Abstract
PURPOSE: The purpose of this article is to suggest how Talking Mats can be used in accordance with the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) proposed by the World Health Organisation (WHO) when setting intervention goals. METHOD: A theoretical framework for using Talking Mats when setting intervention goals in accordance with the ICF is provided. CONCLUSIONS: An international system such as the ICF offers a conceptual framework that can be used to set appropriate goals for intervention. Talking Mats on the other hand can be seen as the strategy through which individuals can be empowered to participate in this goal-setting activity.
