Laboratory of Teaching and Research in Occupational Therapy, Childhood and Adolescence – LEPTOI
Objectives/Results:
LEPTOI is an inter-institutional research group (FMRP-USP and UFSCAR) developed in a laboratory with the same name, integrating research, teaching, and extension activities. Its lines of research have advanced in knowledge from an occupational perspective, integrating the clinical and social contexts.
- Occupational performance of children and adolescents in different contexts: studies addressing development in adverse conditions such as domestic violence, social vulnerability, institutionalization; chronic diseases, hospitalization, disabilities; involvement with daily occupations, performance skills (children, adolescents, caregivers, and educators).
- Professional Training in health (health professions): studies addressing teaching-learning and assessment strategies; professionalism, professional competencies and learning as an occupation; student support, interpersonal violence, and gender-based violence within university settings. The studies in this line of research comprise both the specific context of training of occupational therapists and the broader context of health professionals’ training.
