Which term describes the process of modifying an activity to fit the participant's needs?

• A. Intervention
• B. Adaptation
• C. Progress note
• D. Group

Answer: (B)

Adjusting an activity to fit a participant's needs focuses on making participation accessible by changing how the activity is done. This is an adaptation. It can involve changing rules, equipment, pacing, or the environment so the person can engage safely and with meaning, while still aiming for the same activity goals. For example, turning a standing game into a seated version, using a larger or softer ball, or providing extra time or cues. This contrasts with an intervention, which is a broader plan to address a problem or target a behavior, a progress note, which is just documenting what happened and how the participant responded, or a group, which refers to multiple participants participating together rather than the act of modifying the activity.
