Independence in ADLs
More focus on fitting in a group
It is an approach used in occupational therapy to assess how individuals perform tasks in real-life settings, focusing on the interaction between the person, task, and environment.
Dynamic Performance Analysis
It is a real-time, observational method that allows OTs to analyze the ongoing, adaptable nature of task performance and identify specific challenges in completing activities.

What are the ADL and IADLs Assessment?
Assessment of Motor and Process Skills (AMPS)
Hawaii Early Learning Profile (HELP)
Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory (PEDI)
School Function Assessment (SFA)
Weefim
- ADLs Assessed:
Self-Care Tasks: These include grooming, dressing, bathing, and eating. For example, during the assessment, a child may be observed brushing their teeth or getting dressed. - IADLs Assessed:
Functional Activities: This can include tasks like meal preparation or managing personal belongings (e.g., packing a backpack).
Assessment of Motor and Process Skills (AMPS)
- ADLs Assessed:
Self-Care: Tasks include feeding, dressing, toileting, and grooming. The assessment looks at the child’s ability to perform these tasks independently or with assistance. - IADLs Assessed:
While HELP is more focused on foundational skills, it considers some IADLS indirectly by evaluating children’s interaction with their environment and caregivers, which can affect their participation in family routines.
Hawaii Early Learning Profile (HELP)
- ADLs Assessed:
Self-Care Skills: The PEDI evaluates a variety of self-care tasks, including:
o Eating: The child’s ability to feed themselves.
o Grooming: Skills related to brushing teeth, hair, and general personal hygiene.
o Bathing: The capacity to wash and bathe independently.
o Dressing: Includes dressing upper and lower body.
o Toileting: Management of toilet use, including hygiene.
School Function Assessment (SFA)
It is a standardized tool used to assess functional independence in children aged 6 months to 7 years.
WeeFIM
It evaluates a child’s performance in various self-care, mobility, and cognitive activities of daily living (ADLs).
WeeFIM
It uses a 7-point scale to rate independence levels, with scores indicating the level of assistance required to perform each task.
WeeFIM
It is widely used as a non-standardized assessment tool designed to evaluate the development of children from birth to 6 years of age
Hawaii Early Learning Profile
It is a comprehensive tool which gathers the ability of students with disabilities to participate in general, daily, school based functional activities and was designed for primary school children, aged 4-12 years old.
School Function Assessment (SFA)
What scale in the WeeFIM where the child performs all parts of the task independently, safely, and within a reasonable amount of time.
7 Complete Independence
What scale in the WeeFIM where the child performs the task independently but requires extra time, adaptive equipment, or techniques.
6 modified independence
