RESUMO
IMPORTANCE: Despite the potential of community-engaged implementation research (CEIR) in developing strategies to accelerate the translation of evidence-based interventions (EBIs), there is a noticeable knowledge gap in the current state of CEIR in occupational therapy. A synthesis of the concept, purpose, and operationalization of CEIR is necessary. OBJECTIVE: To identify the contexts, purposes, and operationalization of CEIR, focusing on implementation strategies in occupational therapy. DATA SOURCES: PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Scopus, and Web of Science. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA COLLECTION: We included studies that were explicit and intentional about CEIR and that focused on implementation strategies to support the translation of occupational therapy interventions, clinical guidelines, practice models, theories, or assessments. We extracted the research context (e.g., partners, recruitment), purpose (e.g., why community-engaged research was used), and operationalization (e.g., community engagement [CE] activities, how their findings inform the research) using thematic analysis. FINDINGS: Of 3,219 records, 6 studies were included. Involved partners were mainly occupational therapy practitioners from existing networks. CEIR that focuses on implementation strategies informs various aspects of research design, ranging from study design to sustainability, by developing community-academia partnerships, building implementation capacity, and creating implementation strategies across diverse research areas. Current research has used various but mostly traditional CE activities (e.g., focus groups). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: We synthesized evidence on CEIR focused on implementation strategies in occupational therapy. Intentional efforts are needed to collaborate with diverse partners, explore innovative CE activities, produce equitable outputs, and develop multilevel implementation strategies to accelerate the translation of EBIs into practice. Plain-Language Summary: In this review, we synthesize evidence on the contexts, purposes, and operationalization of community-engaged implementation research (CEIR), focusing on implementation strategies in occupational therapy research. We found that current implementation efforts mainly rely on occupational therapy practitioners as community partners and use traditional recruitment methods and community engagement activities. In turn, they develop implementation strategies that mainly target practitioners without comprehensive, multilevel implementation support. We suggest more equitable collaboration with diverse partners to effectively promote the implementation and dissemination of evidence-based interventions in occupational therapy practice.

BACKGROUND: We recently identified three distinct Parkinson's disease subtypes: "motor only" (predominant motor deficits with intact cognition and psychiatric function); "psychiatric & motor" (prominent psychiatric symptoms and moderate motor deficits); "cognitive & motor" (cognitive and motor deficits). OBJECTIVE: We used an independent cohort to replicate and assess reliability of these Parkinson's disease subtypes. METHODS: We tested our original subtype classification with an independent cohort (N = 100) of Parkinson's disease participants without dementia and the same comprehensive evaluations assessing motor, cognitive, and psychiatric function. Next, we combined the original (N = 162) and replication (N = 100) datasets to test the classification model with the full combined dataset (N = 262). We also generated 10 random split-half samples of the combined dataset to establish the reliability of the subtype classifications. Latent class analyses were applied to the replication, combined, and split-half samples to determine subtype classification. RESULTS: First, LCA supported the three-class solution - Motor Only, Psychiatric & Motor, and Cognitive & Motor- in the replication sample. Next, using the larger, combined sample, LCA again supported the three subtype groups, with the emergence of a potential fourth group defined by more severe motor deficits. Finally, split-half analyses showed that the three-class model also had the best fit in 13/20 (65%) split-half samples; two-class and four-class solutions provided the best model fit in five (25%) and two (10%) split-half replications, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: These results support the reproducibility and reliability of the Parkinson's disease behavioral subtypes of motor only, psychiatric & motor, and cognitive & motor groups.

Motor and nonmotor symptoms occur in early Parkinson's disease (PD), or even in the prodromal stage. Many of these symptoms can be addressed by allied health therapies, including physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and psychological therapies. However, referrals to these services early in the disease are low. We provide a review summarizing the efficacy of proactive allied health interventions on motor and nonmotor symptoms and daily function in prodromal and early disease. We also highlight areas for additional research and provide recommendations to improve care for individuals with early PD within each discipline. We recognize the overlapping roles of the allied health disciplines and support integrated or transdisciplinary care beginning soon after diagnosis to help stem the tide in the progression of PD symptoms and disability.
Many people with Parkinson's disease start having symptoms years before their diagnosis. These symptoms can affect movement, communication, mood, work, and other aspects of daily life. Allied health therapies can be used soon after diagnosis, or even when diagnosis is suspected, to address these challenges proactively. This article reviews the roles of physical, occupational, speech, and psychological therapies. We highlight interventions for early Parkinson's disease that are strongly supported by research, such as exercise and self-management.

