Into which domain would you categorize skills like attention, memory, problem-solving, and social interaction during occupation?

Attention, memory, problem-solving, and social interaction describe how a person thinks, processes information, plans, and engages with others during tasks. In occupational therapy, these mental processes and interpersonal skills fit the perceptual/cognitive or social performance domain because they capture cognitive processing and social engagement that occur during occupation. They aren’t about physical capacity like how strong someone is, how much they can move a joint (ROM), or the forces related to gravity. So the best domain for categorizing these skills during occupation is perceptual/cognitive or social.
