  1. During an occupational profile, the OTR asks a client what a typical day looks like. This question is MOST useful for identifying:

    Answer: Occupational roles and routines

    The occupational profile explores daily routines, roles, and meaningful activities to guide client-centered intervention planning.

  2. The Functional Independence Measure (FIM) rates a patient's performance across 18 items. A score of 5 on any item indicates:

    Answer: Modified independence

    A FIM score of 5 denotes modified independence, meaning the person performs the task independently but uses an assistive device or takes extra time.

  3. An OTR is evaluating a child's handwriting using the Evaluation Tool of Children's Handwriting (ETCH). This assessment is most appropriate for children aged:

    Answer: 5–11 years

    The ETCH was designed and normed for children in grades 1–6, approximately ages 5–11.

  4. Which standardized tool uses direct observation of task performance to assess instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs) in older adults with cognitive impairment?

    Answer: Executive Function Performance Test (EFPT)

    The EFPT directly observes four IADL tasks to measure executive function deficits that affect daily living performance.

  5. When evaluating sensory processing in a school-age child, the Sensory Profile 2 is completed by:

    Answer: A caregiver or teacher through questionnaire

    The Sensory Profile 2 is a caregiver/teacher-completed questionnaire that captures the child's sensory processing patterns across contexts.

  6. A client with TBI is assessed using the Rancho Los Amigos Levels of Cognitive Functioning (LOCF). A rating of Level IV indicates:

    Answer: Confused and agitated behavior

    Rancho Level IV is characterized by confused-agitated behavior, with the client being alert but unable to process environmental information appropriately.

  7. An OTR assessing upper extremity function after stroke uses the Fugl-Meyer Assessment. This tool primarily measures:

    Answer: Sensorimotor impairment and joint range of motion

    The Fugl-Meyer Assessment quantifies sensorimotor impairment, passive joint motion, pain, and sensation in stroke survivors.