IMPORTANCE: There is no evidence-based system to guide occupational therapists in implementing theory-based, client-engaged goal setting and goal management. A new system is needed to support high-quality goal setting and goal management. OBJECTIVE: To determine the acceptability, appropriateness, feasibility, credibility, and expectancy of a new structured theory-based, client-engaged goal setting and goal management system, called MyGoals, for occupational therapists. We explored MyGoals' implementation determinants, potential positive outcomes, and comparative advantages. DESIGN: This was a mixed-methods feasibility study. SETTING: Community. PARTICIPANTS: Occupational therapists (N = 7). OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility were assessed using the Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM), Intervention Appropriateness Measure (IAM), and Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM). Credibility and expectancy were assessed with the Credibility and Expectancy Questionnaire (CEQ). Semistructured 1:1 interviews were conducted to explore occupational therapy perspectives on MyGoals and its implementation-related factors. RESULTS: MyGoals had high AIM (M = 18.1, SD = 1.9), IAM (M = 17.9, SD = 2.2), FIM (M = 17.3, SD = 2.1) scores and high CEQ Credibility (M = 22.1, SD = 5.0) and Expectancy (M = 20.6, SD = 4.3) scores. Interview data revealed suggestions to improve MyGoals, implementation determinants across the individuals involved, inner setting, and intervention characteristic domains, client- and clinician-related potential positive outcomes, and comparative advantages. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: MyGoals is an acceptable, appropriate, feasible, credible, and promising system to guide occupational therapists in implementing theory-based, client-engaged goal setting and goal management for adults with chronic conditions in community-based rehabilitation. What This Article Adds: MyGoals is an easy-to-use, appealing, and helpful system to support occupational therapists in delivering theory-based goal setting and goal management components and to enable adults with chronic conditions to actively engage in their rehabilitation. This study supports the usefulness of MyGoals in community-based rehabilitation to improve goal setting and goal management quality and personally meaningful rehabilitation goal achievement in this population.

Cognitive self-efficacy (CSE), one's belief in their ability to control their cognitive performance, is important for participation in daily activities and rehabilitation. This study aims to understand how Parkinson's disease (PD) affects CSE. The Cognitive Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (CSEQ) was administered to 47 non-demented PD and 52 healthy comparison (HC) participants. Groups were compared on their self-reported ability to recognize (Part 1) and manage (Part 2) cognitive symptoms and to perform cognitively complex functional activities (Part 4). Relationships between CSEQ scores and individual characteristics were assessed within PD. The PD group had lower CSEQ scores than the HC group for all Parts. Within PD, Part 2 scores were lower than Parts 1 and 4, and worse depressive symptoms and higher medication dosage correlated with lower CSE. People with PD may have low CSE, which can contribute to participation restrictions and reduced engagement in treatment. Occupational therapists should consider CSE with clients with PD.
Cognitive deficits are common in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) and affect their quality of life. In this study, the researchers looked at cognitive self-efficacy (CSE) or the belief in one's cognitive abilities and compared the CSE of healthy individuals with individuals with PD without dementia. The findings of the study suggest that non-demented individuals with PD have lower CSE as compared with healthy individuals. Furthermore, individuals with PD may have difficulty recognizing and managing their cognitive deficits such as memory deficits or distractibility. This may affect their ability to participate in everyday tasks that require complex cognition such as managing finances or shopping or engaging in therapy interventions focused on cognition. The study also found that greater depressive symptoms and higher dose of dopamine medications in non-demented individuals with PD lowered their CSE. This study recommends that rehabilitation professionals include assessments and interventions on CSE during treatment sessions.
RESUMO
IMPORTANCE: Although subjective memory complaints (SMCs) have been suggested to be associated with future memory impairment, limitations in instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs), and social participation restriction, these associations are still inconclusive. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether changes in SMCs over time predict decline in memory, IADLs, and social participation in older adults. DESIGN: Longitudinal study. SETTING: Community. PARTICIPANTS: Sample 1 included 2,493 community-dwelling older adults drawn from the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) data collected between 2004 and 2018. Sample 2 included 1,644 community-dwelling older adults drawn from the HRS data collected between 2008 and 2018. OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Self-reported SMCs, memory function, self-reported IADL performance, and self-reported social participation. RESULTS: The mean age of Sample 1 at baseline was 70.16 yr; 1,468 (58.88%) were female. In Sample 1, immediate and delayed memory (all ps < .001) and IADL performance (p < .01) declined over time. Increases in SMCs over time significantly predicted future immediate and delayed memory declines (p < .01 and p < .001, respectively) and future IADL performance decline (p < .001), after controlling for depressive symptoms. The mean age of Sample 2 at baseline was 71.52 yr; 928 (56.45%) were female. In Sample 2, social participation declined over time (all ps < .001). Increases in SMCs over time significantly predicted future social participation decline (p < .05), after controlling for depressive symptoms. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Increases in SMCs predict future decline in memory, IADL performance, and social participation after accounting for depressive symptoms. What This Article Adds: SMCs can be used as an early indicator of future memory impairment, IADL limitations, and social participation restrictions in older adults. Furthermore, interventions that minimize SMCs may help older adults achieve successful aging.

