17
Q

Motor learning

A

Complex set of internal processes that involves the acquisition and relatively permanent retention of a skilled movement or task through practice

18
Q

Motor performance

A

Acquisition of the ability to carry out a skill, (learning involves both acquisition and retention)

19
Q

Discrete task

A

Involves an action or movement with a recognizable beginning and end.
- isolating and contracting a specific mm group

20
Q

Serial task

A

Composed of a series of discrete movements that are combined in a particular sequence

  • some require specific timing between each segment
  • ex:
21
Q

Continuous task

A

Involves repetitive, uninterrupted movements that have no distinct beginning and ending.
- ex: walking, stairs, cycling

22
Q

Stages of motor learning

A
  1. Cognitive: pt must figure out WHAT to do and HOW to do it. Lots of thinking required
  2. Associative: pt makes infrequent errors and concentrates on fine-tuning the motor task. Timing, problem-solving, less cues add more anticipation
  3. Autonomous: movements are automatic, and possible to multitask (pt discharged before this stage)
23
Q

Closed environment

A

Objects around the pt and the surface on which the task is performed do not move
- pt’s complete attention is on the task

24
Q

Open environment

A

Objects or other people are in motion or the support surface is unstable during the task
- movement in environment is not under pt control

25
Q

Pre-practice conditions

A
  • pt’s understanding of / interest in the task - pt’s attention to task - proper demonstration - environment (safe, open or closed)
26
Q

Practice conditions

A
  1. Part vs whole: break it down into simple tasks and then pul it together
  2. Order: part break down allows change in the order
27
Q

Order (practice conditions)

A
  1. Blocked: same task, same order, same environment
  2. Random: slight variations
  3. Random/blocked: same task, different order. Pt completes more than 1 before changing the order
  4. Physical vs mental: mental rehearsal of a motor task reinforces the cognitive component of motor learning
28
Q

4 main task dimensions in taxonomy

A
  1. The environment in which the task is performed (open or closed)
  2. The intertribal variability of the environment that is imposed on a task (absent = constant, present = demands change from one attempt)
  3. The need for a person’s body to remain stationary or to move during the task
  4. The presence or absence of manipulation of objects during the task (absent = requires UE)
29
Q

Intrinsic feedback

A

Comes from all sensory systems of the learner.

  • Proprioception and sense, direct result from completion task.
  • Continuous source of information that provides knowledge of performance and knowledge of results
30
Q

Extrinsic (augmented) feedback

A

Supplemental and not directly experience by the person.

- Therapist has control of the type, timing, and frequency that the pt receives

31
Q

Knowledge of performance

A

Either intrinsic feedback sensed during a task or immediate, postask, augmented feedback (usually verbal) about the nature or quality of the performance of a motor task

32
Q

Knowledge of results

A

Immediate, posttask, augmented feedback about the outcome of a motor task

33
Q

Concurrent feedback

A

Occurs during the performance of a task

  • real time feedback
  • VC and TC
34
Q

Immediate post response feedback

A

Infor that is given directly after a task is completed

35
Q

Delayed feedback

A

Information that is given after a short interval of time has elapsed, allowing time for the learner to reflect on how well or poorly a task was executed

36
Q

Summary feedback

A

Information that is given about the average performance of several repetitions of a motor skill

37
Q

Variable feedback

A

Occurs irregularly, randomly during practice of a motor task

38
Q

Constant feedback

A

Occurs on a regularly recurring, continuous basis during practice of a motor task

39
Q

Factors that influence adherence

A
  1. Pt-related factors: health lit, motivation, self-discipline, memory, fatigue, stress, etc
  2. Health condition or impairments: acuity, chronicity, severity, stability, etc
  3. Program-related: complexity, supervision, feedback, continuity of settings, etc
40
Q

Strategies to foster adherence

A
  1. Set a good example (posture, mechanics, communication)
  2. Expect pts not to follow plan
    - explore and appreciate pt’s beliefs about exercise
    - keep program brief
    - identify barriers
    - edu of each exercise and functional activity
    - identify how each activity is goal oriented
    - give pt a voice
41
Q

Questions to ask yourself

A
  1. Does pt actually understand activity and able to complete accurately? *never prescribe activity you havent watched
  2. Do they understand medical barriers?
  3. Routine prior to injry?
  4. Do they understand how program will make them feel?
    * *difference between pain and DOMS
    * want to decrease annoyance, panic, and discouragement
    - tell them what to expect!
42
Q

Safety

A

Environment - equipment - mechanics - meds - PMH - CP health - performing activity accurately
