How do academics decide where to submit abstracts for conferences? What factors guide your choice? @OT_Expert @ClareTaylorBU @sarah_dzu_OT @StudentOTs

Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that there seem to be more female OT (Occupational Therapists) than male? After diving into some papers this afternoon, it feels like this might be a trend. Is this becoming the norm in the field? @ClareTaylorBU @OT_Expert @sarah_dzu_OT

In essence, this preference for negative feedback is often linked to a desire for self-improvement and a need to feel motivated by challenges, rather than being satisfied with praise that might feel superficial or undeserved.💭

Am I the only OT that worry that positive reinforcement could lead to complacency or a lack of motivation. I fear that being praised will me to stop striving for improvement, so negative feedback feels more energizing because it pushes me to keep working harder.

I’m unashamed to be a med student taking clozapine-an antipsychotic
Drs & med students can have severe mental illness
Clozapine changed my life for the better (despite its SEs) & means I can thrive & live healthily in the community

🥇todays special guest was Gregg Stevenson! Who won gold in the Paris 2024 Paralympics.
He gave an inspirational talk to our patients about the importance of rehabilitation and adapting your dreams after a life changing event 🥇🚣

Hmm. I found it quite limited to facilitating discharge. Very much ‘here’s a frame, have a walk, off you go’. Not much scope to develop OT skills.
