social media might provide leadership opportunties for OTs. Elaine is delivering this years’ Casson Memorial Lecture on this topic, at the #COT13 Conference in Glasgow on 18th-20th June.

The Leadership #OTalk Chat

It was a fast and furious chat! It was wonderful to see so may ‘new faces’ as people bravely joined in the chat for the first time: each new member of our community was a great example of leadership in social media, as were all the people who were watching the chat but don’t yet feel able to join in. We’re looking forward to meeting you, when you’re ready!

Please see this link to the Symplur transcript.

The Highlights

There were many wise and wonderful contributions; funny, thoughtful, authoritative, cheeky: we felt every style of social media communication was expressed during the chat. It is very difficult to select individual highlights, and it is a very personal selection, but here are some of what ClaireOT thought were the ‘best bits’

The Impact of our #OTalk Tweetchat

This chat may be the busiest chat we’ve had, with the most impact yet. We made over a million impressions, from just 73 active participants. We may estimate from that number of participants that a total audience of 400-800 OTs, AHPs and others were listening and participating in the chat, which is an incredible number and speaks volumes about the need for our community to have this space to think about leadership in social media, and other topics of interest.

#occhat Grabchat – Boredom (7th May 2013)

Thank you to everyone who participated in last night’s (un-boring) chat!

I’d like to add a quote that someone posted in the ‘Mindfulness’ Facebook group in response to my blog post:

 

The Other Side of Boredom

When you are really bored, the best thing you can do is sit down and let yourself experience the boredom more fully. It may not be a deep or satisfying state, but at least you are not indulging in the things with which you usually cover up this kind of experience. Your real state of mind is more nakedly exposed, because for the time being there are no distractions. If you can stay with the experience of boredom, you can try to feel your way through into something deeper, truer, and more spontaneous within yourself.

– Sangharakshita, “Staying with Boredom”

 

Remember to document your participation in this chat as evidence of continuing professional development (check out our OTalk/Occhat and your CPD page), and please share any further thoughts/reflections in the comments below.

@clissa89 My glamorous assistant for the night is @kirstyes – thank you in advance!!! #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:01:15 +0100)
@BillWongOT @clissa89 that end of party is probably as anti-thesis for today’s topic. 🙂 #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:01:31 +0100)
@CharOTReilly @clissa89 hii! #otuesday so far so good, final VIVAs issued today so been working on that today. Hows your day? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:01:56 +0100)

@clissa89 Out of curiosity… has anyone here never experienced boredom? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:04:06 +0100)
@CharOTReilly @clissa89 well hope #occhat will improve your day. #cyberhugs I have a gentleman, 43 he loves saxophone & kyaking, has RA & depression(Tue, 07 May 2013 20:04:33 +0100)
@BillWongOT @clissa89 Bored a lot of times- too much time in solitude in my liking. 😦 #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:05:18 +0100)
@clissa89 For those of you who have experienced boredom – what has your experience been like? When was the last time you felt bored? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:05:47 +0100)
@OTalk_Occhat RT @clissa89 : Out of curiosity… has anyone here never experienced boredom? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:06:02 +0100)
@clissa89 @BillWongOT so you are more likely to feel bored if you are alone? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:06:54 +0100)
@clissa89 @CharOTReilly thank you 🙂 that sounds like a really interesting case study! #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:07:07 +0100)
@robbrooks_uk Very rarely bored, too much to do! When I am bored I think I feel frustrated.
#occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:07:07 +0100)
@BPDFFS @clissa89 yes all the time #occhat it’s a bad place to be for me, I need to keep busy to distract(Tue, 07 May 2013 20:07:08 +0100)
@CharOTReilly @clissa89 bored in traffic on my way home from the library this afternoon #veryboring , #lackofstimulation #lackofmeaningfulness #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:07:18 +0100)
@pd2ot Hello #occhat -ers, sorry I’m late – I was at a lovely BBQ :-)(Tue, 07 May 2013 20:07:28 +0100)
@BillWongOT @clissa89 yes… because there were times I wish I have a girlfriend in my life. It’d have been more fulfilling #lifeasasingleguy #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:07:45 +0100)
@kirstyes #occhat I’m not entirely sure what boredom is but yet I’ve said I feel bored. Usually means I have too much to do but don’t want doany of it(Tue, 07 May 2013 20:07:55 +0100)
@clissa89 @BPDFFS what kinds of situations do you feel bored in? I do that too – keep busy! #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:08:04 +0100)

