JENNIFER A. PIATT, Ph. D., CTRS

Assistant Professor Office: 812.855.7819 School of Public Health email: [email protected] Indiana University, Bloomington 1025 E. Seventh Street, Bloomington, IN 47405-7109 RESEARCH INTERESTS ____________________________________________________ My work focuses on addressing clinical outcomes for adults and children with disabling conditions within community-based rehabilitation. I use research in recreational therapy (RT) as a public health initiative to better understand how different interventions can address secondary health conditions, improve health outcomes, and decrease health care costs. My research is grounded in the World Health Organization’s International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). As a bio-psycho-social model the ICF provides a conceptual framework that examines health within a variety of contexts, including personal and environmental factors, body functions and structure, as well as activity and participation. Utilizing both qualitative and quantitative methods I examine how human behavior impacts participation. My overarching goal is to better understand what type of public health initiatives within the realm of RT have a positive impact on health outcomes among adults and children with disabling conditions within community-based rehabilitation settings.
