Perceive, Recall, Plan and Perform- Assessment (PRPP-A )

Join us on our five-day Perceive, Recall, Plan and Perform Assessment Course (PRPP-A) course led by Associate Professor Chris Chapparo and Dr Judy Ranka, who are occupational therapists, researchers and educators with extensive national and international teaching experience.

WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?

Qualified Occupational Therapists

THE PERCEIVE RECALL PLAN & PERFORM SYSTEM OF TASK ANALYSIS (PRPP SYSTEM):

· The PRPP System is one of the Occupational Performance Model (Australia) assessment and intervention models. It comprises an assessment (PRPP Assessment) and an intervention (PRPP Intervention).

· The PRPP System focuses on how people USE cognition to achieve occupational performance goals. The PRPP System is applicable to people of all ages, from infancy to advanced age, irrespective of diagnosis, severity or chronicity.

ABOUT THE PRPP-A COURSE:

· The Perceive, Recall, Plan & Perform Assessment (PRPP-A) is a criterion referenced, strengths based approach that is person centred, culturally responsive and evidence based. It is administered in two stages.

· Stage One Task Performance Mastery assesses occupational performance mastery; that is, how well occupations are performed.

· Stage Two Cognitive Strategy Application identifies reasons for task performance mistakes.

· An information processing model of cognition underpins the structure of Stage Two where processing operations have been operationalised as cognitive strategy use behaviours.

· These behaviours align with dimensions of attention and sensory processing (Perceive), learning and memory (Recall), planning, problem solving and self-appraisal (Plan), and initiation of responses and action monitoring (Perform).

· Stage Two yields information about effective and ineffective strategy application impacting occupational performance mastery.

· The PRPP-A is used internationally and has been translated into several languages. It has established validity in a variety of practice domains. Acceptable reliability has been demonstrated following training.

ABOUT THE PRESENTERS

The course will be taught by Associate Professor Chris Chapparo and Dr. Judy Ranka who are occupational therapists, researchers and educators with extensive national and international teaching experience.

COURSE OBJECTIVES: Participants will be able to:

1. Describe the occupational therapy, neurosciences and educational foundation of the assessment, and its psychometric properties.

2. Assess and score task performance mastery from videotaped examples using Stage One of the PRPP Assessment.

3. Assess and score cognitive strategy application behaviours applied to tasks on dimensions of perceive, recall, plan and perform from videotaped examples using Stage Two of the PRPP Assessment. Write specific, measurable mastery and strategy application goals from information gained through assessment.

4. Use the PRPP Assessment as a person centred outcome measure of occupational performance.

5. Relate findings from assessment to implications for intervention.
