The role assumed by occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants during the first year of practice was delineated as part of an examination development project. The methods used to collect and analyze data obtained from several hundred therapists, assistants, and supervisors are described. A section of the results is presented to illustrate the differences and similarities found between the two levels of personnel.
