Chapter 1 The Basics

Question 1

Cervical superior facet orientation?

Answer 1

Backward, upward, medial

Question 2

Thoracic superior facet orientation?

Answer 2

Backward, upward, lateral

Question 3

Lumbar superior facet orientation?

Answer 3

Backward, medial

Question 4

Isotonic contraction?

Answer 4

Muscle contraction that results in tension remaining the same while muscle length shortens; operator’s force is less than patient’s force

Question 5

Isometric contraction?

Answer 5

Muscle contraction that results in the increase in tension without a change in muscle length; operator’s force is equal to patient’s force

Question 6

Isolytic contraction?

Answer 6

Muscle contraction against resistance while forcing the muscle to lengthen; operator’s force is more than patient’s force

Question 7

Concentric contraction?

Answer 7

Muscle contraction that results in the approximation of the muscle’s origin and insertion

Question 8

Eccentric contraction?

Answer 8

Lengthening of muscle during contraction due to an external force

Question 9

Myofascial release?

Answer 9

Direct and indirect, active and passive

Question 10

Counterstrain?

Answer 10

Indirect, passive

Question 11

Facilitated positional release?

Answer 11

Indirect, passive

Question 12

Muscle energy?

Answer 12

Direct, active

Question 13

HVLA?

Answer 13

Direct, passive

Question 14

Cranial?

Answer 14

Direct and indirect, passive

Question 15

Lymphatic treatment?

Answer 15

Direct, passive

Question 16

Chapman’s reflexes?

Answer 16

Direct, passive

Question 17

In type I dysfunction, what motion precedes what?

Answer 17

SB precedes rotation (NSlRr)

Question 18

In type II dysfunction, what motion precedes what?

Answer 18

Rotation precedes SB (FRrSr)

Question 19

What is the only subjective component of TART?

Answer 19

Tenderness

Question 20

2 types of isotonic contraction?

Answer 20

1) Concentric (shortening)

2) Eccentric (lengthening)

Question 21

Upward mvt of a bicep curl?

Answer 21

Concentric contraction

Question 22

Downward mvt of a bicep curl?

Answer 22

Eccentric

Question 23

Contraction in which tension remains the same?

Answer 23

Isotonic
