Date Presented 03/27/20 This presentation will describe a novel educational intervention, a peer-led skills practical examination, to facilitate student learning of psychosocial interventions. We will also describe the results of a small, quasi-experimental study that investigates students’ self-perceived confidence and knowledge before and after this educational intervention. Primary Author and Speaker: Jaclyn Schwartz Additional Authors and Speakers: Eric Bencomo, Lauren Davis, Daniel del Campo, Rachel Pearson

Date Presented 03/27/20 This research poster describes a randomized controlled trial evaluating the effectiveness of a manualized OT intervention for improving medication management in a primary-care setting. Implications for research and clinical practice are discussed. Primary Author and Speaker: Traci Garrison Additional Authors and Speakers: Jaclyn Schwartz Contributing Authors: Elizabeth Moore, Todd Daniel

Date Presented 03/28/20 This presentation will describe a novel assistive technology intervention: customized pillboxes. We will also describe the results of a small, randomized controlled trial that compares medication adherence and device satisfaction across the three study arms: (1) standard pillboxes, (2) individualized store-bought pillboxes, and (3) 3-D printed pillboxes. Primary Author and Speaker: Jaclyn Schwartz Additional Authors and Speakers: Yaritza Caceres, Ana Centeno, Vanessa Cruz, Jessyka Gutierrez, Nicte Orozco

Date Presented 03/28/20 People with disabilities often cannot participate in the community due to barriers in the community environment.

Date Presented 04/06/19 Adults with autism experience significant health disparities, including higher rates of chronic disease, less access to health services, and younger mortality rates. In this research project, we used qualitative methods to interview adults with autism, their caregivers, and their healthcare providers to develop an understanding of why these health disparities occur and to guide future intervention work.

Date Presented 4/20/2018 We used a mixed methods approach to explore the experiences of college students with chronic health conditions. Students demonstrated poor performance of self-management occupations, which limited their health and functional outcomes. Occupational therapy’s role in primary care for college students is discussed. Primary Author and Speaker: Jaclyn Schwartz Contributing Authors: Erin Reimer, Emily Slayton, Lori Karlin

Date Presented 4/21/2018 This quasi-experimental study evaluated the acceptability and safety of a customized 3D-printed assistive technology intervention. Participants reported improvements in satisfaction and medication adherence with the 3D-printed device, demonstrating feasibility for future research.
