Video as a medium in occupational therapy.
Abstract
In 1977, Daniels (18) reported that more than 50 percent of the centers surveyed in her study owned and produced videotapes. Videotape materials considered most vital were about evaluation, treatment, and the occupational therapy process. This article focused on the use of video as a "selected task" for treatment and as an audiovisual record of patient performance. The article was intended to stimulate thinking about the use of video as an effective medium in occupational therapy, and also to suggest several ways video could be used for patient treatment or education. Video has the capability of being the preferred "medium" in many situations because of its familiarity, believability, intimacy, immediacy, cost-effectiveness, availability for use in the home, ability to portray motion, and its proven effectiveness.
