“…All participants considered "interest, " "motivation, " and "compensation strategies, " but also a person's culture and the individual stress level of a person, to be important personal factors treated by occupational therapists. These results highlight the relation between personal factors and the client-centred approach, which is typical for occupational therapists work (McIntyre & Tempest, 2007;Rebeiro, 2000). Therefore, it could be most helpful for occupational therapists if the ICF also provides a classification of Personal Factors in the future.…”

“…Two papers [484,485] were comments on the spread of core sets and use of ICF framework for interpreting hand function outcomes. One paper [486] was included in the category 'other' reporting the validity and reliability of a questionnaire for the assessment of symptoms and functional limitations in low back pain.…”

Conclusions. The ICF contributed to the development of research on functioning and on disability in clinical, rehabilitation as well as in several other contexts, such as disability eligibility and employment. Diffusion of ICF research and use in a great variety of fields and scientific journals is a proof that a cultural change and a new conceptualisation of functioning and disability is happening.

“…Another way to facilitate the use of the ICF in clinical practice is the development of core sets. Core set is a standard selection of ICF components, domains and categories designed to cover the most common aspects of functioning and disability from a particular diagnosis (22,23).…”

The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is intended to provide a framework for practitioners. A client-centred ICF-based assessment (ICF-A) was developed to be used by occupational therapists in problem identification. The aim was to evaluate the ICF-based assessment (ICF-A) focusing on the examination of its utility on the basis of occupational therapists´ perspectives regarding clinical relevance and potential for implementation. Eleven occupational therapists, most of whom worked in hospitals, performed in total 99 ICF-A based assessments and completed three self-reported questionnaires related to the utility of the ICF-A, resulting in a total of 121 questionnaires.Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and directed content analysis. The results from this initial testing of ICF-A showed that its clinical relevance was considered low since ICF-A included too many categories. In addition, the time needed to perform the assessments decreased during the ten assessment occasions. Furthermore, concerning its implementation potential, the client-centred approach in the ICF-A was rated as weak. The target group did not benefit from using ICF-A in a hospital context. Hence, an investigation of its utility among occupational therapists in community and primary care will be the next step in the development of the ICF-A.
