Abstract
In response to the developments in technology relevant to occupational therapy and the provision by the Department of Trade and Industry of microcomputers for evaluation, it was decided that current use should be investigated in order to facilitate planning for student training. A localized study, centred in south-eastern Scotland, was carried out by Clephane Hume and Mora Reid in November last year, when the first DTI computers had been placed in Scotland. This report discusses the factors hindering development, and lists the present and potential applications of microcomputers as shown by the study. It concludes that the therapist of the future must be aware of the therapeutic potential of the microcomputer.
