Class 3 Flashcards
Skill Development
Development of holistic occupations within supportive contexts
Occupational Development - pediatrics
- Top Down Approach
- MOHO, PEOP, CMOPE
- Determine persons desires, goals and needs within the context in which a person performs.
- Occupational analysis
- Developmental and/or performance components
- Environmental contexts
Neuromaturational theory
cephaulocaudal progression of movement. proximal to distal sequence.
There are consistent and predictable patterns and sequence
Neuromaturational theory
The child learns occupations through interaction with his or her environment rather than through the emergence of a predetermined scenario reflecting only neuro-maturational principles.
Reflexive to controlled movement
Consistent and predictable patterns
Cephalocaudal, proximal-distal sequence
Neurophysiological development
- Prenatal Development
- Health of mother
- Access to care
- Each trimester fosters specific growth in neurophysiological systems.
-Around 28 weeks gestation synaptic production begins and continues after birth.
Neurophysiologic Development
Critical Period- The time during brain maturation where exposure to environmental stimuli and participation in occupations have a peak effect on development and learning.
Primitive Reflexes- (pg. 79 Table of Reflexes)
Automatic survival responses necessary for health and safety
Neuroplasticity-
ability of nervous system to respond to intrinsic and extrinsic stimuli by reorganizing its structure, function and connections
Neuroplastic events are:
developmental
adaptive
restorative
Types of plasticity
Experience Independent
Experience-expectant
Experience- dependent
Experience Independent
Development happens regardless
Experience-expectant
we expect a certain plasticity based on that experience
Experience- dependent
injury occurs and we are able to adapt to it.
Dynamic systems theory:
Non-linear and transactive person factors
Task Characteristics
Environmental systems
Non-linear and transactive person factors
Cognitive, musculoskeletal sensory, preception and social emotional factors
Task Characteristics
Nature of the task, goals, rules, object properties, affordances. Environmental systems contexts.
Using dynamic systems theory, what factors are interacting when a child is self-feeding?
environment - food
hand-eye-coordination
someone to provide the food
need to be able to sit
hold head at midline
cognitive factors
Occupational Perspective of Health (OPH) (make more slides on this from powerpoint)
Doing, being, becoming, belonging
Bioecological Model of Development
Layer 1- individual child
Layer 2- caregivers
Layer 3- family context
Layer 4- community
Layer 5- geopolitical contexts
Which model describes the development of occupations through doing, being, becoming and belonging?
Occupational Perspective of Health (OPH)
According to Dynamic Systems Theory, what is a non-linear and transactive factor?
muskuloskeletal
Which layer encompasses the broader world which children live in, including concepts such as occupational justice, occupational alienation and deprivation?
Level 5
Keep in mind, HOW and how quickly we achieve is individual
Some infants roll to another space in the room, whereas others scoot on their buttocks in a sitting position.
How the infant achieves mobility is influenced by many contributing body systems (e.g., strength, coordination, and sense of balance and movement).
Conditions in the environment also influence infant mobility (e.g., the surfaces on which the child plays, the encouragement provided by the caregivers, and the way in which the task is presented).
Co-Occupations
The performance of occupation “in a mutually responsive, interconnected manner that requires aspects of shared physicality, shared emotionality and shared intentionality”
