Abstract
Occupational therapy is ideally positioned to take the lead in improving the quality and accessibility of assistive technology services. There are two critical areas where it can assume leadership: (1) outcome measurement for assistive technology; (2) occupational science models for assistive technology. Impeding progress is the lack of adequate conceptual frameworks for stimulating research in these areas. This paper identifies the barriers to moving forward and proposes models for research to enhance the stature of occupational therapy within the field of assistive technology.
