Progressive Occupational Demand System: Doll Chair Assembly Task Comprehensive Kit

The Doll Chair Assembly Task (DCAT) Kit is part of the suite of products in the Progressive Occupational Demand (POD) System. The POD system allows the therapist to present the client with a just-right challenge, accomplished by providing varying degrees of difficulty and adding elements of distraction. This task focuses on the assembly of a meaningful object, a doll chair with three levels of complexity, and allows the use of concurrent auditory processing tasks (transcribing telephone messages) to be layered onto the assembly task. The opportunity to catch and correct errors is a crucial part of work capacity evaluation for people with brain impairment or other problems such as chronic pain that interferes with concentration and attention. This kit includes 12 Situational Assessment activities plus the DCAT Work Sample test described below.
