Play is considered the main occupation for children. Pediatric occupational therapists utilize play either for evaluation or intervention purpose. However, play is not properly measured by occupational therapists, and the use of play instrument is limited. This systematic review was aimed at identifying play instruments relevant to occupational therapy practice and its clinimetric properties. A systematic search was conducted on six databases (Academic Search Complete, CINAHL, MEDLINE, Psychology and Behavioral Science Collection, Scopus, and ASEAN Citation Index) in January 2020. The quality of the included studies was evaluated using Law and MacDermid’s Appraisal for Clinical Measurement Research Reports, and psychometric properties of play instruments were evaluated using Terwee’s checklist while the clinical utility is extracted from each instrument. Initial search identifies 1,098 articles, and only 30 articles were included in the final analysis, extracting 8 play instruments. These instruments were predominantly practiced in the Western culture, which consists of several psychometric evidences. The Revised Knox Preschool Play Scale is considered the most extensive and comprehensive play instrument for extrinsic aspect, whereas the Test of Playfulness + Test of Environmental Supportiveness Unifying Measure is a promising play instrument for intrinsic aspect on play, where both instruments utilize observation. My Child’s Play is a potential questionnaire-based play instrument. However, the current development of play instruments in the occupational therapy field is immature and constantly evolving, and occupational therapists should exercise good clinical reasoning when selecting a play instrument to use in practice.

“…The study hypothesis was analyzed using a 2 (sex) × 3 (time point) and 3 (day part) × 3 (time point) repeated measures ANOVA in SPSS 25. As no activity code could be noted when no students were present during a scan, when zeros were recorded for all 3 activity categories for one scan, that scan was treated as missing data (39). The statistical significance level was set a priori to α < 0.05.…”

Background: University students are prone to sedentary behavior (SB) which is associated with multiple negative health outcomes. Sit-stand desks may allow for a reduction of SB through standing bouts. To promote standing in university students, decisional cues might be a low-cost approach that can easily be implemented. Purpose: To investigate the effects of decisional cues on students' SB, standing, and active behavior. Method: Over 3 weeks, students were observed in a building on a German university campus, which provides sit-stand-desks in study areas, using an adapted version of the SOPLAY protocol. Baseline data was collected in the first week (T1), before posters and table plaques containing decisional cues were set up in the study areas. Effects were measured in the following 2 weeks (T2 and T3). Results: 2,809 (33% female) students were observed. Sitting decreased from 92.9% [SD = 14.9] to 84.5% [SD = 22.1] from T1 to T3 [ F (1, 141) = 15.6; p < 0.01; η 2 = 0.10]. Standing increased from 5.6% [SD = 13.5] to 10.9% [SD = 14.4] [ F (1, 141) = 9.0; p < 0.01; η 2 = 0.06] and being active from 1.5% [SD = 6.9] to 4.5% [SD = 14.8] from T1 to T3 [ F (1, 141) = 4.2; p < 0.05; η 2 = 0.03). Main effect analyses revealed more students standing in the afternoon compared to morning and lunchtime [ F (2, 140) = 3.2; p < 0.05; η 2 = 0.04). Discussion: Decisional cues could decrease students' SB and promote standing or being active as alternatives. Future research should use a more rigorous study design. The content of the decisional cues should be explored more and expanded to other health promotion areas on campus.

Fractal‐Dimension‐Based Walking Trajectory Analysis: A Case Study in Museum J. Armand Bombardier

A comprehensive understanding of the randomness, arbitrariness, and complexity of the visitors’ behavior and interaction in a museum is important because it is associated with the design. There is still uncertainty about how to characterize the visitors’ behavior and interaction. The fractal dimension was used in this study to indicate the geometrical form of the aged’s, the families’, and the students’ walking trajectories. The study results represented that all three sorts of the walking trajectory fractal-dimension-time curves fluctuated in the early stage. A remarkable exponential converges could then be observed. The mean fractal dimension after the convergence of the aged’s, the families’, and the students’ walking trajectory was nearly 1.8, 1.6, and 1.2, respectively. Furthermore, the behavior characteristics of these three sorts of visitors were quantified and the reasons were speculated and inferred. The comprehensive consideration of fractal geometry can aid in visitors’ behavior modeling and museum design.
