Midterm

Question 1

Remedial Approach

Answer 1

deficit specific, the assumption that it is generalizable, repeptive practice

Question 2

functional

Answer 2

task specific training, Emphasis on changing task performance instead of underlying impairment, very specific can’t be applied or generalized to other tasks or populations

Question 3

Multicontextural

Answer 3

To transfer the strategies you learned to various contexts
Task is not as important as the strategy
-generalization of skills -goal is to increase the use of strategies to improve function in everyday life activities

Question 4

3 Parts of functional approach

Answer 4

1. adaption - adapting environment or the task so the person will improve.
2. task specific approach- repetition with vanishing cues (less and less cues) If someone needs to learn how to heat lunch in the microwave, I will teach them exactly how to do that.
3. compensation- someone changing something for themselves on their own (if someone does it for them it is usually an environmental adaptation approach) aka labels in kitchen

Question 5

continum of transfer

Answer 5

main goal is to transfer strategies across contexts/tasks
in order to increase generalization of the strategy the OT will create a continuum of transfer
- near, intermediate, far, very far transfers

Question 6

Cognitive factor assessments

Answer 6

looking at their cognitive status in regards to attention, neglect, initiation etc. -cognitive factors are like observing the way they think (kinda) less activity based more like specific to the deficit
-MOCA, SLUMS, O-LOG, Cog-Log, Medi-cog, CAM, LOTCA,

Question 7

Dynamic cognitive factors

Answer 7

Dynamic assessments are given with the use of cues to gestures to physical assist to see how the patient may best complete the task given the examiner information on what is required for optimal performance,
AR, EFPT, (giving cues)

Question 8

Static cog factors example

Answer 8

Static assessments are given to capture a baseline, question asked answer given
Can be subjective
-MOCA

Question 9

Occupational performance assessments

Answer 9

Occupational is their Exec Functioning .. how good they are at following tasks and stuff Activity card sort (ACS), COPM, goal attainment scale (GAS)

Question 10

Direct intervention

Answer 10

teaching someone to label their cabinets (teaching them a strategy)

Question 11

indirect intervention

Answer 11

labeling cabinets or training a caregiver to label cabinets

Question 12

3 main cognitive approaches

Answer 12

1. remedial (deficit specific)
2. Functional (adaption, task specific, compensation)
3. Combined approaches (multicontextural, co-op approach)

Question 13

near transfer (multicontextural approach)

Answer 13

Near transfer – alternate form of the same task while keeping the underlying conceptual characteristics consistent.

Question 14

intermediate transfer (multicontextural approach)

Answer 14

3-6 task parameters are changed. The task shares some physical features with the original task but the similarities are less obvious

Question 15

far transfer (multicontextural approach)

Answer 15

all task parameters are changed except for 1-2. The task is conceptually the same but physically different.

Question 16

very far transfer

Answer 16

transfer of what being learned in treatment to everyday functioning.
