INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
In this episode of OT Unleashed: Student Takeover, Katie Peterson and Dr. Erik Johnson explore how occupational therapists approach the evaluation process in adaptive gaming using the Gaming Assessment and Measurement for Enabled User Performance (GAME-UP) framework. They walk through how clinicians begin with the occupational profile, assess motor, cognitive, and sensory performance skills, analyze environmental and game demands,to determine the best adaptive setup for each individual.
This episode highlights how thoughtful evaluation helps therapists match the right technology, accessibility features, and gaming strategies to each client’s unique abilities and goals, ultimately supporting meaningful participation in gaming and social connection. Listeners will also learn common evaluation pitfalls and why adaptive gaming assessment is about more than equipment and more about enabling engagement, autonomy, and inclusive play
