WHAT IT FOUND

This is a concept analysis, not a clinical study.

It proposes a definition of professionalism for occupational therapists but reports no patients, outcomes, or tested interventions.

What this paper is

This is a concept analysis of the occupational therapy literature. It proposes a definition of professionalism and describes possible attributes, antecedents, and consequences. It does not study patients, therapists, or services in practice, so there is no clinical finding here to change what you do with a patient.
