Term
What is the focus of the Motor Contol Model?
Definition
The focus is on the ability to use one's body effectively during occupational performance.
Term
The Motor Control Model focuses on?
Definition
generating/coordinating movement patterns and maintaining balance.
Term
Why are Motor Control Treatment approaches referred to as Neurodevelopmental Approaches?
Definition
Because they emphasize the developmental nature of the Nervous System.  Motor Control Treatment approaches address problems due to CNS damage
Term
Name the people who contributed theory to the Motor Control Model.
Definition

Rood's approach

Bobaths' NDT

Brunnstrom's movement therapy

PNF

Term
In contrast to the traditional motor control approaches, what does the contemporary motor control approach reflect?
Definition
Newer conceptualizations as to how motor control is achieved
Term
What were the concepts of the early traditional motor control theory?
Definition
It said that reflexes were brought about through combining reflexes, said movements were controlled from the top down (hierarchical control), said motor program or a central pattern generator follows a motor program or a set of instructions, said motor control developed cephalocaudally and proximodistally
Term
What are the Contemporary Motor Control Concepts?  CHE
Definition

Control parameters

heterarchical control

Emergence

Term
How does the contemporary motor control model explain movement?
Definition

As heterarchical or as the result of several factors, with no one factor controlling the other.  These factors include PEN..


Personal Factors

Environmental Conditions

Nature of the task

Term
What does emergence refer to?
Definition

the complex motor actions that spontaneously occur as a result of person, environment, task factors interacting

A change in the movement pattern can result from a change in any of these factors.  This change, which results in a change in the resulting motor action is a control parameter

Term
What is a control parameter?
Definition
A change in movement pattern that occurs as a result of a change  that affects the person, task, or the environment.  The change in the resulting motor action is called a control parameter.
Term
What is an attractor state?
Definition
preferred patterns of doing a task.  they result from the dyamic interaction of person, environment, and task
Term
What do you know about The Rood Approach?
Definition
it is based off of the traditional view reflexes controlled motor control, voluntary actions are controlled at a conscious level, reflex patterns are under subcortical control, not consciously controlled.
Term
According to the Rood approach, what happens when the CNS is damaged?
Definition
reflexes cant develop, may see too much or too little muscle tone present
Term
What does intervention involve with the Rood Approach?
Definition
Intervention involves the application of sensory and proprioceptive stimulation
Term
True or False..Roods approach focuses on normalizing muscle tone through use of sensory stimuli to elicit appropriate muscle responses.?
Definition
True
Term
What are the four intervention strategies used with Rood's approach?
Definition

1.  Begin with current motor level and work your way up through a sequence of normal motor development

2.  Focus activity on the activities goals/purpose

3.  Use repetition to reinforce learning

4.  Provide sensory input to get the desired muscle responses

Term
What do you know about Bobath's NDT
Definition
They focused on tone and posture and movement patterns  that were present after brain damage and interfered with functional activity.  Abnormal movement and posture problems restrict a person from learning normal movement
Term
According to Bobath, how does motor control emerge?
Definition
From learning the sensations of movement.. postural movements are learned, elaborated on and then integrated. 
Term
What is the focus of NDT intervention?
Definition
Stopping undesired movement patterns and creating new ones through sensory stimuli
Term
If we are using NDT, what should follow the practice of movement patterns?
Definition
pair the practice with a skilled activity
Term
What is Brunnstroms Developmental Theory based on?
Definition
Its based on the observation that normal development involves a developmental progression of patterns of limb synergies.  Reflexes are modified and arranged into purposeful movements as higher brain centers take over
Term
What is the therapeutic approach used with Brunnstroms Movement Therapy?
Definition
Involves eliciting reflex synergies and to use them as the basis for more developed movement.
Term
What are the six levels of recovery from cva hemiplegia according to Brunnstrum?
Definition

1.  Flaciddity-no normal movement

2. appearance of movement synergies

3.  Voluntary control over synergies

4.  Voluntary movement deviating from synergies

5.  Voluntary independence from basic synergies

6.  Voluntary isolated joint movements

Term
True or False.  The Brunnstrom approach allows for reflex activity to be used during the early stages and later inhibited.
Definition
True
Term
What is PNF?
Definition
It says reflexes are dominant in early motor behavior and later integrated into motor behavior that is more voluntary.  Normal moter movement consists of reversing movements and dependent upon balance of antagonist muscles