@Helen_otuk @clissa89 @BillWongOT I do not think I have every experienced boredom when alone. Possibly when doing tedious task? But not sure??? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:08:13 +0100)
@clissa89 @pd2ot we’re honoured that you came in for us! 🙂 glad you had a nice BBQ. What situations do you feel bored in? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:08:31 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Helen_otuk @clissa89 I wonder if you have experienced a boring lecturer in your uni days? That also counts, right? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:08:53 +0100)
@CharOTReilly RT @kirstyes : #occhat I’m not entirely sure what boredom is but yet I’ve said I feel bored. Usually means I have too much to do but don’t want doany of it(Tue, 07 May 2013 20:09:16 +0100)
@clissa89 @robbrooks_uk I’m the same – often too busy to feel bored! But definitely makes me frustrated when I am #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:09:16 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy @robbrooks_uk #occhat similar but when I’m bored I think I’m more likely overwhelmed then I can’t be bothered to engage.(Tue, 07 May 2013 20:09:33 +0100)
@robbrooks_uk I get bored when doing house work – not stimulating enough. #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:09:45 +0100)
@clissa89 @kirstyes someone mentioned this to me earlier – thought that boredom was maybe around some sort of avoidance? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:09:47 +0100)
@pd2ot @clissa89 for me I get bored within occupations that don’t challenge me enough. While I always keep busy I still get bored… #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:10:25 +0100)
@clissa89 @BillWongOT @helen_otuk oh yes! (sorry lecturers) my most common boredom-inducing situation: lectures etc where I can’t leave #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:10:25 +0100)
@darthknitty #occhat I’ve been bored recently as stuck in bed with a bad back. Couldn’t sit up to knit 😦 @clissa89 (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:10:29 +0100)
@BillWongOT When I have a boring lecturer, I sometimes will go online and multi-task. #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:10:39 +0100)
@kirstyes @clissa89 Yes, maybe, often accompanied by guilt #occhat -Need to just do what I want in those situations.(Tue, 07 May 2013 20:10:59 +0100)
@Helen_otuk ok, how do we define boredom? I can get bored of doing a specific tedious task… but I then tend to utilise time to ponder stuff #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:11:03 +0100)
@clissa89 @Nnikki_Duffy can you expand on the overwhelmed point? what makes you overwhelmed? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:11:05 +0100)
@CharOTReilly @robbrooks_uk i agree, seems to be a link between #boredom and #lackofstimulation #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:11:09 +0100)
@pd2ot @clissa89 I got bored during 1st year at uni. I’m now bored with salsa. It’s a bit exhausting always having to keep the interest up! #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:11:13 +0100)
@BillWongOT @clissa89 @kirstyes that will be the case if I find a uni topic disengaging. #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:11:18 +0100)
@BPDFFS @clissa89 lots of situations like today in a meeting I lose interest very quickly, I need constant mental stimulation or I get bored #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:11:43 +0100)
@clissa89 @darthknitty that must have been awful 😦 I get bored too when ill/resting!! #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:11:59 +0100)
@pd2ot @BPDFFS can definitely relate to that #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:12:28 +0100)
@clissa89 @BillWongOT I admit I did this too 😦 I withdraw if I’m bored – sometimes into a task or sometimes somewhere in my head #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:12:32 +0100)
@BillWongOT @clissa89 @Helen_otuk As now being on “the other side of the fence” as guest lecturer, if I don’t hear laughters, I know I’m boring. #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:12:35 +0100)
@kirstyes @Helen_otuk @clissa89 @BillWongOT Yes so etching about lack of challenge, or too much challenge? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:12:35 +0100)
@CharOTReilly @pd2ot @clissa89 keeping engaged for me, does require a lot of energy and interest, can be challenging #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:12:46 +0100)
@clissa89 @pd2ot do you get bored after a period of time elapses and then need a change? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:13:07 +0100)
@robbrooks_uk Is boredom a form of occupational deprivation? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:13:32 +0100)
@clissa89 @BPDFFS oh yes meetings….. Yawn!! 😦 #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:13:32 +0100)
@BillWongOT @clissa89 yes… actually that’s why I made some tweets in my OTD classes this year (honestly admitting the truth). #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:13:36 +0100)
@sophiewearing I tend to find I’m bored when I’m under stimulated,if something isn’t pitched at the right level,or its the wrong activity @clissa89 #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:14:07 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy @clissa89 #occhat to much stuff to do, then I can shut down a little.(Tue, 07 May 2013 20:14:08 +0100)
@clissa89 @robbrooks_uk well that’s a whole debate in itself! what do you think? (and everyone else?) #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:14:12 +0100)
@GillyGorry @clissa89 yes.. Mainly due to feeling restricted by other things and having nothing to do. Not for a long time though #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:14:35 +0100)
@clissa89 I felt really guilty in lectures – and sorry for lecturers – when I disengaged from the session #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:14:49 +0100)
@pd2ot @CharOTReilly yep, I s’times find mindfulness helps me tolerate the lower energy/interest stuff -possibly could invest more in that #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:14:50 +0100)
@Helen_otuk @kirstyes yes think so, I can get bored of a task but if I utilise time to ponder or think things through then not bored? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:14:50 +0100)
@OTalk_Occhat Good evening @michael_iwama , great to have you at #occhat @clissa89 (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:14:51 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy @clissa89 #occhat I think the word ‘boredom’ can be interpreted different depending on ur experience of it.(Tue, 07 May 2013 20:14:59 +0100)
@BillWongOT @CharOTReilly @pd2ot @clissa89 But that’s why I LOVE being able to tweet as I attend OT conferences nowadays- less boredom! #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:15:06 +0100)
@claireOT Hello #occhat ! Just turning up to say that I find recovery/existence with chronic illness can be boring… #sensorysensitivity (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:15:08 +0100)

