Boston University hosted the prestigious 6th Occupational Therapy Summit of Scholars Symposium in June 2017. I-MAP was represented with three cutting edge scientific presentations.
- The Mackinac Center for Public Policy is pleased to announce that it is adding three new members to its Board of Scholars.This group of academics and business leaders supports and contributes to the Center’s mission of improving the quality of life in Michigan through high-quality, public policy research that promotes the benefits of free markets, limited government and the rule of law.
- (It was a pleasant feature of a recent year spent living in Morocco to find that almost everyone there, from pharmacists to cab drivers, had a basic grasp of what philosophy is, acquired from their high school days. In this country, in contrast, even well-educated people often have little idea of what philosophy actually consists.).
Sherrilene Classen, PhD, MPH, OTR/L, FAOTA, FGSA, presented interim findings from a Department of Defense funded effectiveness trial of a simulator-based occupational therapy driving intervention for combat veterans.

Driving The Future
Ms. Shabnam Medhizadah, a first year PhD student in the UF RSD Program, won third place in the national student poster competition. Ms. Medhizadah’s mentors on the project were Dr. Sherrilene Classen from the University of Florida and Dr. Andrew Johnson from the University of Western Ontario. Her poster entitled, “Constructing and Validating the Short Form Fitness-to-Drive Screening Measure,” focused on the development of the 32-item short form Fitness-to-Drive Screening Measure that identifies at-risk older drivers using caregiver responses. Exploratory factor analysis and classical test theory techniques were used to reduce the number of items in the tool from 54 to 32. Pearson’s r and receiver operating characteristics curve results indicated the tool had good predictive validity and could discriminate between drivers that passed or failed the on-road assessment. Congratulations Shabnam!
