Objectives: The objectives of this study were to demonstrate daily occupations and their self-perceived quality in persons with disability.
Methods: Twenty five participants responded to a questionnaire, The Occupation Schedule (modified from an Activity Configuration Log). The subjects were asked to categorize their daily
activities such as sleep, self-maintenance, work, rest, leisure and to rate their self-perceived
quality.
Results: The subjects had a high rate of unemployment (64%) and 12 subjects did not classify any occupation as work. The same occupation was classified into several different categories. The quality of occupation was rated at the satisfaction, importance, stress, and time adequacy.
Conclusions: The results suggest that the subjects’ classification of occupations and their meanings are important sources of information for the science of occupation and the occupational
therapy practice. Occupational therapists need to explore the alternative satisfying occupations to
replace the category of work.