Fatigue is one of the most burdensome and disabling symptoms in numerous acute and chronic conditions and is associated with reduced participation in all aspects of daily life, for example, parenting, employment, and socialization. Historically, occupational practitioners played key roles in fatigue management by creating and implementing interventions. The American Occupational Therapy Foundation convened a Planning Grant Collective workshop with the goal to develop collaborative research ideas and proposals to advance the understanding and management of fatigue. Participants from occupational therapy and other disciplines, with expertise with fatigue or who were conducting research on fatigue, participated in a 3-day virtual workshop. Four main topics emerged: implementation science, treatment taxonomy, trial design and comparative effectiveness, and phenotyping. This white paper describes the proceedings, summarizes the discussions, and outlines recommendations from the PGC workshop on fatigue.

Background: There is a need for an effective evidence-based system to support high-quality goal setting and goal management implementation. We developed a new system for community-based rehabilitation, MyGoals, along with implementation strategies to support occupational therapists (OTs) in its administration. This study evaluates the acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility of the implementation strategies, Clinician Education and Audit & Feedback. It also explores whether OTs achieve the change objectives of the MyGoals implementation strategies and MyGoals intervention fidelity. Methods: This mixed-methods case series study evaluated the MyGoals implementation strategies developed using Implementation Mapping (IM), specifically IM Task 5 - Implementation Outcome Evaluation. Seven OTs and 13 adults with chronic conditions participated in this study. OTs participated in two Clinician Education sessions, delivered two MyGoals interventions, and participated in two Audit & Feedback sessions. We evaluated the implementation strategies using the Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM), Intervention Appropriateness Measure (IAM), Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM), and semi-structured interviews and explored the OTs' self-rated MyGoals change objectives achievement and the intervention fidelity using quantitative MyGoals intervention fidelity measures and interviews. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Qualitative data were analyzed by two independent coders using content analysis. Results: Seven OTs participated in this study (mean years of professional experience = 9.3, SD = 5.9). Clinician Education and Audit & Feedback had high AIM (M = 17.9, SD = 2.7), IAM (M = 17.3, SD = 3.60), and FIM scores (M = 17.3, SD = 3). The OTs also had high mean scores on self-perceived achievement of change objectives and intervention fidelity. Qualitative interviews suggested that the time commitment for Clinician Education is a key barrier to its acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility. Participants also provided suggestions on how to improve the strategies (e.g., providing recorded Clinician Education, etc.). Conclusions: The MyGoals implementation strategies are acceptable, appropriate, and feasible to OTs working in community-based rehabilitation. They support OTs in achieving the change objectives necessary to deliver MyGoals completely and competently. Thus, the MyGoals implementation strategies may support clinicians in implementing a theory-based, client-engaged goal setting and goal management for adults with chronic conditions in community-based rehabilitation. This can ultimately help improve the integration of evidence-based interventions into practice.
RESUMO
Telehealth-delivered goal setting and goal management may guide occupational therapists (OTs) to form a strong foundation of active client engagement and personally meaningful goals on which to base effective telehealth intervention. The objective was to determine the feasibility of a goal setting and goal management system, called MyGoals, delivered through telehealth and hybrid formats for adults with chronic conditions. This was a mixed-method feasibility study. The Credibility and Expectancy Questionnaire and Client Satisfaction Questionnaire-8 measured credibility, expectancy, and satisfaction. The Goals and Participation subscales of the Client-Centredness of Goal Setting Scale measured engagement and person-centeredness. Targeted self-ratings measured change objective achievement. Individuals' perspectives on MyGoals' feasibility were further explored in semi-structured interviews. In telehealth (N = 8) and hybrid (N = 9) groups, MyGoals had good credibility (M = 25.5, SD = 1.9), expectancy (M = 23.4, SD = 3.3), satisfaction (M = 31.3, SD = 0.9), client engagement (M = 29.4, SD = 1.5), person-centeredness (M = 19.5, SD = 1.2), and change objective achievement (M = 9.6, SD = 0.2). The interview data suggested improvements for MyGoals. In conclusion, telehealth delivery of MyGoals is feasible to support goal setting and goal management for adults with chronic conditions.

