Motor Control
In 2004, this model was the second most used frame of reference in the U.S., focusing on the restoration of skilled voluntary movement for individuals with developmental or acquired neurological conditions.
What is the Neurodevelopmental Therapy or Treatment (NDT)?
What is learning theory?
how environmental cues affect motor responses; guidelines for reinforcing desired movement; encompasses both initial motor development and the acquisition process, including perception, cognition, and action
The focus of biomechanical FOR is ___________, or restoring functional skills.
What is remediation?
These three concepts are the focus of the Rehabilitative FOR.
What are adaptation, compensation, and modification?
This FOR was heavily influenced by which three psychologists?
Who are Piaget, Erickson, and Levinson?
According to NDT, this is not a major component of the model since change can occur without intentional effort from the client.
What is motivation?
What are the main interventions in motor learning?
Weight bearing, constraint-induced movement, cognitive orientation to occupational performance
When using biomecanical FOR, OTs apply the laws of this discipline to human movement.
What is physics?
A sock aid, Long Handled Reacher, and dressing stick are all examples of ___________ ___________ and are commonly used with the Rehabilitative FOR.
What is "Adaptive Equipment"?
Mastery of skills typically expected at that stage of development is compared to __________.
What is chronological age?
This technique in NDT involves the therapist placing their hands on points of control to inhibit abnormal movement and promote normal movement.
What is placement or handling?
What are ways to support motor learning?
Staying client centered, using the natural environment, and using contextual interference
In the biomechanical FOR, ______, ________, and _________ increase with repetition and practice?
What are Strength, Endurance, and ROM?
Educating an OT client to buy 2 half gallons of milk instead of 1 gallon to make it easier to carry is an example of what type of strategy?
What is activity adaptation?
Developmental FOR posits that development is _______, or that skills must develop in _________.
What is "linear" and "Sequence"?
In NDT, this term describes the ability to perform voluntary skilled movements necessary for everyday life.
What is functional motor control?
What's an example of associative learning?
Procedural learning or declarative learning
This device is often used with Biomechanical FOR to assess grip strength.
What is a dynamometer?
Teaching these strategies to your OT clients allow the clients to still complete the activity, but in a different manner than previously completed.
What are Compensatory Strategies?
Developmental FOR guides intervention to have the _______ challenge to facilitate development of next skills in sequence.
What is "just right"?
NDT is commonly used with individuals who have these diagnoses.
What is a CVA/stroke or cerebral palsy (CP)?
Evaluation is conducted in ____ settings.
What is "natural" settings?
This instrument is often used to assess range of motion (ROM) in OT clients.
What is a goniometer?
This OT is given credit more recently for the Rehabilitative FOR.
Who is Trombly?
These screens and assessments are commonly used with developmental FOR.
What are the Denver Developmental Screening, the Peabody Development Motor Scales, Bruininks-Oserestsky Test of Motor Development, Beery Visual Motor Integration, Pediatric Evaluation of Disability, Bayley Scales of Infant Development, Alberta Infant Motor Scales and Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales?
