摘要
This study examined the reliability and validity of the structural section of the Ayres Sensory Integration (R) Fidelity Measure (c) (ASIFM), which provides a method for monitoring the extent to which an intervention was implemented as conceptualized in studies of occupational therapy using sensory integration intervention methods (OT-SI). We examined the structural elements of the measure, including content of assessment reports, availability of specific equipment and adequate space, safety monitoring, and integration of communication with parents and other team members, such as collaborative goal setting with parents or family and teacher education, into the intervention program. Analysis of self-report ratings by 259 occupational therapists from 185 different facilities indicated that the structural section of the ASIFM has acceptable interrater reliability (r >= .82) and significantly differentiates between settings in which therapists reportedly do and do not practice OT-SI (p < .001).