@sophiewearing So when barriers get in the way of engagement? @darthknitty @clissa89 #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:15:24 +0100)
@clissa89 @Nnikki_Duffy I agree – we probably have different experiences and definitions of boredom! #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:15:36 +0100)
@robbrooks_uk @sophiewearing I agree that when the task demands do not meet my needs I can get bored #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:15:49 +0100)
@clissa89 @pd2ot I’m really interested in this idea – spotted in http://t.co/5BwctRcXxY #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:16:04 +0100)
@claireOT Not being able to read, or write, or even watch TV when I’m at my worst means it’s hard to relieve boredom #sensorysensitivity #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:16:06 +0100)
@pd2ot @BillWongOT @CharOTReilly @clissa89 #occhat Good point, I’ve yet to experience that. I’m fine with lectures I really enjoy though(Tue, 07 May 2013 20:16:10 +0100)
@BillWongOT @robbrooks_uk good question. I think in a sense it is. I don’t go out much cuz there r some sports that r boring when engaged alone. #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:16:24 +0100)
@clissa89 @pd2ot @CharOTreilly I’m often very un-mindful (and irritated!!) when bored 😦 need to work on this. #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:16:28 +0100)

@Keeper85 #occhat I usually look at boredom from a sensory needs perspective and try and adjust accordingly(Tue, 07 May 2013 20:17:23 +0100)
@BillWongOT @GillyGorry I sit at the back- that way people won’t notice as much. #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:17:26 +0100)

@GillyGorry @clissa89 physical. Time. Other commitments. Fear. Anxiety. I think lots of thinks have the ability to restrict #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:23:14 +0100)
@pd2ot @BillWongOT @clissa89 I think I need to ponder it more, too. Feels like quite a complicated process of fear/avoidance reaction #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:23:23 +0100)
@claireOT @AishaJemima yes, daydreaming, meditating and mindful breathing can be really helpful #occhat #sensorysensitivity (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:23:25 +0100)
@clissa89 @pd2ot can you elaborate on occupations that maintain boredom? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:23:45 +0100)
@BillWongOT just throwing a thought- I wonder since we’ve many “time killing devices”, are we more bored easily if we r not around them? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:23:46 +0100)

