Abstract

BACKGROUND: Occupational therapists can bring a unique and valuable perspective to the national dialogue on health promotion. Current approaches have a narrow focus on diet and exercise; a broader focus on occupation has the potential to enrich understanding regarding forces that contribute to health and well-being. PURPOSE: A new "Do-Live-Well" framework will be presented that is grounded in evidence regarding the links between what people do every day and their health and well-being. KEY ISSUES: Elements of the framework include eight different dimensions of experience and five key activity patterns that impact health and well-being outcomes. Personal and social forces that shape activity engagement also affect the links to health and well-being. IMPLICATIONS: The framework is designed to facilitate individual reflection, community advocacy, and system-level dialogue about the impact of day-to-day occupations on the health and well-being of Canadians.

  • The Do-Live-Well Framework identifies eight activity experiences and five activity patterns previously shown to impact health and well-being.

    “For example, the Do-Live-Well Framework (DLW) (83–85), a conceptual framework from Canada, identifies eight activity experiences and five activity patterns previously shown to impact health and well-being.”
  • Benefits of activity engagement may include expressing one's own goals and values, developing skills or knowledge, improving mental and physical well-being, interacting with others, contributing in one's community, and experiencing pleasure and satisfaction.

    “These benefits of activity engagement are not limited to but may include expressing one's own goals and values; developing one's skills or knowledge; improving mental and physical well-being; interacting with others; contributing in one's community; experiencing pleasure and satisfaction (25, 27).”
  • Involvement in self-chosen, personally and culturally meaningful activities is a recognized contributing factor in recovery and well-being, so that the further development of effective approaches to individualized support for engagement in meaningful and healthy activity patterns is important.

    “Involvement in self-chosen, personally and culturally meaningful activities is a recognized contributing factor in recovery and well-being (11, 27), so that the further development of effective approaches to individualized support for engagement in meaningful and healthy activity patterns is important (21).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
