ACS3 - Activity Participation Assessment
The evidence-based digital assessment trusted by healthcare professionals to measure daily activity participation.
ACS3 is the digital evolution of the Activity Card Sort, bringing Dr. Carolyn Baum’s 30+ years of validated methodology into a flexible, accessible platform. Occupational therapists, researchers, and educators use ACS3 to measure participation across instrumental, leisure, fitness, and social activities, with instant scoring, client-centered goal setting, and integrated PROMIS health measures.
What It Does:
- Measures current and previous activity participation across four life domains
- Identifies client priorities and barriers for personalized treatment planning
- Tracks participation changes over time with visual dashboards
- Integrates PROMIS-29 and Global Health questionnaires for comprehensive assessment
What Uses It:
- Occupational therapists in rehabilitation and community settings
- Clinical researchers studying activity patterns and intervention effectiveness
- Educators training students in evidence-based participation assessment
The Science:
The original Activity Card Sort demonstrated strong psychometric properties, including internal consistency and test-retest reliability, and has been used in over 100 published studies worldwide. The digital ACS3 maintains this strong psychometric foundation with parallel forms reliability (Spearman's rho ≥ .836) and validation across diverse populations including stroke survivors, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis, and community-dwelling adults. Validation results published in American Journal of Occupational Therapy and Occupational Therapy Journal of Research.

GEMINI - Digital Health Research Platform
A turnkey solution for conducting patient-centered digital health studies efficiently and cost-effectively.
GEMINI is designed by researchers for researchers, eliminating the burden of custom technology development. With over 20 years of digital health research expertise built into its framework, GEMINI enables you to launch sophisticated intervention studies in days or weeks instead of months or even over a year — saving $100,000+ in development costs and hundreds of staff hours per study while maintaining the highest standards of scientific rigor.
What It Does:
- Delivers customizable intervention curriculum through digital multimedia courses
- Collects comprehensive participant data through built-in questionnaires and ePROs
- Supports digital medical group visits
- Engages participants through optional community features and gamification
- Provides real-time data dashboards and CSV exports for analysis
What Uses It:
- Behavioral health researchers conducting psychosocial intervention studies
- Clinical researchers testing digital therapeutic approaches
- Public health researchers studying health behavior change
The Science:
GEMINI's framework is informed by dozens of NIH and CDC-funded digital health studies conducted over 20+ years. The platform architecture incorporates evidence-based principles of user-centered design, participant engagement, and intervention delivery tested across thousands of research participants in numerous studies. The usability and usefulness evaluation demonstrated high System Usability Scale score (98.13), high usefulness score (4.86/5.0), and high Technology Acceptance Model score (6.83/7.0).
GEMINI was developed through SBIR grants to BrightOutcome funded by the National Center For Complementary and Alternative Medicine (R43AT010460 and R44AT012302).
