Abstrakt: This paper examines the utility of an occupation-focused assessment, Daily Experiences of Pleasure, Productivity, and Restoration Profile (PPR Profile), when providing services for people diagnosed with eating disorders. A descriptive case study methodology was used to analyze the experiences of seven participants at an intensive treatment day program. Participants completed the PPR Profile and reflected on its value. The findings include four themes: (1) honest completion requires assistance; (2) enhanced awareness is informative but poignant; (3) modifications are required to improve the use of the PPR Profile; (4) the use of the term "occupation" to refer to eating disorder behaviors.
