Study Notes
Leisure Ability Model (LAM) Overview
- LAM is a popular therapeutic recreation (TR) model, influential since the 1970s
- It's a philosophical foundation, based on the idea that everyone needs, wants, and deserves leisure
- LAM supports clients in overcoming barriers to leisure, empowering them to independently enjoy leisure activities
- It features a linear progression through three content areas: functional intervention, leisure education, and recreation participation
Key Components of LAM
- Functional Intervention: Focuses on improving a client's physical, social, and cognitive abilities to support their leisure participation
- Leisure Education: Aims to enhance clients' knowledge of leisure resources, leisure attitudes, and related activities
- Recreation Participation: Involves structured programs that allow clients to engage in leisure activities, build leisure skills, and experience enjoyment
LAM's Application
- Can be used with diverse client populations, adaptable to varying needs
- Useful for clients with intellectual and developmental disabilities, as well as incarcerated individuals, due to its capacity to be adapted to various situations
- A strong point is that it is straightforward for TR professionals to implement.
Strengths and Weaknesses of LAM
- Strengths: Widely applicable to various client populations and is easily adapted to individual needs; straightforward to use, with clearly defined content areas.
- Weaknesses: Could use a more robust theoretical foundation; professionals may only work on one content area at a time, potential lack of attention to diverse cultural and individual backgrounds.
