β¦ Synopsis
Active participation in daily occupations is one of the primary concepts of occupational therapy. In this study, 60 subjects' affective experiences in their daily occupation were compared with their subjective well-being measures. It was found that the subjects' occupational affective experiences related significantly to their well-being measures, especially those focusing on the affective aspect. The percentage of happy experiences was the best predictor of well-being measures.
Active participation had a significant effect on people's well-being, but its effect on daily occupational affective experience was not so remarkable. Implications of these results for occupational therapy are discussed.
