Title should be typed in 14 font size and bolded, authors names, institutions and abstract should be typed in 12 font size, single-space, with the word limit of 1000. All margins are set at 2.54 cm. Times New Roman font should be used. Add a blank line between the tile and author s names, between authors names and their institutions, between institutions and abstract, and between abstract and key words. The tile, author s names, and institutions should be centralized. Please refer to the Sample Abstract for more details. 5. Research abstract should include the following sections: Background and Purpose, Methods, Results, and Conclusions, and these section headings should be bolded (please refer to the Sample Abstract). This format does not apply to case report and descriptive research. 6. Submissions including the Abstract and the Author s Basic Information Form (attached as the following) must be sent by corresponding authors via email. The subject should be noted by Abstract for conference presentation (sent by corresponding author: xxx) to the Chair Hua-Fang Liao. Submissions should be sent to E-mail: taiwansocietyicf@gmail.com. Responses will be received within 3 working days after submission. If not, please contact Ms. Tsai / Ms. Yang at 02-2249-0088 #1608, or email (taiwansocietyicf@gmail.com) for inquiry. Further information (such as presentation time and form) will be notified by email. For the abstract with incorrect format, notifications will be sent by email, and the authors can resubmit before the submission deadline. Accepted oral and poster submissions will be announced on March 10, 2012 on the website and by email.

The Hypothetic Models Based on ICF-CY in Infants and Toddlers with Motor Delays-with Mobility (d4) and Body Functions as the Outcomes Ai-Wen Hwang 1, Hua-Fang Liao 2, Li-Jen Weng 3, Wang-Tso Lee 4, Mei-Hui Tseng 5, Lu Lu 6 1 Graduate Institute of Early Intervention, College of Medicine, Chang Gung University 2 Institute of Physical Therapy, College of Medicine, National Taiwan University 3 Department and Graduate Institute of Psychology, National Taiwan University 4 Department of Pediatrics, National Taiwan University Hospital 5 School of Occupational Therapy, College of Medicine, National Taiwan University 6 Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, National Taiwan University Hospital Background and purpose: The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) has been officially published in 2001, and the ICF for Children and Youths (ICF-CY) was also published in 2007. The framework of ICF and ICF-CY contains five components: Health Condition, Body Functions and Structures (b, s), Activities and Participation (d), Environmental Factors (e), and Personal Factors. At conceptual level, the framework emphasized that the Body Functions (b) and Structures (s) and Activities and Participation (d) are the results of the interactions between Health Condition and Environmental Factors (e). The purpose of this study was to establish and test the hypothetical ICF-CY based models to explain the motor outcomes (d4 mobility in ICF-CY) in infants and toddlers with motor delay Methods: Systematic reviews were used to conduct and establish the hypothetical ICF-CY based models, and to identify the measures in ICF-CY components for predicting mobility in infants and toddlers with motor delay. A convenient sample of motor delayed infants and toddlers at age 6-24 months old (n=130) and their families from Northern Taiwan participated in the study. The measures included developmental tests and questionnaires which related to the following categories in ICF-CY components: (1) Motor Severity (Health Condition); (2) Body Functions (Muscle Power Functions (b730), Muscle Tone Functions (b735), Involuntary Movement Reaction Functions (b755),cognitive DQ (b163), Motivation (b130)); (3) Activities and Participation (The developmental ages of Stationary (d415) and Locomotion (d450-d469) subtests of Peabody Developmental Motor Scales 2nd Edition, and Scale score of Mobility (d450-469) subtest of Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory-Chinese Version); and (4) Environmental Factors (Motor Toys (e115), Learning Material (e130), Physical Home Environment Arrangement (e155), Responsivity and Involvement (e310), and Needs (e410)); (5) Personal factors: (Age). The data were analyzed with MacArthur mediation framework and multiple mediator model approach for three mediating paths: (1) Health Condition Environmental Factors Body Functions, (2) Heath Condition Environmental Factors Motor outcomes, (3) Health Condition Body Functions
Motor outcomes. Bootstrapping technique for avoiding the bias in small sample size and Bayesian multiple imputations for missing data were applied (alpha set at 0.10). Results: The derived ICF-CY models portrayed significant pathways among the ICF-CY categories. Motor Severity could predict Body Functions and Motor Outcomes. Most Body Function categories mediated the relationship between Health Condition and Motor outcomes. Needs (Environmental Factors) could be the mediators between Health Condition and child Motivation (Body Functions). Responsivity and Involvement and Learning Material could predict Cognitive function and the ability in Functional Mobility. Conclusion: The derived ICF-CY based models for Mobility (d4) provide a possible explanation for the motor outcomes of infants and toddlers with motor delay, supporting the ICF-CY as a framework for clinical decisions.
