The purpose of this research was to determine if significant relationships exist between primary preferred therapeutic modes utilized and the number of years of experience in the field of occupational therapy and current practice setting. A second objective was to seek if there is a common, natural progression of therapeutic modes occupational therapists progress through over the course of their occupational therapy careers, and lastly to establish the primary preferred therapeutic mode utilized by entry-level, intermediate-level, and advanced-level occupational therapists (OT).