@claireOT @LeggeAngie thanks! I share feelings like that here because I’m a whole person: I know I don’t present that face to the world IRL #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:24:30 +0100)
@kirstyes I wonder if rather than being bored I am less likely to achieve flow?! #occhat or not being mindful or present in activities.(Tue, 07 May 2013 20:24:40 +0100)

@clissa89 Some of us are starting to talk about strategies to cope with/overcome boredom – what do you do? What works? Doesn’t? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:25:05 +0100)
@kirstyes @BillWongOT @clissa89 What is it do you think that is disengaging? #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:25:08 +0100)
@pd2ot @clissa89 sometimes I feel I have the option to make a change – and don’t. Perhaps I could increase interest/challenge #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:25:18 +0100)
@BillWongOT @clissa89 you can say that partly… since a lot of people carrying a smartphone, ipad, or similar stuff nowadays to kill time. #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:25:19 +0100)

@sophiewearing Agreed. When I can’t do anything to control or solve the boredom I get restless, irritated or switch off @clissa89 #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:25:43 +0100)

@pd2ot @clissa89 for me, maintaining engagement in ‘boring occupations’ feels self-defeating and I’ll choose to do that. Not always though #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:26:03 +0100)

@BillWongOT @CharOTReilly @clissa89 I think it could be a habit. I say that because nowadays I have my iPhone, I check my emails more frequently #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 20:29:53 +0100)
@Keeper85 #occhat I know it’s difficult for me to complete a purposeful activity that has not meaning for me. E.g. Moping :-s(Tue, 07 May 2013 20:30:03 +0100)

@Keeper85 @Nnikki_Duffy @GillyGorry @kirstyes @robbrooks_uk ur assuming meaning is a static concept #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 21:22:36 +0100)

@GillyGorry @Keeper85 @nnikki_duffy @kirstyes @robbrooks_uk I have been busy.. But still bored. Yes a deficit in something… Subjective though #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 21:56:11 +0100)
@GillyGorry @Keeper85 @nnikki_duffy @kirstyes deficit in doing something I want.. Doesn’t mean the things I do already don’t have meaning.. #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 21:58:10 +0100)
@robbrooks_uk @GillyGorry Busy but still bored would suggest a lack of meaning, monotony or skill/demand mismatch #occhAT (Tue, 07 May 2013 22:10:31 +0100)
@claireOT @charl885 oops, sorry! How to Twitter http://t.co/8OPSdIGLxR #occhat @michael_iwama (Tue, 07 May 2013 22:11:39 +0100)
@GillyGorry @robbrooks_uk yep.. That would be why I stopped being bored and trained as an OT lol #occhat (Tue, 07 May 2013 22:19:12 +0100)
@GillyGorry @Keeper85 @nnikki_duffy @kirstyes maybe. Or maybe just that my occupational choices were restricted #occhat choice carries huge meaning 4 me(Tue, 07 May 2013 22:21:11 +0100)

@BillWongOT @CMiller_OTs I am also a part of #OTalk / #Occhat (even though it’s based in UK). This week’s topic for #occhat is on boredom. Check it out.(Wed, 08 May 2013 00:07:47 +0100)
@Thoodles @clissa89 @kirstyes I’ve been bored even if i didn’t have things I needed to do, but could do. For me boredom reduced motivation. #occhat (Wed, 08 May 2013 01:22:12 +0100)
@Thoodles Boredom can lead to reduced motivation of doing things that I normally would enjoy doing. #occhat (Wed, 08 May 2013 01:23:11 +0100)
@Thoodles @clissa89 i usually try to get inspired or look for things that could get me going, even if it means procrastination. #occhat (Wed, 08 May 2013 01:24:34 +0100)
@BillWongOT RT @Thoodles : Boredom can lead to reduced motivation of doing things that I normally would enjoy doing. #occhat (Wed, 08 May 2013 01:25:22 +0100)
@Thoodles Would things like being tired lead to boredom, due to the reduced motivation to engage in occupation? #occhat (Wed, 08 May 2013 01:26:40 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Thoodles @clissa89 As a pianist, I sometimes I get motivated if I listen to a piano piece that represents a just right challenge. #occhat (Wed, 08 May 2013 01:27:17 +0100)
@Thoodles So maybe if you’re bored, take a nap. If you wake up feeling refreshed you can get back on task. #occhat (Wed, 08 May 2013 01:27:32 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Thoodles I brought up a question about burnout and boredom earlier. So, I think that can be a factor. #occhat (Wed, 08 May 2013 01:28:02 +0100)
@Thoodles @BillWongOT @clissa89 that is exactly what I’m talking about. #occhat (Wed, 08 May 2013 01:28:43 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Thoodles @clissa89 In learning such a piece (particularly complex ones), it’s more of a process than procrastination. #occhat (Wed, 08 May 2013 01:29:54 +0100)