PURPOSE: Evaluate the feasibility of person-centered goal setting in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) who have subjective cognitive decline and explore characteristics of the formulated goals. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Participants completed person-centered goal setting as a part of two cognitive intervention studies. Participants were guided to develop at least three goals and rate the importance of each goal using a 10-point scale (1: not at all important - 10: extremely important). To evaluate the feasibility of person-centered goal setting, we calculated the mean number of formulated goals per person and the importance level of all goals. To explore goal characteristics, two independent authors coded all goals and synthesized them using deductive content analysis in consultation with the senior author. RESULTS: Thirty participants formulated a total of 166 goals. The mean number of formulated goals per participant was 5.53 (SD = 2.22, range = 3 - 10). The mean importance level of all formulated goals was 8.3 (SD = 1.49, range = 4 - 10). Formulated goals ranged across diverse domains and categories. CONCLUSIONS: Person-centered goal setting is feasible to guide people with PD to formulate personally meaningful goals. Findings highlight the diverse cognitive rehabilitation needs of people with PD, potential cognitive rehabilitation priorities, and future goal setting research directions.Implications for rehabilitationRehabilitation clinicians and researchers should not assume that people with PD who have subjective cognitive decline are not capable of engaging in their goal setting.Rehabilitation clinicians and researchers should acknowledge and act on our responsibility to enable people with PD who have subjective cognitive decline to engage in goal setting.Rehabilitation clinicians and researchers are encouraged to explore diverse goal domains to optimize goal setting and rehabilitation care among people with PD who have subjective cognitive decline.

