Occupational Identity Questionnaire - Provisional Version (OIQ-P V.1.0)
0)
Due to the increasing number of elderly populations, occupational therapy services for the elderly are
expected to increase, and self-reported outcomes specialized for the elderly will be beneficial. The
assessment of occupational identity allows occupational therapists to determine if a client’s occupational
identity is dysfunctional. Therefore, the authors here have developed a self-report assessment of the
occupational identity of older adults. A questionnaire was generated to assess the occupational identity of
the elderly. The OIQ-P contributes to an occupation-centered practice for elderly people living in the
community.
The OIQ-P consists of 21 items, and each item is rated on a 4-point scale (Strongly Disagree, 1; Disagree, 2;
Agree, 3; Strongly Agree, 4). The total points range from 21 to 84 points.
