abstract="OBJECTIVE: We determined the feasibility and effects of the Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance (CO-OP) Approach<sup>TM</sup> on activity performance and satisfaction, symptoms, and mood of adolescents with persistent postconcussion symptoms. <br><br>METHOD: In a prospective case series, 3 participants with persistent symptoms 3 mo after concussion and difficulties resuming activities were taught to use a metacognitive strategy (Goal-Plan-Do-Check) to work toward occupation-based goals in a 7-wk intervention (10 sessions, 30-60 min each). Participants were assessed pre- and postintervention and at 3-mo follow-up. Feasibility was determined by positive changes on study measures, ease of administration, and acceptability to participants. <br><br>RESULTS: Clinically significant, positive changes were found in participants' activity performance and satisfaction. All participants had decreases in symptoms and improved mood scores at posttest. <br><br>CONCLUSION: The CO-OP Approach to rehabilitation for youth postconcussion is feasible and may make a positive contribution to recovery.<br><br>Copyright © 2019 by the American Occupational Therapy Association, Inc.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