Background: Although goal setting and goal management (GSGM) is a key component of chronic disease management and rehabilitation practice, there is currently no widely used evidence-based intervention system available. This paper describes the theoretical underpinnings and development of a new intervention called MyGoals. MyGoals is designed to guide occupational therapy (OT) practitioners to implement theory-based, client-engaged GSGM for adults with chronic conditions in community-based OT rehabilitation settings. Methods: We first developed a planning team with two adults with chronic conditions, two clinicians, and two researchers. As a collaborative team, we co-developed MyGoals by following Intervention Mapping (IM) steps 1-4 and incorporating community-based participatory research principles to ensure equitable, ecologically valid, and effective intervention development. In the first step, the planning team conducted a discussion-based needs assessment and a systematic review of current GSGM practice to develop a logic model of the problem. In the second step, the planning team identified performance objectives, intervention target personal determinants, and change objectives, and created a logic model of change and matrics of change objectives. In the third step, the planning team designed MyGoals. Lastly, in the fourth step, the planning team produced, pilot-tested, and refined MyGoals. Results: The ultimate goal of the MyGoals intervention is to enable clients to achieve personally meaningful rehabilitation goals. The planning team identified four target determinants (e.g., self-efficacy), six intervention activities (e.g., Education, Reflection, Find My Goals, Make My Goals, Make My Plans, My Progress), eight performance objectives (e.g., List potential goals), and 26 change objectives (e.g., Understand the importance of GSGM). Two pilot tests indicated that MyGoals is feasible for clients and identified areas for improvement. Based on the feedback, minor refinements were made to the MyGoals intervention materials. Conclusions: We completed rigorous and collaborative IM to develop MyGoals. Establishing the theoretical and developmental foundation for MyGoals sets the groundwork for high-quality, evidence-based GSGM. Future studies on effectiveness and implementation are necessary to refine, translate, and scale MyGoals in rehabilitation practice.
RESUMO
Importance: Episodic memory and executive function are essential aspects of cognitive functioning that decline with aging. This decline may be ameliorable with lifestyle interventions. Objective: To determine whether mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), exercise, or a combination of both improve cognitive function in older adults. Design, Setting, and Participants: This 2 × 2 factorial randomized clinical trial was conducted at 2 US sites (Washington University in St Louis and University of California, San Diego). A total of 585 older adults (aged 65-84 y) with subjective cognitive concerns, but not dementia, were randomized (enrollment from November 19, 2015, to January 23, 2019; final follow-up on March 16, 2020). Interventions: Participants were randomized to undergo the following interventions: MBSR with a target of 60 minutes daily of meditation (n = 150); exercise with aerobic, strength, and functional components with a target of at least 300 minutes weekly (n = 138); combined MBSR and exercise (n = 144); or a health education control group (n = 153). Interventions lasted 18 months and consisted of group-based classes and home practice. Main Outcomes and Measures: The 2 primary outcomes were composites of episodic memory and executive function (standardized to a mean [SD] of 0 [1]; higher composite scores indicate better cognitive performance) from neuropsychological testing; the primary end point was 6 months and the secondary end point was 18 months. There were 5 reported secondary outcomes: hippocampal volume and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex thickness and surface area from structural magnetic resonance imaging and functional cognitive capacity and self-reported cognitive concerns. Results: Among 585 randomized participants (mean age, 71.5 years; 424 [72.5%] women), 568 (97.1%) completed 6 months in the trial and 475 (81.2%) completed 18 months. At 6 months, there was no significant effect of mindfulness training or exercise on episodic memory (MBSR vs no MBSR: 0.44 vs 0.48; mean difference, -0.04 points [95% CI, -0.15 to 0.07]; P = .50; exercise vs no exercise: 0.49 vs 0.42; difference, 0.07 [95% CI, -0.04 to 0.17]; P = .23) or executive function (MBSR vs no MBSR: 0.39 vs 0.31; mean difference, 0.08 points [95% CI, -0.02 to 0.19]; P = .12; exercise vs no exercise: 0.39 vs 0.32; difference, 0.07 [95% CI, -0.03 to 0.18]; P = .17) and there were no intervention effects at the secondary end point of 18 months. There was no significant interaction between mindfulness training and exercise (P = .93 for memory and P = .29 for executive function) at 6 months. Of the 5 prespecified secondary outcomes, none showed a significant improvement with either intervention compared with those not receiving the intervention. Conclusions and Relevance: Among older adults with subjective cognitive concerns, mindfulness training, exercise, or both did not result in significant differences in improvement in episodic memory or executive function at 6 months. The findings do not support the use of these interventions for improving cognition in older adults with subjective cognitive concerns. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02665481.

IMPORTANCE: Occupational therapy practitioners address the occupational performance and participation needs of people with Parkinson's disease (PD) and their care partners. OBJECTIVE: This Practice Guideline is informed by systematic reviews on the use of occupational therapy interventions to promote participation in occupations for people with PD and to facilitate their caregivers' participation in the caregiver role. This guideline is meant to support practitioners' clinical decision making when working with people with PD and their care partners. METHOD: We examined and synthesized the results of four systematic reviews and integrated those results into clinical recommendations for practice. RESULTS: Thirty-three articles from the systematic reviews served as the basis for the clinical recommendations in this Practice Guideline. Clinical recommendations are provided for interventions that have strong or moderate supporting evidence. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS: Multidisciplinary, tailored, goal-oriented intervention is recommended for people with PD. Various forms of exercise can be used to improve activities of daily living and instrumental activities of daily living performance and social participation, and interventions should incorporate health behavior change techniques to support adequate physical activity levels in daily life. Mindfulness meditation and exercise can be used to support sleep, and task-oriented training can be used to improve performance of specific tasks. Occupational therapy practitioners should incorporate self-management, coaching, compensatory, cognitive-behavioral, and other approaches into multicomponent treatment plans depending on the client's needs and goals. Additional potentially appropriate intervention approaches or areas to address are discussed on the basis of existing or emerging evidence and expert opinion. What This Article Adds: This Practice Guideline provides a summary and applications of the current evidence supporting occupational therapy intervention for people with PD. It includes case examples and suggested decision-making algorithms to support practitioners in addressing client goals.

