non-associative
associative
procedural
declarative

Question 17

Non-associative learning

Answer 17

single repeated stimulus (habituation, sensitization)

Question 18

Associative learning

Answer 18

causal relationships
(classical conditioning)

Question 19

Procedural learning

Answer 19

learned by habit forming

Question 20

Declarative learning

Answer 20

requires attention, awareness and reflection
(mental practice)

Question 21

Open system model

Answer 21

nervous system awaits stimuli to react

Question 22

Plasticity

Answer 22

modify or change synapse level

Question 23

Associated reaction

Answer 23

involuntary and automatic movement of a body part as a result of intentional active or resistive movement in another body part

Question 24

Closed motor skill

Answer 24

a skill performed under stable and unchanging environment

Question 25

Developmental sequence

Answer 25

progression of motor skill acquisition.

Question 26

Three stages of motor control as part of developmental sequence

Answer 26

mobility
stability
controlled mobility
skill

Question 27

Facilitation

Answer 27

elicit voluntary muscular contraction

Question 28

Heavy work

Answer 28

develop stability by performing work against gravity or resistance. Postural muscles

Question 29

Homolateral Synkinesis

Answer 29

flexion pattern that when UE flexes it flexes LE

Question 30

Inhibition

Answer 30

decrease excessive tone

Question 31

key patterns

Answer 31

developmental sequence by Rood that directs patients mobility recovery from synergy patterns through controlled motion.

Question 32

Key points of control

Answer 32

specific handling of designated areas of body (Shoulder, pelvis hand and foot) to influence form

Question 33

Light work

Answer 33

develop controlled movement and skilled function by performing activity without resistance. focuses on extremities

Question 34

open motor skill

Answer 35

performed under consistently changing environment

Question 36

overflow

Answer 36

muscle activation of involved extremity due to intense action of uninvolved muscle or group of muscles

Question 37

Placing

Answer 37

act of moving extremity into position where pt holds it

Question 38

Raimste’s phenomenon

LE abduct or adduct when applying resistance to uninvolved LE

Question 39

Reflex inhibiting posture

Answer 39

designated static positions that Bobath found to inhibit abnormal tonal influence and reflexes

Question 40

Soques’ phenomenon

Answer 40

raising involved UE above 100 degrees with elbow extension will produce extension and abduction of fingers
