Metabolic Equivalents of the Activity Card Sort: A Coding Study
Abstract
Date Presented 3/30/2017
The study establishes reliable metabolic equivalent values for the items of the Activity Card Sort. These assigned values may assist occupational therapists working with older adults to offer more targeted strategies and compensation assistance so older adults can continue participating in valued activities.

Social Self-Management of Parkinson’s Disease
Abstract
Date Presented 3/31/2017
This study investigated disease severity and social self-management styles of individuals with Parkinson’s disease. Three social self-management styles were associated with disease severity: participation in social life, exchange of support with others, and management of social resources.

Sedimentology and depositional environment of the Middle Ordovician Black Cove and American Tickle Formations - western Newfoundland
2013 Summer.Includes bibliographical references.The Middle Ordovician (Darriwilian) Black Cove (Nicholsonograptus fasciculatus biozone) and overlying American Tickle Formations (Pterograptus elegans biozone) represent the lower portion of the Goose Tickle Group located in western Newfoundland. The succession consists of a total of seven lithofacies, four siliciclastic and three carbonate that are grouped into three distinct facies associations. Facies association 1 (FA1) contains intercalations of clay-rich mudstones (Facies A) with silt-bearing, clay-rich mudstones (Facies B) and in places, foresets of alternating siltstone and clay-rich laminae (Facies C). Facies association 2 (FA2) consists of rocks within FA1 and localized massive, silt-to-sandstones (Facies D). Facies association 3 (FA3) is characterized by carbonate mud-to-wackestones (Facies E), laminated and massive, peloidal, skeletal packstones (Facies F), and skeletal grainstones (Facies G). Each of the three facies associations is interpreted to represent a distinct position on a proximal to distal transect of a shelf that faced the proto-Atlantic. Bedload transport processes are present throughout the succession and are indicated by sedimentary structures such as ripples, planar laminations, mudstone rip-up clasts and lenticular siltstone laminae. These high-energy event deposits likely represent episodically occurring storms and are intercalated into fine-grained fair-weather sediments (Facies A, C, and E). The Black Cove and American Tickle Formations as a whole show an overall shallowing-upward trend that is subdivided into four coarsening-upward parasequences marked by carbonates (FA3) directly overlying fine-grained siliciclastic mudstones (FA1 and FA2). Each of these parasequences is interpreted to represent a lowstand unit attributed to a sea level fall. A comparison with time-equivalent lowstands worldwide suggests that at least two of these lowstands are most likely tectonically-induced. The presence of characteristic shelf sediments showing easily recognized sea level fluctuations, and the absence of turbidites within the Black Cove and American Tickle Formations suggests that these units reflect deposition in a distal shelf environment and not on a lower slope or within a basin as previously suggested. Phycosiphon incertum fecal strings and local Planolites isp. ichnofossils are abundant in the carbonate and fine-grained siliciclastic mudstone facies, providing evidence of dysoxic rather than anoxic conditions during deposition of the Black Cove and American Tickle Formations, allowing benthic burrowing organisms to flourish
School Participation and Environmental Barriers of Children With Disabilities in Taiwan
Abstract
Date Presented 3/31/2017
School participation of Taiwanese children with disabilities was predicted by severity of impairments, age, and environmental factors. Findings might provide school-based practitioners insights about allocation of resources and services to promote school participation for children with disabilities.

The Association of Energy Depletion Problems With Retention of Daily Life Activities in People With Parkinson’s Disease
Abstract
Date Presented 3/31/2017
The study proposes the construct of energy depletion in people with Parkinson’s disease (PwPD) and evaluates its relationship with activity retention. PwPD with more fatigue and sleepiness retained fewer activities. Important to occupational therapy practice is that the direction of causality may be bidirectional.

A journey to client and therapist mutuality in person-centered psychotherapy: a case study
This aim of this case study was to build theory on the development of client–therapist mutuality in person-centered psychotherapy. A case study focusing on a 42-year-old female client who had presented for therapy following trauma within interpersonal relationships has been used. A reflective, theory-building, case study method was adopted that used data gathered from verbatim session notes and research interviews between the therapist (first author) and research supervisor (second author). Three primary therapeutic processes that contributed to the development of mutuality are discussed. First, the development of mutual empathy in the relationship; second, strategies for disconnection and staying out of relationship are identified. Third, client agency and mutuality is explored. In conclusion the study proposes that mutuality is a key construct within person-centered psychotherapy and develops as a natural consequence of the presence of Rogers’ therapeutic conditions
Is it practically possible to comply with the qualifying interest requirement when entering into a section 42 asset-for-share transaction concerning immovable property, given the applicable time of disposal rules and the application of the Companies Act?
The South African Income Tax Act No 58 of 1962 (“the ITA”) contains several group relief provisions aimed to facilitate corporate restructuring. In the ITA there are various examples of roll-over relief provisions generally that contain no time restrictions, nor which are determined with reference to a specific moment in time. That notwithstanding, section 42 of the ITA, colloquially known as referring to asset for-share transactions, requires a transferor company (the company disposing of an asset) to hold a qualifying interest in a transferee company (the company receiving the asset in exchange for the issue of shares) at the close of day on which the asset is disposed of. Accordingly, the ITA is prescriptive regarding the timing provision and when a qualifying interest in section 42 is required to be held. In this study, the author considers the practical application of the qualifying interest requirement and how compliance with this requirement is problematic when considering other legislative enactments. In doing so, the author identifies possible impediments for compliance with the section 42 qualifying interest requirement and furthermore attempts to adopt an interpretation in which the legislative enactments can either be reconciled or interpreted widely to ensure that the requirements of the ITA are complied with. The aim of this study and the question that the author attempted to address in its analysis above is whether it is practically possible to comply with the qualifying interest requirement when entering into a section 42 asset-for-share transaction concerning immovable property, given the applicable time of disposal rules and the application of the Companies Act? In this study and as part of the key findings of this paper, the author identifies several ambiguities arising from the application of various legislative enactments. The Companies Act and the impediments imposed by it to comply with the “qualifying interest” requirement enacted in section 42 of the ITA, specifically insofar as the issue of shares for adequate consideration is concerned in clearly highlighted by the author. To align the provisions of the various legislative enactments and in an attempt to reconcile them the author argued that a purposive approach to statutory interpretation should be adopted in which the practical application and functionality of the provision should be called into question
