Exam #3 Flashcards
Father of medicine
Hippocrates
Father of sports medicine
Galen
PRICE
protection, rest, ice, compression, elevation
Immediate response to injury?
Blood flows to that area; swelling/inflammation
Isometric:
same length (generating force)
Isotonic
typical contraction
Concentric
shortening of muscle
Eccentric
lengthening of muscle
Isokinetic contractions
Contraction with same angular velocity
what is FERPA?
Family education rights and privacy act
What is HIPPA?
General rights for medical records and identification
Q-angle
Angle between the hip and the knee
Do females have a higher rate of ACL injury?
Yes because they have a steeper q-angle
What is a concussion?
Movement of the brain that usually occurs with impact
Concussion rates amongst sports
Contact sports have high concussion rates, those that are forceful have even higher rates
What happens to the brain after repeated concussions?
CTE- chronic traumatic encephalopathy
what is Self-efficacy?
your belief and self confidence in carrying out a task
Breakdown task and barrier self-efficacy
barrier: do you believe you can overcome any limitations task: can you complete the task
Past behavior and self-efficacy
huge factor; ups self confidence
Self-confidence?
your overall belief of yourself
Selective attention?
Your ability to select and focus on a certain thing within an environment and not get distracted
What is motivation? List three types
an aspect of arousal that gets you to be able to carry out tasks. intrinsic, extrinsic, motivated
Intrinsic motivation
motivated by yourself
Extrinsic motivation
motivated by outside factors
Amotivated
Having no motivation
What is cognition?
Awareness; general sense of knowing
What is the distraction hypothesis?
A hypothesis that there is a positive benefit in exercise that distracts from everyday life
Difference between drive hypothesis and inverted u hypothesis
Drive: linear increase of arousal/performance (lifting)
Inverted U: Finding the perfect medium of arousal for performance
What is the difference between closed vs. open-loop motor behavior
Closed: Allowed for adjustment; slow response
Open: Basically no modification; fast reaction
Define adherence to an exercise routing:
Social determinants of behavior:
Environment: education, health care, socioeconomic status
Motor Development
The overall development of the natural body and neuromuscular functioning as we age
Motor learning
How we learn how to pattern new motor movements (experience)
Motor control
Dealing with neuromuscular component; how we have the ability to control
Galvanic frog experiment:
Nerves transmit electrical signals to muscles which stimulates contraction of muscles
Galvani did this experiment
Prominent markers of normal growth in an infant
Head stability, sitting up, reaching/grasping
Prominent markers of normal growth in a child
Walking, jumping, reaction time
Normal growth in adolescence
gross pattern skills: jumping
Normal growth in adulthood
mastering skills
Normal growth in older adulthood
declining
When do we see the greatest decline in psychomotor function?
45/50s
3 Stages of information processing
Stimulus recognition, response selection, programming
How do we move information from short-term to long-term memory?
Encoding is going from short-long
Decoding is from long-short
What is contextual interference?
Number and difficulty of tasks that you are implementing
High CI? Low CI?
High: high complexity
Low: Very little deviation
How would you use CI if someone is learning a skill?
Start with low CI (for higher performance) but change over time
How might you use CI to master a skill?
Use higher CI so they can learn more
Task complexity in the sense of fading knowledge vs summary knowledge
As complexity rises, then you critique after every rep (summary) Eventually, you spread apart your critiques to rarely (faded)
How does current skill relate to “relative task difficulty”
Experience/skill level creates a lower relative task difficulty
