The described exercise focuses on identifying and prioritizing an individual's values to guide person-centered planning. The CPRP Exam Blueprint (Domain IV: Assessment, Planning, and Outcomes) includes assessing personal values and preferences as part of readiness and goal-setting processes to ensure goals align with what matters most to the individual (Task IV.A.2: "Assess individual's stage of change and readiness for goal- setting"). Option D (values clarification activity) aligns with this, as the process of listing, ranking, and narrowing down important life aspects helps the individual clarify their core values (e.g., family, independence, creativity), which informs the development of meaningful rehabilitation goals.
Option A (functional assessment) evaluates skills and deficits, not values. Option B (overall rehabilitation goal selection) is a subsequent step that builds on clarified values. Option C (skills development programming) involves teaching specific abilities, not exploring values. The PRA Study Guide emphasizes values clarification as a key activity for aligning goals with personal priorities, supporting Option D.
