Abstract

This study described the perspectives of school-based occupational therapists working with problem-solving teams in response to intervention (RtI) initiatives. Ten therapists were interviewed about their participation in RtI. Data analysis revealed four major themes: (1) “They Don't Really Know What I Do”; (2) “Can You Take a Quick Look at this Kid?”; (3) “What Does It Really Look Like?”; and (4) “Where is Participation Inhibited?” The results of this study suggest that occupational therapists need to advocate for an expanded role in school-based practice in order to fully contribute to problem-solving teams in RtI.
