Usefulness of the Model of Human Occupation in the Hong Kong Chinese Context

Abstract

Questions have been raised about the applicability of Western theory in an Eastern context. Two case studies are used to illustrate how the Model of Human Occupation (MOHO) is useful in problem identification and intervention planning in Hong Kong. The cases illustrate that MOHO provides useful insights to how Chinese culture influences participation of persons with disabilities.
