Card preview (24)

#1
Front (Question)

Define regulatory environmental conditions

Back (Answer)

The features of the environment to which the mvmt must mold -> Learner must match spatial and temporal characteristics

#2
Front (Question)

Define non-regulatory environmental conditions

Back (Answer)

The irrelevant background features that are unnecessary for goal attainment -> Pts must learn to ignore these elements

#3
Front (Question)

Define stationary

Back (Answer)

Environment or terrain or support surface is fixed and objects or people are stationary

#4
Front (Question)

Define motion

Back (Answer)

environment or terrain or support surface, objects or other people are in motion

#5
Front (Question)

Stationary vs Motion and significance for learner

Back (Answer)

Stationary learner is able to decide when mvmt starts and stops and for how long, but in motion, the performer has to match the spatial and temporal characteristics and interpolate or extrapolate information from it

#6
Front (Question)

What is the difference between absent and present inter-trial varaibility

Back (Answer)

When it is present, the regulatory conditions will change, rather than stay the same, from one performance to the next

#7
Front (Question)

What is true of inter-trial variability for the learner

Back (Answer)

When present, it results in more variable movements and requires a lot of attention and problem solving Absent there is no need to monitor the environment

#8
Front (Question)

Define closed tasks

Back (Answer)

object(s) or environment is/are stationary and do/does not change from trial to trial

#9
Front (Question)

Define open tasks

Back (Answer)

Object(s) or environment is/are in motion and conditions change during this trial &/or upon the next trials

#10
Front (Question)

What are the two types of body orientation that can be present

Back (Answer)

Stabilization Transportation

#11
Front (Question)

What is body orientation- stabilization

Back (Answer)

Info processing demands low and boundaries of environment are fixed to an area surrounding the performer

#12
Front (Question)

What is body orientation - transportatoin

Back (Answer)

Info processing demands high bc boundaries of regulatory environment are constantly expanding in accord w/rate of motion

#13
Front (Question)

What is the manipulation of objects (absent v present)

Back (Answer)

Absent - UEs/hands are linked (“yoked”) to postural system thru use of AD or equip rxn Present - UEs/hands free from postural system (ie. carrying glass of water or reading a flier while walking)

#14
Front (Question)

What can we do to practically apply the taxonomy of tasks?

Back (Answer)

• Use it as a guide for eval and intervention - Select functionally appropriate activities along the chart

#15
Front (Question)

What are some examples of: Closed, body stability

Back (Answer)

• Stand on level floor • Sit on chair • SL • Lean against wall

#16
Front (Question)

What are some examples of: Closed, body stability plus manipulation

Back (Answer)

• Standing & turn off faucet - Sitting & reach for a plate

#17
Front (Question)

What are some examples of: Closed, body transport

Back (Answer)

• Walking in own home • Crawling on floor • WC propel in isolated hall

#18
Front (Question)

What are some examples of: Closed, body transport plus manipulation

Back (Answer)

• Wiping a dish as walk in own kitchen • Setting table • Vacuuming • Bowling in a empty bowling alley

#19
Front (Question)

What are some examples of: Inter-trial variability, body stability

Back (Answer)

• Sitting on different chairs • Standing on various surfaces • Standing w/various ADs

#20
Front (Question)

What are some examples of: Inter-trial variability, body stability plus manipulation

Back (Answer)

• Picking up various glasses - Standing and throwing different balls

#21

What are some examples of: Inter-trial variability, body transport

Back (Answer)

• walking over various cracks in sidewalk - Walking around a messy house

#22
Front (Question)

What are some examples of: Inter-trial variability, body transport plus manipulation

#24
