“…Interventions including the use of time-geographical diaries [44] when collecting data may assist clients in becoming aware of the daily occupation patterns that may affect sleep. In terms of practical implications, occupational therapists may suggest the use of the OBQ11 together with time-use diaries for the setting of realistic and useful goals together with their clients.…”

Background: In occupational therapy, while several studies have focussed on occupational balance, few have investigated it in the context of sleep. Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between sleep and occupational balance among women. Material and methods: In total, 157 women responded to the Occupational Balance Questionnaire and Karolinska Sleep Questionnaire. Linear regression was used to analyse data. Results: The median score for occupational balance was 12 (interquartile range [IQR] 9), while that for sleep was 86 (IQR 16). Sleep and sleepiness fatigue were significantly associated (p < 0.1) with satisfaction with the number of occupations during a regular week. Difficulties awakening and snoring disorders were significantly associated (p < 0.1) with balance with physical, social, intellectual, and restful occupations. Conclusions: The majority of participants slept well and had a good sleep quality. There is an association between occupational balance and sleep. In particular, aspects related to the number of occupations, adequate time to perform them and the time spent recovering and sleeping were associated with good sleep quality. Balance among physical, social, intellectual, and restful occupations was associated with difficulties awakening and snoring. Significance: Our results support the need for occupational therapists to focus on occupational balance, to improve women's sleep.

“…Altered time-use patterns were also found among participants in vocational interventions according to the Individual Placement and Support model for people with mental illness [37]. Another study investigated alteration in parents' occupational patterns during an occupation-focused intervention aiming for reduced obesity among children [38].…”

Patterns of daily occupations (PDO) and occupational balance (OB) are recurring phenomena in the literature. Both are related with health and well-being, which makes them central in occupational therapy practice and occupational science. The aim was to review how PDO and OB are described in the literature, to propose a view of how the two constructs may be linked, and elaborate on how such a view may benefit occupational science and occupational therapy. The literature was analysed by latent and manifest content analysis and comparative analysis. The findings were summarized in a model, framing PDO as the more objective and OB as the more subjective result from an interaction between personal preferences and environmental influences. The proposed model does not assume a cause-effect relationship between the targeted constructs, rather a mutual influence and a joint reaction to influencing factors. Indicators of PDO and OB were identified, as well as tools for assessing PDO and OB. The authors propose that discerning PDO and OB as separate but interacting phenomena may be useful in developing a theoretical discourse in occupational science and enhancing occupational therapy practice. Although the scope of this study was limited, the proposed view may hopefully inspire further scrutiny of constructs.

“…Several researchers showed the efficacy of time-use interventions with different populations such as serious mental illness (Edgelow & Krupa, 2011), women with stress-related disorders (Erlandsson, 2013), and families (Orban et al, 2014). All of these interventions were designed as face-to-face; however, the Covid-19 pandemic period demonstrates to occupational therapy practitioners the importance of shifting interventions to telerehabilitation methods.…”

Background. Restrictions implemented to control the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic may lead to disruptions in occupational balance among university students. Purpose. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a web-based time-use intervention on the occupational balance of university students. Method. A total of 60 participants were randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups. The intervention group received eight sessions of web-based time management intervention, while the control group received a single-session web-based time management intervention. Pre-and post-intervention occupational balance of the participants was evaluated with Occupational Balance Questionnaire (OBQ). Findings. The eight-session intervention was more effective than the single-session intervention in improving OBQ total scores and all individual OBQ item scores except for “Having sufficient things to do during a regular week.” Implications. Occupational therapists can implement web-based time management interventions to promote the occupational balance of university students during the Covid-19 pandemic.