OBJECTIVE: To synthesize empowerment definitions in Parkinson's disease (PD) literature and understand people with PD's perspective on empowerment in the context of an existing empowerment conceptual model. METHODS: This mixed-methods study included a scoping review of PD empowerment literature and interviews with adults with PD. Five databases were searched for articles that defined empowerment concepts. We analyzed 1:1 semi-structured interviews on empowerment with people with PD. All data were analyzed using hybrid thematic analysis. RESULTS: Eight of 242 records were included in this review. Empowerment is defined as an intrapersonal (e.g., personal control over oneself or healthcare) or interpersonal construct (e.g., person-centered care). Thirty-seven participants completed the interview. Participants perceived empowerment as a multifaceted concept that interacts with determinants and moderators from different ecological levels. CONCLUSION: Empowerment is a noteworthy multilevel and relational construct that can interplay with important health-related factors. The developed working conceptual model of empowerment can inform future studies to explore empowerment concepts in more depth and develop PD empowerment-based interventions. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: The empowerment definitions, indicators, determinants, and moderators identified in this study can help researchers, clinicians, and policymakers critically conceptualize empowerment and develop interventions to support people with PD.

The Weekly Calendar Planning Activity (WCPA) may improve understanding of functional cognition in people with Parkinson disease (PwPD) without dementia. We aimed to determine if WCPA performance (a) discriminates between PwPD with and without cognitive impairment and healthy controls and (b) correlates with other indicators of cognition and daily function. This was a cross-sectional study. Parkinson disease (PD) participants without dementia were divided into normal cognition (PD-NC, n = 25) and possible mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI, n = 21) groups. Their WCPA performance was compared with that of a normative sample (n = 196) and correlated with neuropsychological test performance and self-reported cognition and participation. Both the PD-MCI and PD-NC groups had impaired WCPA performance. WCPA performance correlated with executive function, processing speed, and self-reported cognition and participation. The WCPA can detect functional cognitive deficits in PwPD without dementia and can inform occupational therapy interventions to support functional cognition, occupational performance, and participation in this population.

Aims: This study aims to identify implementation determinants, mechanisms of action, implementation strategies, and implementation outcome evaluation plans for a new theory-based rehabilitation goal setting and goal management intervention system, called MyGoals, using Implementation Mapping with community-based participatory research principles. Methods: We completed Implementation Mapping tasks 1 to 4 as a planning team consisting of MyGoals target implementers (occupational therapists (OTs), MyGoals intervention target clients (adults with chronic conditions), and the research team. We are currently conducting mapping task 5. These processes were guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research, social cognitive theory, the taxonomy of behavior change methods, and Proctor's implementation research framework. Results: We identified intervention-level determinants (MyGoals' evidence strength & quality, relative advantages) and OT-level determinants (knowledge, awareness, skills, self-efficacy, outcome expectancy). We selected the MyGoals implementation outcome (OTs will deliver MyGoals completely and competently), outcome variables (acceptability, appropriateness, feasibility, fidelity), and process outcomes. We also determined three performance objectives (e.g., OTs will deliver all MyGoals intervention components) and 15 change objectives (e.g., OTs will demonstrate skills for delivering all MyGoals intervention components). Based on the identified outcomes, objectives, and determinants, we specified the mechanisms of change (e.g., active learning). To address these determinants and achieve the implementation outcomes, we produced two tailored MyGoals implementation strategies: MyGoals Clinician Education and MyGoals Clinician Audit & Feedback. We developed evaluation plans to explore and evaluate how these two MyGoals implementation strategies perform using a mixed-methods study of OT-client dyads. Conclusion: We produced tailored implementation strategies for a rehabilitation goal setting and goal management intervention by using Implementation Mapping with community-based participatory research principles. The MyGoals implementation strategies may help OTs implement high-quality goal setting and goal management practice and thus contribute to bridging current research-practice gaps. Our findings can provide insight on how to apply implementation science in rehabilitation to improve the development and translation of evidence-based interventions to enhance health in adults with chronic conditions.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: People with Parkinson disease (PD) commonly experience cognitive decline, which may relate to increased α-synuclein, tau, and ß-amyloid accumulation. This study examines whether the different proteins predict longitudinal cognitive decline in PD. METHODS: All participants (PD n = 152, controls n = 52) were part of a longitudinal study and completed a lumbar puncture for CSF protein analysis (α-synuclein, total tau [tau], and ß-amyloid42 [ß-amyloid]), a ß-amyloid PET scan, and/or provided a blood sample for APOE genotype (ε4+, ε4-), which is a risk factor for ß-amyloid accumulation. Participants also had comprehensive, longitudinal clinical assessments of overall cognitive function and dementia status, as well as cognitive testing of attention, language, memory, and visuospatial and executive function. We used hierarchical linear growth models to examine whether the different protein metrics predict cognitive change and multivariate Cox proportional hazard models to predict time to dementia conversion. Akaike information criterion was used to compare models for best fit. RESULTS: Baseline measures of CSF ß-amyloid predicted decline for memory (p = 0.04) and overall cognitive function (p = 0.01). APOE genotypes showed a significant group (ε4+, ε4-) effect such that ε4+ individuals declined faster than ε4- individuals in visuospatial function (p = 0.03). Baseline ß-amyloid PET significantly predicted decline in all cognitive measures (all p ≤ 0.004). Neither baseline CSF α-synuclein nor tau predicted cognitive decline. All 3 ß-amyloid--related metrics (CSF, PET, APOE) also predicted time to dementia. Models with ß-amyloid PET as a predictor fit the data the best. DISCUSSION: Presence or risk of ß-amyloid accumulation consistently predicted cognitive decline and time to dementia in PD. This suggests that ß-amyloid has high potential as a prognostic indicator and biomarker for cognitive changes in PD.

