If you apply the Kawa model to any client you consider the idea of viewing life as a river? if this is so how would you see the following patterns of life;
- What will be a drought in someone's life be like?
- When the river is flowing, it flows with different waves, how the waves differ to each other in terms of life circumstances, if life is viewed as a river?
- If someone's life is seen a flood, what type of life are they living?
- If you had to choose between two types of rivers would you rather be a forceful rapid or meandering stream?
Each person will have different answers, but they will close to each other, now if you really understand the above questions, what do you think influences the person's performance?
My belief is that people are not free, they are being restricted, controlled or limited on what to use or do within their context. Since people are not free from their environment my mission is to get them free from the rocks (barriers/ life circumstance) in order for their river to flow into the same direction and be able to do all tasks within the entire environment.
To answer the above question, the person's motive to their performance is their environment.
Here the two models converge; the Kawa model and Ecology of Human Performance model(EHP). The Kawa model focus on removing rocks from the persons river, note that rocks are found within the environment and the (EPH) focus on changing the the temporal environment which inhibits the person from doing their required tasks.
In conclusion the two models focus on changing the environment as part of the intervention, but they have different aspects.
