    Occupational therapists focused more on data collection than patient relationships during initial interviews. This study highlights a need to improve interpersonal communication skills in occupational therapy practice.

    Area of Science:

    • Occupational Therapy
    • Communication Studies
    • Healthcare Interaction Analysis

    Background:

    • Effective patient-therapist communication is crucial for successful occupational therapy outcomes.
    • Initial patient interviews set the foundation for therapeutic relationships and treatment planning.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze interaction patterns during initial occupational therapy patient interviews.
    • To identify the balance between data gathering and interpersonal communication in therapy sessions.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized Flanders' system of interaction analysis.
    • Analyzed audiotapes of 12 occupational therapists' initial patient interviews.
    • Assessed interaction dynamics based on clinical experience levels (1-18 years).

    Main Results:

    • Therapist interactions predominantly focused on the mechanics of data acquisition.
    • Interpersonal communication development was less emphasized compared to information gathering.
    • No significant correlation was found between therapist experience and interaction style.

    Conclusions:

    • Occupational therapy interviews may prioritize procedural aspects over relational engagement.
    • Enhancing therapists' interpersonal communication skills is recommended for improved patient rapport and therapeutic alliance.
    • Further research should explore strategies to integrate effective communication techniques into clinical practice.
