Abstract

This study aimed to test the usefulness of Positive Occupation-Based Practice (POBP) by applying the Engagement Estimation System (EES), which can assess participation in occupations that promote well-being on a five-level rank point scale. The method was implemented through POBP, with EES applied to two individuals with mental illness for 3 months. The intervention content supported both the learning of positive occupations appropriate to the client's condition from the results of the EES and making them a habit in their daily life. The results showed therapeutic effects on the two clients in terms of positive emotions and mental stability. This suggests that this practice has the potential to apply EES to POBP based on its positive impact on clients.
