Module 2: Lesson 6: The multicontext approach Flashcards
What is the multicontext approach?
Strategy based intervention using a metacognitive framework, first described as an alternative to traditional remedial or deficit specific approaches.
What is described below:
- Strategy based intervention using a metacognitive framework first described as an alternative to traditional remedial or deficit specific approaches.
- Involves: Self monitoring to recognize functional cognitive performance errors. Guided questioning to support self discovery, Use of effective strategies to help improve performance of functional cognitive activities.
The Multicontect approach
What model is the multicontext approach based on?
The dynamic interaction model
What model is described below:
- Performance is a result of dynamic interaction between external factors (environment) and internal factors (motor)
- Learning and generalization require manipulation of task, demands and environment
Dynamic interactional model
Describe the dynamic interactional model
- Performance is a result of the dynamic interaction between external factors (environment) and internal factors (motor)
- Learning and generalization require manipulation of task, task demands and environment.
What are the 4 stages used to facilitate clients ability to transfer a learned strategy? (Horizonal continuum)
- Near transfer
- Intermediate
- Far
- Ver far (generalization)
True or false:
The multicontext approach does not involve helping people with self awareness and recognizing errors.
False it does
What are the target populations (diagnoses) for the multicontext approach?
- Stroke
- TBI
- MS
- Lupus
- PD
- MCI
- Attention deficits
- Mental health conditions
**it is used across the lifespan
The follow is described as the most or least appropriate for the multicontext approach.
- Subtle/mild neurological impairment up to moderate neurological impairment
- Potential to improve self awareness
- Potential to identify and apply strategies
Most appropriate
The following is described as the most or least appropriate for the multicontext approach?
- Major language impairments
- Moderate to severe dementia
- Severe cognitive deficits
- Limited responsiveness to cues
- Unwilling to respond to guided questioning
- Limited potential for changes in awareness
Least appropriate
Describe the least appropriate target population for the multicontext approach.
- Major language impairments
- Moderate to severe dementia
- Severe cognitive deficits
- Limited responsiveness to cues
- Unwilling to respond to guided questioning
- Limited potential for changes in awareness
Describe the most appropriate target population for the multicontext approach.
- Subtle/mild neurological impairment up to moderate neurological impairment
- Potential to improve self awareness
- Potential to identify and apply strategies
What is an assessment that can be used to evaluate metacognition?
Weekly Calendar Planning Activity
What are the 3 components involved in the metacognitive framework (multicontext approach)?
- Pre activity discussion
- Interaction/mediation during task performance
- Post activity discussion
True or false:
When using the metacognitive framework, guided questioning is required?
True
- Ask questions that guide, but dont direct
- Choice strategies are used as last option