@clissa89 #occhat MT @michael_iwama : “boredom” profound & culture- bound, tied to place,time& circumstance. Not merely absence of ‘meaningful’ ‘doing'(Wed, 08 May 2013 05:33:02 +0100)
@clissa89 #occhat MT @HScott71 : @michael_iwama @clissa89 Wonder whether social media culture affects children – bored by traditional play occupations?(Wed, 08 May 2013 05:35:20 +0100)
@claireOT @Symbolic_Life we’re so delighted, too! #otalk #occhat #leadership (Wed, 08 May 2013 09:24:28 +0100)
@clissa89 #occhat RT @DebLants : @claireOT @clissa89 i agree with this. When you’re bored you look into other things to keep you occupied(Wed, 08 May 2013 13:01:36 +0100)
@roberTO_OT Boredom to me is lack of productive doing. Big issue w/unemployed! Espec. in my research. Disability also plays a role – wanting2do! #Occhat (Wed, 08 May 2013 14:07:01 +0100)
@roberTO_OT @Keeper85 #Occhat Boredom doesn’t necessarily have to relate to occupation. Therefore, productivity as opposed to meaning is more salient(Wed, 08 May 2013 14:20:52 +0100)

@BillWongOT I think reading is a nice change of pace occupation. Used 2 b in a book club for a while before my doctorate degree stuff took over. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:05:08 +0100)
@BillWongOT I guess #occhat is like a ghost town today. :((Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:08:05 +0100)

@Nnikki_Duffy #occhat I think the use of kindles etc can be powerful tools to enable people to continue the occupation of reading.(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:31:11 +0100)
@orlalalalala @Nnikki_Duffy i love new book smell, but also old book smell! #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:31:46 +0100)

@BillWongOT @orlalalalala @Nnikki_Duffy I also like that you can zoom in- good for people with vision issues. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:33:48 +0100)

@Nnikki_Duffy @BillWongOT @dawnyford during my degree I stopped reading fiction cause I had 2 much reading 2 do. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:35:03 +0100)

@orlalalalala #occhat has anyone spoken to OT clients about reading or enabled a person to read?(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:35:12 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy @BillWongOT @dawnyford 1st thing I did when finishing was get lost in a book nothing OT / health related #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:36:10 +0100)

@Nnikki_Duffy @orlalalalala I have used the kindle as it was lighter and easier to grasp then a book #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:37:44 +0100)
@orlalalalala @Nnikki_Duffy @BillWongOT @dawnyford but it’s also difficult if you’re in a bit of a reading rut. I always ask for recommendations #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:38:25 +0100)
@BillWongOT @orlalalalala @Nnikki_Duffy @dawnyford that’s why I think a book club is not a bad idea. All my book club friends are non-OT’s. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:39:05 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy @orlalalalala #occhat however new technology can also be a barrier rather then an enabler.(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:39:14 +0100)
@BillWongOT @dawnyford @orlalalalala @Nnikki_Duffy I think there are some values of having a book. It provides meaning that u owned something #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:40:26 +0100)
@BillWongOT @dawnyford @orlalalalala @Nnikki_Duffy though I would say it wouldn’t be good to follow my grandpa’s footsteps, though… lol! #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:40:54 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy @orlalalalala yes- I bet neither my mom nor my dad would ever use Kindle #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:41:38 +0100)
@dawnyford @orlalalalala @nnikki_duffy @BillWongOT Kindles r cool & very handy but r they as therapeutic as holding a good book in your hands? #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:42:31 +0100)

