1 +An objective is a kind of state ("participation in an activity can be viewed as a kind of state"). OB08 does not seem to be an objective, which could be that the PwD remembers to take medication, etc., or just that the PwD will perform these activities. Similarly for OB10: aiding in itself is not an objective (you aid for some purpose/obective)
