Q

what is motor learning

A

set of internal processes that lead to permanent change in capacity of skilled performance => reaquiring previously learned actions resulting from practice and repetition

must provide opportunity for feedback

Q

what are the 2 underlying theories of motor learning

A
  1. dynamic system theory: that change in one domain will affect the other (ex: chging environment)
  2. motor control: mvm is based on multiple systems (posture, mobility, fm, gm, environment, neuroplasticity)

Q

what are the requirement of motor learning?

A
  • doing/practicing/learning
  • goal set collab w client
  • must be responsive to change in person, environem (grading) to max transfer

Q

what is feedback motor control?

A

information on production of movement (internal or external) => from our own body

Q

what are the 5 motor learning principles?

A
  1. cognitive (idea of mvm required but not sure how to execute it)
  2. associative: skills become more refine w practice
  3. autonomous: mvm is automatic, less cognitive effort (can do dual task)
  4. practice and experience: alter mvm pattern thru interaction w environment
  5. feedback integrated

Q

what is open loop motor skills of motor learning? give examples

A

skill is performed in changing, unstable environment (externally paced) => changes not predictable requiring adaptation => more effective for transfer of learning

ex: hockey, driving

Q

what is closed loop motor skills in motor learning? give examples

A

skill performed in stable predictable environment => self paced allowing for automatic feedback loop

ex: yoga, gymnastics

Q

what are the 3 different types of tasks in motor learning. describe each one and give an example

A
  1. continous: no inherent start or finish as part of task (ex: walking)
    2, discrete: recognizable beginning and end (throwing a ball)
  2. serial: set of discrete tasks (dressing)

Q

why should we maximize practice time in motor learning

A
  • improved performance including transfer of learning to new activities within new settings

Q

what is extrinsic feedback

A

can be verbal, visual, auditory, biofeedback about

  1. knowledge of performance: info on quality of mvm process/attempt => helps them focus on features of performance that need improvement
  2. knowledge of result: info about mvm outcome (ex: # repetitions achieved)
  3. encourage self monitoring

Q

what is the difference between massed and distributed rest period?

A

massed - block of time, less rest period

distributed = more rest period, shorter

Q

what are the 2 types of order of mvm?

A
  1. blocked = remains the same

2. random = changing order of mvm

17
Q

what are the 2 types of conditions of task?

A

variable (like changing size which can optimize transfer)

or constant

18
Q

what are the 2 types of amount of task practiced?

A

part or whole

19
Q

what is task oriented approach?

A
  • motor learning approach but in the real world

- done in natural context, closest to actual occupations and movements are meaningful

20
Q

what are the 4 assumptions of task oriented?

A
  1. functional task reorganize motor behavior (neuroplast)
  2. motor learning behavior comes from interaction w real object/env/occupations
  3. occ performance reflect attempt to acheive goal
  4. exploration and practice enable solution finding to motor problems (multiple rpactices in mult env optimize transfer)
21
Q

what type of feedback should be given in task oriented?

A
  1. intrinsic via sensory systems (ex: proprioception)

2. extrinsic: verbal feedback, demonstration during/after movement, encouragement, physical/visual prompts

22
Q

what type of feedback should be given in task oriented?

A
  1. intrinsic via sensory systems (ex: proprioception)

2. extrinsic: verbal feedback, demonstration during/after movement, encouragement, physical/visual prompts

23
Q

why should feedback be given during task oriented

A

=> allows them to cognitively reflex on own progress and strength and challenge and problem solve to complete activity

24
Q

how do children and adult in the feedback they should receive

A

adult: sporadic feedback after delay = more effective
child: consistent feedback = more effective

25
what is contraint induced movement therapy (CIMT)
- motor learning - constraint movement of stronger side => encourage use of weaker arm to do daily activities = INTENSIVE task oriented training, practice, and coaching
26
what does CIMT require? (5)
1. concentration 2. repetition 3. intensity 4. patient compliance and motivation 5. minimal cognitive impairment
27
what is the frequency/intensity of CIMT?
- 90% of walking hours => 6 or more hours/day for 2 wk period (in clinic, at home....)
