Occupational Functioning Model & Task-Oriented Approach
What is the focus of the Occupational Functioning Model?
Building abilities and skills through sensory experiences that are meaningful and connected to occupation.
What is Neural Plasticity?
Neural connections become more efficient
What are the 4 principles of intervention in MRP?
1. Oral instruction
2. Visual Demonstration
3. Manual Guidance
4. Accurate and Timely Feedback
What are motor learning and behavior strongly influenced by?
What is behavior
The things we can observe
What are the 5 principles in the Task Oriented Approach?
1. Client-centered
2. Occupation-Based
3. Person and Environment
4. Practice and Feedback
5. Treatment Goals
How learning is measured in the Motor Learning Theory?
It is not measured, it is inferred from behavior
What is Oral Instruction?
Verbal instruction for what to do
How are therapeutic activities designed?
With specific attention to deficits in tactile, proprioception, and vestibular functioning
What is the goal?
The ability for an individual to produce responses that match the demands and expectations of the environment
What is important regarding context the Occupation-Based Principle in the Task Oriented Approach?
One occupation needs to be practiced in many different contexts to prepare for variability.
What is Learning in the Motor Learning Theory
A process of acquiring the capability for skilled action
Observe the task and find the missing components for task performance and then practice those skills
What are the sensations in the primary level of ASI?
Vestibular, touch, and proprioception
What are they trying to prevent within clients
Over or under responding the occupational challenges
What are the treatment goals of the task-oriented approach?
1. Discover optimal movement patterns to perform the task
2. Flexibility, efficiency, and effectiveness in task performance
3. Practicing skills in varying natural environments
4. Develop problem solving skills to identify their own solutions
What does Learning Provide in the Motor Learning Theory?
Relatively permanent changes in behavior
To elicit a specific motor response pattern
What should interventions engage within the client?
Inner drive to learn and develop skills
What is Habituation
The ability to adapt to constant repeated sensory stimuli
What population was the Occupational Functioning Model developed for?
Person's with Physical Disabilities
What is learning result from in the Motor Learning Theory?
Experience or Practice
What is Accurate and Timely Feedback?
Feedback should be used to reinforce improvements in performance (effort is not improvement therefore it should not get the same feedback)
What needs to be connected to the sensory processing therapy when applied in practice?
What is Sensitization?
An increase in neural response to a stimulus because it is new, potentially important, or may be dangerous
