Q

Ecological Model of sensory modulation

A

Responses are due to interaction between external and internal dimension in context and difficulty with modulation can be due to difficulties with social and environment interactions and/pr difficulties with self-regulation due to a mismatch between external and internal

17
Q

Somatodyspraxia

A

Disorder in motor planning due to poor tactile perception and proprioception

18
Q

Difficulty with localizing tactile stimuli

A

Impaired stereognosis and decreased FM and eye-hand coordination

19
Q

Proprioceptive processing disorder

A

Poor awareness of position of body, parts and schema, clumsiness, motor planning difficulties, use too little or too much force, poor awareness of personal space

20
Q

Gravitation insecurity

A

Over-responsiveivity to vestibular input, excessive fear during typical activity especially when feet are off the ground

21
Q

Vestibular hyposensitivty

A

Child seeks intense vestibular stimulation without complains of dizziness

22
Q

Vestibular discrimination deficits

A

Low muscle tone, postural-ocular deficits, decreased balance, low endurance

23
Q

Dyspraxia

A

Difficulty with planning motor movements especially when complex or new

24
Q

Focus of sensory integration and praxis test

A

Tactile processing
Vestibular proprioceptive processing
Visual perception
Practicability

25
Common challenges in ASD
Impairments in communication and social skills Difficulties with ADL and IADL Stereotypical and repetitive routines and behaviors
26
Praxis
Ability to plan, organize and carry out motor movement in order to complete unfamiliar motor tasks
27
Components of praxis impacted in ASD
Ideation Motor organization Feed forward praxis Execution Feedback processes
28
Ideation
Ability to imagine and identify a motor goal with an idea of how to achieve the goal
29
Feed forward praxis
Concept of sending motor plan to brain, comparing previous performance and detecting potential errors in the plan before executing
30
Motor organization
Ability to place and organize motor action sin response to environment
31
School function assessment
- Ecological assessment commonly used for children with ASD - Grades K - 6 - Measures student performance of functional tasks that impact academic and social aspects of school -Facilitates collaborative program planning for students with various disabling conditions. - Judgment-based questionnaire assessment completed by one or more school professionals
32
DSM ASD DX
1. Persistent deficits in social communication and social interactions across multiple contexts (social-emotional reciprocity, nonverbal communication, developing.understanding relationships) 2. Restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior, interest, activities (motor movements, inflexible routines or ritualized patterns, rigid thinking patterns, restricted and fixated interests, hyper/hypo sensory input 3. Symptoms may present in early development but not fully manifested until social demands exceed individual's limits 4. Significant impairment in social ,occupation or other areas of function 5. Not better explained by ID or GDD
33
What senses are emphasized with Ayres Sensory Integration
Proximal senses - Vestibular - Proprioceptive - Tactile
34
What is sensory-seeking behavior due to
Hypo-responsivity to stimulus
35
What is tactile defensiveness and gravitational insecurity due to
Hyper-responsiveness to stimulus
36
Areas of body that tactile defensiveness is elevated
Face, abdomen, palmar surface of hands
37
Tactile discrimination
Difficulty making sense of or interpreting tactile input impacting FM manipulation
38
Common proprioceptive dysfunction
Difficulty grading force and pressure
39
Common vestibular-proprioceptive dysfunction
Poor bilateral coordination and difficulty sequencing actions, responding to environmental changed during motor action
40
Dyspraxia
Difficulty with ideation, planning and execution of motor action
41
Key components of Ayres sensory integration
- Sensory input used to elicit adaptive response - More mature patterns of behavior involve consolidation of more primitive behaviors - Goal is to enable child to have effective/efficient response to environment - Child directed - Just right challenge - Play and imagination - Suspended equipment - 45-60 mins 2x/wk for 2 years
42
Expected outcomes of Ayres sensory integration
-Increased duration/frequency of adaptive response - More complex adaptive responses - Improvement in language, cognitive and school performance - Increased self-esteem and confidence - Enhance family life - Enhance occupational engagement and social participation
