文字方塊: 姓名：Ching-Lin Hsieh 現職職稱：Professor 現職單位：School of Occupational Therapy, National Taiwan University EDUCATION AND POSITIONS HELD: Education: 1994 Ph.D. Degree in Sociology, University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia 1991 M.S. Degree in Occupational Therapy, Western Michigan University, Michigan, USA 1988 B.S. Degree in Occupational Therapy, National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan Positions held: Academic positions National Taiwan University 2003-present: Professor, School of Occupational Therapy 2001-2007: Chairperson, School of Occupational Therapy Non-academic positions National Taiwan University Hospital 1994-present Occupational Therapist HONORS: Endeavor Research Fellowship, Australia, 2009 Outstanding Occupational Therapist, Taipei Association of Occupational Therapists, 2004 RESEARCH INTERESTS: The focus of my research is on developing a computerized adaptive testing (CAT) system of functional performance for patients with stroke. The CAT measurement system is used to help clinicians and researchers administer assessments in efficient and precise fashions. Recently, I have constructed two CATs (balance and motor) which can be accessed at http://140.112.116.44/cat/ I have maintained a consistent interest in psychometrics and outcome measurements related to clinical research for patients with stroke. My long-term research goal is to develop a clinical excellence model to improve the effectiveness of occupational therapy for patients with stroke. SELECTED PUBLICATIONS: 1.
