Q

What is Motor Control?

A

The ability tregulate or direct the mechanisms
essential tmovement. Movement arises from interaction of all multiple processes, including those related tperception, cognition, and action

Q

Clinical Implication of Systems Theory

A
  1. Movement nervous system activty filtered through biomech system of body. 2. Must look at nervous and muscoloskeletal system tunderstand loss of Motor Cont. and how ttreat it. 3. Interventions must focus on interactions of impairments across multiple systems.

Q

Motor Control Requires

A

Movement requires intent, cognitive processes are essential tmotor control.
Motor control includes perception and action systems that are organized tachieve specific goals,
Study of motor control MUST include the study of cognitive processes as they relate tperception and action

Q

Key Points of Motor Control

A

CNS Organization and Open and closed loops

27
Q

Systems Theory

A

Movement arises from the interaction of multiple processes and individual including

  1. perceptual, cognitive and motor processes within the individual, and
  2. Interactions between the individual, the task, and the environment.
  3. Organism continuously changing mechanical system
28
Q

Task Oriented Theory

A

Task-Oriented Theory, especially in neurorehab. Clinical practices evolve in parallel with scientific theory, as clinicians assimilate changes in scientific theory and apply them tclinical practice.

29
Q

Motor Learning

A

Neural adaptations associated with practice and experience that lead ta long term change in the ability tproduce skilled movement. Focus on individual

30
Q

Motor Learning Entails

A

Motor Learning or Acquisition of skilled movement involves
RETENTION
GENERALIZABILITY
ADAPTABILITY

31
Q

Muscle Performance

A

Motor Performance
Changes in behavior observed during a practice session (may or may not reflect learning).
Affected by fatigue, motivation, anxiety

32
Q

Types of Learning and Memory

A

Declarative (Explicit)conscious recall of events and facts

Procedural (Implicit)tasks performed automatically

33
Q

Declarative Learning

A

Awareness, Attention and reflection are needed
Repetition can transform declarative intprocedural knowledge
Can be practiced in other ways then how it was learned
Mental practiceinput from medial temporal lobes, prefrontal cortex, and hippocampus

34
Q

Procedural Learning

A

Tasks that can be performed “automatically” (Habit)
Does not require as much attention or conscious thought
Develops slowly through repetition of a task under varying conditions
Movement schema
Rules for moving
Involves basal ganglia (striatum) and cerebellum and sensorimotor cortical areas

35
Q

Fitts and Posner 3 Stages of Motor Learning

A

Cognitive Stageexperimentation stage, lots of variability
Figuring out “What tdo”
Associative Stage
Deciding “How tdo”less variability in performance
Autonomous Stagepatient scans for

36
Q

Cognitive Stage - “What tdo”

A

Requires lots of cognitive processing and lots of error
Trying out multiple strategies, serrors random
Fast improvement
Heavy reliance on vision High Cognitive Demand with Variable Performance

37
Q

Associative Stage “How tDo”

A

Pt knows what tdo
Refinement of a selected motor strategy
Still improving, but more slowly; Errors more consistent
Proprioceptive cues become more important (vs. vision)
Learning is improved by opening environment
Less Cognitive Demand with Less Variability

38
Q

Autonomous Stage “How tSucceed”

A

Motor performance is largely automatic with little error
Automaticity of skill
Vary stable performance
Minimal cognitive monitoringAlmost nvariability with very low attentional demands
Attention can be shifted elsewhere with little degradation in performance

39
Q

Factors That Influence Motor Learning

A

Instructions
Practice
Feedback
Individual differences

40
Q

Instructions

A

Demonstration
Focus attention tspecific aspects of movement
Limit quantity and details of information tmatch cognitive abilities
Factors that influence motor learning

41
Q

Practice

A
Environmental factors
e.g. open versus closed environments
 Blocked versus random
Blocked practice each task individually
Random practice the tasks in random order
 Part-Task versus Whole-Task
42
Q

Feedback

A

Sensory information, verbal, tactile, biofeedback, visual, knowledge of results, knowledge of performance
