The abstracts are in five categories: (1) assessment and measurement, (2) basic research, (3) health services research and education, (4) prevention and intervention, and (5) translational research. The current supplement consists of the abstracts presented April 4 to April 7, 2019, in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Each year, the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) publishes an online supplement to the American Journal of Occupational Therapy consisting of abstracts of the “research track” poster and seminar presentations at the AOTA Annual Conference & Expo. The abstracts are in five categories: (1) assessment and measurement, (2) basic research, (3) health services research and education, (4) prevention and intervention, and (5) translational research. The 2019 research track abstracts represent 439 of the 1,846 peer-reviewed poster and panel presentations presented over 4 days at the AOTA Annual Conference & Expo in New Orleans, Louisiana, April 4 to April 7, 2019.
Note that this supplement consists solely of abstracts of conference presentations; no articles are included. New this year is the addition of downloadable pdfs of each abstract. Editorial staff have minimally edited the abstracts, correcting only obvious typos and formatting errors. In some cases, abstracts were submitted with incomplete information and are presented accordingly. Authors who wish to correct errors should contact
The researchers who present at AOTA’s annual conferences do the field a great service by promoting knowledge translation and evidence-based practice. Many of the abstracts describe studies in progress; more complete reports may be forthcoming in the form of journal articles and other publications and presentations. Readers seeking additional information on the research described should contact the primary author.
