Abstract

This discussion about the use of the expression Vulnerability in Occupational Therapy academic works approaches two trends.
The first one points out the need of establishing criteria and elaborating on its conceptual use for Occupational Therapy interventions,
not aiming at terminological unification, but for establishing discriminations and recognizing its diversity. The second one examines thoroughly
the concept of Vulnerability and establishes some qualifications about its use um Occupational Therapy specialized literature.
