Hello Michelle: I'll be happy to try and distinguish the two:
The Canadian Model of Occupational Performance [CMOP] is the Canadian Assoc. of OT's [ www.caot.ca ] theoretical model about people, occupation, environment and the interaction between the three. It's a conceptual framework serving to explain HOW, WHY and WHAT OT does with regards to people having occupational performance deficits. The CMOP is fully explained in CAOT's book "Enabling Occupation: An Occupational Therapy Perspective". I highly recommend this book - it changed both my understanding and practice of OT! The Occupational Performance Process Model (OPPM) is part of the CMOP. However, the OPPM is not so much theory as it is application. The OPPM is a 7-step process outlining HOW to implement the CMOP. A basic representation of the OPPM follows (with some personal interpretation): 1. Name, validate and prioritize occupational performance issues 2. Select theoretical models for treatment 3. Identify components and environments contributing to issues 4. Identify strengths/resources 5. Determine long-term and short-term goals and treatment plan 6. Implement plan through enabling occupation treatment 7. Reassess OK, that the lesson for the day <grin>. If any of my students on the list read this, I'm sure they are also grinning! Hope this helps.
