What It Measures

The Modified Interest Checklist is a free Model of Human Occupation (MOHO) resource that assesses in 68 activities. It examines a participant's level of interest in the last 10 years, in the last year, and asks if an individual individual currently participates in an activity, or if they want to pursue it in the future. The activities addressed consist of social and leisure activities covering hobbies, fitness activities, and topics.

This assessment is standardized for both adolescents and adults and is available for free on the MOHO-IRM website. The checklist was modified to cover more current leisure activities in 1983, however all activities remain relevant today, with most being something both adolescents and adults would show interest in.
