Occupational Justice: Occupational Justice: Appraising Occupational Therapy's Fourth ParadigmAppraising Occupational Therapy's Fourth Paradigm
Christopher J. Alterio, Dr.OT, OTRABC Therapeutics
East Amherst, New York
PurposePurpose
This presentation explores the history of paradigmatic change in OT theory.
Use a 'goodness of fit' analytic method to critically appraise the changes in theory associated with the globalization of occupational therapy and the new occupational justice orientation.
ObjectivesObjectives
Define the core values of the First, Second, and Third OT paradigms.
Compare and contrast Justice concepts with OT core values.
Appraise and discuss internal consistency of OT theory over time.
CaveatsCaveats
Paradigm ChangeParadigm Change
Do our ideas stay the same over time, or should they change?
Where we wereWhere we were
The First Paradigm:
•Occupational therapy identified itself as a field that
appreciated the importance of occupation in human life,
addressed problems of occupational disengagement, and
used occupation as a therapeutic measure
Where we wereWhere we were
The Second Paradigm: Occupational therapy identified itself as a field that considered
human performance as intact biomedical functions and operated
at the level of remediating those dysfunctional ‘inner workings’
that were impeding function

A Paradigm crisis occurs when questions emerge about the
shared values and beliefs of a scientific community or
professional group
The Derailment of OTThe Derailment of OT
•Phillip Shannon (1977)
–Student of Reilly
• ‘A discipline that forgets its founders may be lost’
The Derailment of OTThe Derailment of OT
•Phillip Shannon (1977)
–Derailment occurred by losing focus on founding principles of Meyer and Slagle
–While searching for scientific rationale, OT embraced the medical model
–Epistemological shift from social sciences to physical sciences
The Occupational Behavior ModelThe Occupational Behavior Model
The Third Paradigm: Occupational therapy identified itself as a field that returns to a
concern for occupation, originally articulated in context of
occupational behavior theory.
Reilly’s 1961 Slagle LectureReilly’s 1961 Slagle Lecture
The first premise:
•“That man, through the use of his hands as they are energized by mind and will, can influence the state of his own health.”
– She believed that this was an idea that could advance civilization
– Concerned if our culture was ‘ready’ for this concept
Reilly’s 1961 Slagle LectureReilly’s 1961 Slagle Lecture
A place and time to test the hypothesis
•Reilly perceived that the United States was the correct place to test this hypothesis
– A drive toward action is part of the American character (Lerner) reflected as ‘the self reliant craftsman’
– The American context/environment is inextricably a part of the American character
– “I believe, therefore, that the occupational therapy hypothesis is a natural one to be advanced in America.” (Reilly, 1961).
Reilly’s 1961 Slagle LectureReilly’s 1961 Slagle Lecture
What vital need does occupational therapy serve?
Premise: Work and production are physiologically conditioned needs
What is the unique service?
Premise: man has a need to master his environment, to alter and improve it.

A new paradigm: Occupational Justice?
Explicit exploration of applying social justice concepts to occupational therapy (Townsend and Wilcock, 2004).
Approaching therapy from a ‘rights’ and ‘justice’ perspective is a radical departure from traditional occupational therapy Core Values

These ideas were subsumed wholly into the thinking of many American scholars, who in turn began infusing these concepts into AOTA official documents, including the Code of Ethics and Practice Framework.
Definition of OTDefinition of OT
First Practice Framework
Occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants focus on assisting people to engage in daily life activities that they find meaningful and purposeful. Occupational therapy's domain stems from the profession's interest in human beings' ability to engage in everyday life activities.
◦(AOTA Practice Framework 2002)
Definition of OTDefinition of OT
• Third Practice Framework
• Occupational therapy is defined as the therapeutic use of everyday life activities (occupations) with individuals or groups for the purpose of enhancing or enabling participation in roles, habits, and routines in home, school, workplace, community, and other settings. Additionally, “the clients of occupational therapy are typically classified as persons (including those involved in care of a client), groups (collectives of individuals, e.g., families, workers, students, communities), and populations (collectives of groups of individuals living in a similar locale—e.g., city, state, or country—or sharing the same or like characteristics or concerns). Services are provided directly to clients using a collaborative approach or indirectly on behalf of clients through advocacy or consultation processes.• (AOTA Practice Framework 3rd ed., 2014).
Social Justice in other documentsSocial Justice in other documents
Social Justice was added to the 2010 Code of Ethics.
As definitions were still developing, the Social Justice construct was populated with all of the definitions under the 2005 Beneficence section
Thus, anything that was considered ‘promoting good’ was re-defined as ‘social justice’
Core Values & Attitudes of Core Values & Attitudes of Occupational Therapy PracticeOccupational Therapy Practice
•Social Justice is not mentioned in Dr. Reed's 'Values and Beliefs' series
•Justice itself is barely mentioned in these documents; there was no focus on justice.
•Simply stated, this was not a driving philosophical point for the profession (American context).

Contributing Core ValuesContributing Core Values
Misinterpreting Core ValuesMisinterpreting Core Values
• Why is it that occupational therapists have come to label social/distributive/occupational justice as a way of understanding the philosophy and ethic behind these efforts?
• Early philosophy of Christian philanthropy has been re-labeled as a social justice narrative
Core ValuesCore Values
There is necessarily a limit to the amount which the normal man can do for his unfortunate brother. There is necessarily a limit to the number of members of a community who can remain in idleness, no matter how distressing their condition. More than that — to support in idleness, even though in distress or pain, if not the worst, is not the best means of assisting the unfortunate.
◦Barton, 1917
Core ValuesCore Values
• Indeed, so thoroughly have our so-called charitable impulses undermined the self-respect of the people that a new medical term has been introduced in Europe to cover those cases who, through fear of not being supported for nothing, refuse to endeavor to return to work. This condition is known as "pension hysteria.”
–Barton, 1917
