Supported Review Outcomes
The tool supports successful, mixed, blocked, avoided, and incomplete attempts as useful review data.
Limitations
Activation Review does not schedule activities by itself, produce unsupported mood scales, or make automated treatment recommendations.
Can I review an activity that was not completed?
Yes. Noncompletion, avoidance, and barriers can still inform the next planning decision.
Does the tool decide whether an activity worked?
No. It captures descriptive learning and next-step implications; clinical interpretation remains with the practitioner.
Can several activities be reviewed together?
Yes. Activity-set review can summarize a small set while keeping each activity identifiable.
What are the next-step implication options?
The review supports repeat, adapt, or replace implications when selected by the practitioner or client.