@Nnikki_Duffy @orlalalalala I suppose we all do that now and again, read to relate / understand a persons journey, or gain insight. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:46:17 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy @orlalalalala I agree- I read a lot of autism self accounts for my own pleasure & my doctorate residency. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:48:35 +0100)

@eileenhegarty7 Hiya, just got in. @Nnikki_Duffy Reading is also good to escape into another world #occhat #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:49:59 +0100)
@BillWongOT @orlalalalala @Nnikki_Duffy A pretty popular #autism non-fiction book is Look Me In The Eye #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:50:20 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy I suppose as OTs we need to recognise that when some1 says reading is an interest what part of reading is meaningful to them #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:51:49 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy #occhat reading can be social, work, relaxation, emotional. So given that if a person puts reading as an interest what would u ask? #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:53:44 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy good question- probably will start off with his/her favorite books. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:54:46 +0100)
@eileenhegarty7 @Nnikki_Duffy Can they access the books they like? Would they like to have contact with others who like reading? #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:55:27 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy @BillWongOT yeah I would probably ask when they read. Times of stress etc. where they read, what do they love about reading? #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:56:33 +0100)
@BillWongOT @eileenhegarty7 @Nnikki_Duffy good one! I am thinking a site like http://t.co/HRLyTnlTG1 #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:57:24 +0100)
@orlalalalala @eileenhegarty7 @Nnikki_Duffy #occhat http://t.co/V4wdAlBqEd (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:57:32 +0100)
@dawnyford @BillWongOT @nnikki_duffy @orlalalalala obviously reading a lot of BJOT at the mo. helps with degree. Need some fiction 4 balance! #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:57:58 +0100)
@BillWongOT @dawnyford @Nnikki_Duffy @orlalalalala Same- I also read AJOT, Australian Occupational Therapy Journal, and other OT ones, too. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:59:03 +0100)
@eileenhegarty7 @BillWongOT Yes, I’m a Goodreads member. Like that I can download samples of recommended books to my Kindle. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:59:22 +0100)
@BillWongOT @dawnyford @Nnikki_Duffy @orlalalalala I read a lot of these because I am writing lots of OT conference proposals. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:59:23 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy #occhat what do they love about reading might give clues. Like the runner who can’t run but what was found meaningful was competitiveness(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:00:15 +0100)
@BillWongOT @eileenhegarty7 or sometimes you can interact with like minded readers across the globe, too. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:00:31 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy @BillWongOT @eileenhegarty7 just downloaded that app but never used #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:00:58 +0100)
@dawnyford @Nnikki_Duffy @billwongot reading can mean dif things at dif life stages – for me now def work but come June, will be for relaxation #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:01:09 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy haha! Same can be said with strategy books. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:01:30 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy That’s a good point @BillWongOT I think also being able to discuss what u have read is also important to recognise #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:03:32 +0100)
@orlalalalala @BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy @dawnyford @eileenhegarty7 i have to leave #occhat now, it was lovely chatting to you all. happy world book night!(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:03:40 +0100)
@eileenhegarty7 @BillWongOT Must check that out. Don’t have many friends who share my taste for popular science. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:03:49 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy yeah- the type of strategy books I will buy will be on poker. 😉 #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:03:55 +0100)
@BillWongOT @orlalalalala @Nnikki_Duffy @dawnyford @eileenhegarty7 nice chatting with you… see you later. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:04:31 +0100)
@AbbyPediatricOT @Nnikki_Duffy As an OT, you could ask questions to find out what aspect of reading is meaningful to your client. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:05:16 +0100)
@eileenhegarty7 @orlalalalala @BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy @dawnyford I’m being kicked off computer by a truculent child. Nice chatting with you all. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:05:24 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy @orlalalalala thank u for ur comments hope u have a lovely evening 🙂 #occhat happy world book day(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:05:33 +0100)
@BillWongOT @eileenhegarty7 @orlalalalala @Nnikki_Duffy @dawnyford see you later! #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:05:43 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy @AbbyPediatricOT exactly 🙂 #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:06:16 +0100)
@dawnyford @orlalalalala @billwongot @nnikki_duffy @eileenhegarty7 thanks for ur company tonight- interesting chat. Not a ghost ship after all! #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:06:34 +0100)
@AbbyPediatricOT @Nnikki_Duffy Does meaning come from being able to socialize at a bookclub? Learning new knowledge for work? Leisure/relaxation? #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:07:03 +0100)
@BillWongOT @AbbyPediatricOT @Nnikki_Duffy good question- when I did book club, it was the 1st one mostly. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:08:55 +0100)
@AbbyPediatricOT @eileenhegarty7 @orlalalalala @Nnikki_Duffy @dawnyford @BillWongOT Sorry I was late to the #occhat . Just wanted to pop in and say hi.(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:10:11 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy @AbbyPediatricOT stress reduction, emotional, traditions, role. The list can go on, shame that this is not explored more #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:10:13 +0100)
@BillWongOT @AbbyPediatricOT @eileenhegarty7 @orlalalalala @Nnikki_Duffy @dawnyford actually is not late at all- no grabchat until tomorrow. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:11:04 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy @AbbyPediatricOT but I think that can make a good occupational science article. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:11:34 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy #occhat I will never look at reading on a persons interest checklist the same way again :)(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:11:43 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy good take home point. Reading can lead you to know something more about a client. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:12:57 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy #occhat I need to always think.. what is meaningful, what is meaningful, what is meaningful. Keeps us OT focused :)(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:15:00 +0100)
@BillWongOT RT @Nnikki_Duffy : #occhat I need to always think.. what is meaningful, what is meaningful, what is meaningful. Keeps us OT focused :)(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:16:24 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy I think we all do. We should never be on auto-pilot, even if we are experts in a particular #OT area. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:17:18 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy #occhat thank u all for ur insight sorry I need to pop out. C u all again next week. Happy world book day :)(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:19:01 +0100)

