Psychomotor objectives in occupational therapy education

L R Greenstein

    The American Journal of Occupational Therapy : Official Publication of the American Occupational Therapy Association
    |July 1, 1976
    PubMed
    Summary

    Educational objective taxonomies are crucial for defining learning outcomes, yet psychomotor learning is often overlooked. This study proposes a model taxonomy for occupational therapy to address this gap, focusing on learner individuation in psychomotor skills.

    Area of Science:

    • Educational Psychology
    • Motor Learning
    • Occupational Therapy Education

    Background:

    • Educational objective taxonomies are vital for specifying intended learning outcomes.
    • There is a notable neglect of objectives targeting psychomotor learning in educational frameworks.
    • Extensive literature exists on motor learning and psychomotor behavior classification.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the role of educational objective taxonomies in defining learning outcomes.
    • To address the underemphasis on psychomotor learning objectives.
    • To propose a model taxonomy for occupational therapy education.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review on motor learning and psychomotor behavior classification.
    • Analysis of existing taxonomic frameworks for universal applicability.
    • Development of a model taxonomy for occupational therapy based on individuation.

    Main Results:

    • No single psychomotor taxonomy possesses universal applicability across disciplines.
    • Discipline-specific taxonomic systems may need to be formulated by drawing on existing literature.
    • A model taxonomy for occupational therapy differentiates psychomotor performance levels by the degree of learner individuation.

    Conclusions:

    • Educational taxonomies require a balanced focus on cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains.
    • Occupational therapy education can benefit from a tailored psychomotor taxonomy.
    • The proposed model emphasizes the unique quality of performance introduced by the learner.