Objectives:This study aims to examine whether subjective memory complaints (SMC) contribute to social participation among older adults.Method:The study sample was 4,713 community-dwelling older adults aged 65 years and older from four waves (2010, 2012, 2014, 2016) of the Health and Retirement Study. Hierarchical linear modeling analysis was used to examine the association of SMC with social participation after controlling for factors influencing social participation. Demographic factors (i.e. age, gender, and perceived socioeconomic status) were entered in block 1, health-related factors (i.e. health conditions, perceived health, instrumental activities of daily living, memory-immediate and delayed, and depressive symptoms) were entered in block 2, environmental factors (i.e. perceived social support and strain from spouse, child, family, and friend) were entered in block 3, and SMC was entered in block 4.Results:The result showed that factors significantly contributing to social participation are age (standardized ß = -0.08, p < 0.01), perceived socioeconomic status (ß = 0.16, p < 0.001), perceived health (ß = 0.15, p < 0.001), instrumental activities of daily living (ß = 0.12, p < 0.001), memory-immediate and delayed (ß = 0.09, p < 0.001; ß = 0.08, p < 0.001, respectively), social support from spouse and friend (ß = 0.04, p < 0.05; ß = 0.13, p < 0.001, respectively), social strain from friend (ß = 0.07, p < 0.001), and SMC (ß = -0.05, p < 0.001). The demographic factors explained 9.5%, health-related factors explained 8.5%, environmental factors explained 2.4%, and SMC explained 0.1% of the variance in social participation.Conclusion: This finding suggests that SMC may contribute to social participation in older adults.Supplemental data for this article can be accessed online at https://doi.org/10.1080/13607863.2021.1961123 .

OBJECTIVE: This systematic review aims to examine (1) what components are used in current person-centered goal-setting interventions for adults with health conditions in rehabilitation and (2) the extent to which the engagement of people in their rehabilitation goal setting is encouraged. DATA SOURCES: PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Scopus, and Web of Science from inception to November 2020. STUDY SELECTION: Primary inclusion criteria were peer-reviewed articles that evaluated person-centered goal-setting interventions for adults with health conditions in rehabilitation. Two independent reviewers screened 28,294 records, and 22 articles met inclusion criteria. DATA EXTRACTION: Two reviewers independently completed data extraction and quality assessment using the Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDRo) scale based on the original authors' descriptions, reports, and protocol publications. Any discrepancies were resolved by consensus or in consultation with another senior reviewer. DATA SYNTHESIS: Using narrative synthesis, we found that current person-centered goal setting has variability in their inclusion of intervention components. A considerable number of components are underimplemented in current practice, with formulation of coping plan and follow-up being most commonly left out. The active engagement of people does appear to be promoted within the components that are included in the interventions. Nine studies were high-quality defined as a total PEDro scale score of 6 or above. CONCLUSIONS: Although current person-centered goal setting encourages the active engagement of people, many of these interventions lack components considered important for supporting goal achievement and optimal outcomes. Future practice may be improved by incorporating a comprehensive set of goal-setting components and encouraging the active engagement of people throughout the entire goal-setting process. Together, these practices may facilitate the achievement of meaningful rehabilitation goals and improve rehabilitation outcomes for adults with health conditions.
