M1 L5a: Ax SENSATION Principles Flashcards
What does CHART stand for?
- Chart
- History – subjective assessment with child and parent
- Examination -ˇ PASSWORD to PRACTICE manual
- Confer – ask teacher/other
- Knowledge – what do the child/family understand about sensation?
What does S stand for in SENSATION?
Senses (registers / detects / notices) stimuli from all senses
What are 2 types of “SENSES” in SENSATION?
- Low registration (doesn’t detect certain stimuli)
- Hypersensitivity (over sensitive to certain stimuli)
What are 4 characteristics of “Low registration (doesn’t detect certain stimuli)” for “SENSE” in SENSATION?
- Visual acuity
- Tactile registration
- Hot/cold
- Movement sense
What is a characteristic of “Hypersensitivity (over sensitive to certain stimuli)” for “SENSE” in SENSATION?
What does “E” stand for in SENSATION?
Engages appropriately with sensory tasks &/or environments
What are 2 types of “ENAGES” in SENSATION?
- Avoids / dislikes
- Over-seeks / Perseverates
What are 5 characteristics of “Avoids / dislikes” for “ENGAGES” in SENSATION?
- Sounds
- Sights
- Touches / textures
- Movements
- Tastes
What is a characteristic of “Over-seeks / Perseverates” for “ENGAGES” in SENSATION?
What does “N” stand for in SENSATION?
Nominates (perceives) meaning of a stimulus location, timing & special characteristics (e.g. colour)
What are 2 types of “NOMINATES” in SENSATION?
- Unable to perceive elements
- Unable to supress irrelevant stimuli
What are 3 characteristics of “Unable to perceive elements” for “NOMINATES” in SENSATION?
- Spatial location
- Temporal (timing)
- Special characteristics (e.g. colour, texture)
What is a characteristics of “Unable to supress irrelevant stimuli” for “NOMINATES” in SENSATION?
What does “S” (2) stand for in SENSATION?
Symmetry in registration & perception of sensory information
What are 2 types of “SYMMETRY” in SENSATION?
- Extinction or hemisensory loss
- Localised hypersensitivity
