Comments:
The article provides comprehensive information about how equine assisted activities can be used to help children with ASD recover their functional performance. The strengths and weaknesses of the article are also documented. The article also relates the research with occupational therapy. The paper, on the other hand, reviews the article and provides a guide on how the knowledge learned in the paper can be used in occupational therapy practice. However, the paper provides misleading information which is contrary to what is reported in the study. Some of the misleading information entails participant who dropped out and the number of participants. The percentage drop out is above 20%, and the total number of participants is 24 and not 34 as reported in the paper. There are also numerous grammar and formatting errors.
