SCHOLARSHIP AGENDA

Dr. Hwang’s scholarship agenda spans discovery, application and teaching. As the program coordinator for the newly established OTD program, Dr. Hwang has been instrumental in curriculum development. His teaching interest includes OT theories, clinical assessments, research methodology and capstone projects. His research trajectory aims at occupation-based health promotion and lifestyle measurement. Dr. Hwang and Dr. Terry Peralta-Catipon developed and validated a set of lifestyle evaluation/intervention tools for older adults: Health Enhancement Lifestyle Profile (HELP) and Health Enhancement Lifestyle Profile - Screening Form (HELP-Screener), and Health Enhancement Lifestyle Profile (HELP) & HELP-Screener: Guide for Clinicians. These tools enable clinicians who work with older clients in community settings to screen and monitor the clients' varying occupational and lifestyle behaviors, implement healthy lifestyle interventions and develop community-based HELP programs. Noteworthily, scholars, researchers and clinicians in many countries have translated and culturally adapted the HELP tools into various language/cultural versions such as HELP-Spanish, HELP-Korean, HELP-Taiwanese, HELP-Thai, HELP-Turkish, and HELP-Japanese. A series of psychometric and clinical studies on the HELP tools can be found in several major occupational therapy journals. The following hyperlinks provides access to the three HELP clinical tools for practitioners, educators and researchers who are interested in using these tools.
