Exploring occupational transitions of Syrian refugee youth to Canada
Introduction Since 2015, nearly 45,000 Syrian refugees who fled the civil war have resettled in Canada. This forced migration can present significant disruptions for Syrian refugees’ everyday lives. Refugee youth may experience distinct changes in their occupations and roles, such as schooling and caring for family.

Diferenças e semelhanças nos repertórios ocupacionais de crianças brasileiras e canadenses
Introdução: Muitos modelos de ocupação humana são baseados na noção de que ambientes ou contextos influenciam o desempenho ocupacional e o engajamento. Por extensão, pode-se considerar que os contextos moldam as ocupações em que as crianças se envolvem, impactando o desenvolvimento de seus repertórios ocupacionais. Objetivo: Este artigo relata a análise secundária de dados de dois estudos paralelos que examinaram a influência do contexto nos padr…
Differences and similarities in the occupational repertoires of children from Brazil and Canada
Introduction: Many models of human occupation are predicated on the notion that environments or contexts influence occupational performance and engagement. By extension, it can be considered that contexts shape the occupations in which children engage, impacting the development of their occupational repertoires. Purpose: This paper reports the secondary analysis of data from two parallel studies that examined the influence of context on the activ…
Living in a Blended World
The many contexts in which children grow and learn shape their occupational development. While developing their occupational repertoires, children of immigrant parents grow up within a dual-cultured context—a context comprised of both their family's heritage culture and the culture of their new receiving country. Limited research has examined how cultural contexts shape the occupational repertoire of children of immigrant parents. This study expl…
Occupational Development
Although child development has been examined by various disciplines for over a century, very little is known specifically about how children's occupations develop over time. In order to begin to address this significant gap in the literature, an exploratory qualitative study was conducted to examine children's doings. Twelve in‐depth, semi‐structured interviews were conducted with members of six families: eight girls aged 6 to 12, and six parents…
Children's Occupations in Context
Typically, the concepts occupation and children are not put together; however, children are always busy doing, in other words, occupationally engaged. While it is generally accepted that adult occupations are the result of the interaction between person and environment, it is held that children's developmental levels, in interaction with their immediate environments, determine their occupations. The impact of broad contextual factors, including s…
