Exam 2 Study guide- management

Question 1

What are the two major principles of motor learning?

Answer 1

1. Intensive and repetitive practice is necessary

2. Random practice facilitates the development of motor programs and promotes generalization more than BLOCKED practice

Question 2

True/False: initial learning is faster with random practice than blocked practice

Answer 2

FALSE!! Initial practice is SLOWER with random practice than blocked practice BUT random practice will help to re establish motor programs

Question 3

True/False: remediation should process systematically through hierarchies of task difficulty

Answer 3

TRUE!

Question 4

True/False: Treatment should focus on non speech movement for clients with severe impairments

Answer 4

True HOWEVER the non speech movements should be movements used in speech movements (I.e. Tongue tip elevation)

Question 5

When improving naturalness, what area should be focused on?

Answer 5

Improving prosody

Question 6

Name 3 common strategies that are used to achieve compensated intelligibility

Answer 6

Increased loudness
Over articulation
Modifying speech rate

Question 7

Doing too much or what two things can hinder motor learning?

Answer 7

Providing too frequent or too detailed KR feedback

Question 8

Name the two types of feedback

Answer 8

Knowledge of performance (KP)

Knowledge of results (KR)

Question 9

What is knowledge of results?

Answer 9

A feedback technique that tells the patient If they got it right or wrong

Question 10

What is knowledge of performance (KP?

Answer 10

A feedback technique that provides feedback about specific aspects of movement during their performance

I.e. You didn’t close your lips all the way etc.

Question 11

True/False: a large delay in KR could result in impaired speech learning

Answer 11

TRUE!!

After providing results, a 3 sec delay should be given to allow pts to
