  • Foundation in Occupational Therapy 2: Model of Human Occupation

    The Model of Human Occupation (MOHO) was developed by Gary Kielhofner in the 1980s. It is based on the theoretical perspective that a person's characteristics and the environment interact in a dynamic system. The model views occupation as reflecting this interaction and influencing a person's participation and adaptation. It describes how humans generate and modify occupations through their interaction with the environment in a cycle of input, throughput, output, and feedback. Occupational function is based on exploration, competency and achievement, while dysfunction is characterized by inefficiency, incompetence and helplessness. The model guides occupational therapists to remediate dysfunction through assessment, goal-setting and intervention according to an individual's needs.