@BillWongOT Turns out today is a pretty good day on #occhat – slow start, great finish!(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:19:56 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy RT @BillWongOT : Turns out today is a pretty good day on #occhat – slow start, great finish!(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:20:53 +0100)
@AbbyPediatricOT @BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy it would be interesting to study the meaning of reading in different groups of people #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:21:29 +0100)
@BillWongOT @AbbyPediatricOT @Nnikki_Duffy Now we just need an occupational scientist who is willing to study all that. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:22:23 +0100)
@AbbyPediatricOT @BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy for example, parents of children with autism or adults with a cancer diagnosis. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:22:39 +0100)
@AbbyPediatricOT @BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy Reading would probably provide meaning for both groups, but in very different ways. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:23:18 +0100)
@BillWongOT @AbbyPediatricOT @Nnikki_Duffy or you can start planning a study to present it at WFOT in 2018. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:23:41 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy @AbbyPediatricOT @billwongot great research proposal think of all the of times reading has been wrote down without a 2nd thought. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:24:21 +0100)
@BillWongOT @AbbyPediatricOT @Nnikki_Duffy For me, I know having a book club keeps me on my toes, as I needed extra push to read non-OT stuff. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:24:27 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy @AbbyPediatricOT anyone wants to spear head this anywhere? COT? AOTA? #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:25:19 +0100)
@Nnikki_Duffy @BillWongOT @abbypediatricot just think of all the ideas 4 research that have come from #occhat great resource 4 OT students #dissertation (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:28:46 +0100)
@BillWongOT @Nnikki_Duffy @AbbyPediatricOT but I think it will be good conference presentation topic. Something I didn’t think of b4 today. #occhat (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:30:13 +0100)

@Shahar_kar RT @Nnikki_Duffy : #occhat definitely luv reading, dream house would have a wall full of them. However books don’t always love me #dyslexic (Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:42:32 +0100)
@Dai2584 @orlalalalala #occhat . I thought that about quality reading but I think I read a lot more now that I have smart phone. what is quality?(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:47:44 +0100)
@kirstyes @orlalalalala @billwongot That sounds great. #occhat my only problem would be the leaving. Tend to be a book horder.(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 22:10:42 +0100)

@kirstyes @Nnikki_Duffy Also assume this is on kindle rather than apps. #occhat though tablets may have their own accessibility options.(Tue, 23 Apr 2013 22:18:41 +0100)
