Model of Human Occupation (MOHO)

The Model of Human Occupation (MOHO) is a framework used to understand how individuals engage in daily activities, or "occupations," that are meaningful to them. It emphasizes the connection between a person's motivation, abilities, and the environment. MOHO identifies three key elements: volition (what motivates people), habituation (the routines and roles in their lives), and performance capacity (their physical and mental abilities). By considering these elements, therapists and practitioners can better support individuals in improving their engagement in daily life, promoting overall health and well-being.
