Driving Flashcards
What does the clock drawing test assess
Visuospatial skills
Visual perception
Selective attention
Memory
Abstract thinking
EF
(asked to reproduce face of clock)
What does the optec functional visual analyzer assess
Depth perception
Visual acuity
Contrast sensitivity
Phorias
Glare recovery
Peripheral fields
Color perception
Sign recognition
(uses series of illuminated slides)
Phorias
Misalignment of the eyes causing natural resting point to be not perfectly aligned (exophoria, endophpria, hypophoria, hyperphoria)
Stereopsis
Both eyes working together to view objects in environment which created depth perception
What does letter-number cancellation test assess
Visual scanning
Selective attention
What does the MVPT assess
Visual-perceptual skills with no motor involvement including:
- Spatial relations
- Visual closure
- Visual discrimination
- Visual memory
- Figure-ground
What does symbol digit modalities test assess
Neurocognitive function underlying substitution tasks including processing speed, attention, visual scanning and motor speed
(match numbers to series of symbols based on reference key)
What does useful field of view assess
Cognitive assessment to assess crash risk on 5-point scale from very low risk to very high risk
- central vision
- peripheral vision
- cognitive processing speed
- divided attention
- selective attention
DriveABLE assessment
Standardized evaluation to determine driver competence
1. computer-based cognitive assessment tool
2. on the road driving
Porteus maze test
Paper-pencil tracing activity that is correlated with on the road driving
Trial making test
Paper-pencil test measuring cognitive flexibility, shifting,motor control, perceptual complexity, visual scanning and executive function
What does finger to nose test assess
UE motor coordination and dysmetria
What is TUG and GUG indicator for
Fall risk
Composite batteries for driving
- Assessment of driving-related skills
- Driving health inventory
- Occupational therapy driver off-road assessment
On Road evaluations
- Stationary in-vehicle orientation and assessment
- Closed route (protected enviro)
- Fixed route (variety of scenarios)
- Variable and naturalistic (community)
Sefl-assessments for driving
- Driving habits questionnaire
- Safer driving workbook
- Fitness to drive screening
- AAA resources
Michon’s hierarchy of driving behaviors
- Strategic level: higher-level decision making to determine trip goals, navigating, mapping routes
- Tactical level: decisions make during driving maneuvers (left hand turns, slowing to accommodate weather, deciding to pass)
- Operational level: decisions made to control vehicle safely with visual-motor and coordination skills
Primary controls
Engaged when vehicle is in motion and affect direction and speed of vehicle (gas, break, steering)
Secondary controls
Accessible when vehicle is in motion but does not affect speed and direction (turn signal, horn, windshield, cruise control)
Tertiary controls
Do not beed to be activated when car is in motion (ignition, gear selector, air conditioner)
Travel training
Blindness
Travel instruction
People with disabilities
Walkability
Extened in which build enviornment is walking friendly
Livability
Extend in which community fulfills 6 core principles
1. Affordable, appropriate, accessible housing
2. Accessible, affordable, reliable transportation
3. Physical enviro for inclusiveness and accessibility
4. Work, volunteer, educational opportunities
5. Health and support services
6. Participation in cultural, social, recreational activities
