What are the structures
bones, muscles, joints and neural mechanisms. These are all present at birth. changes with maturation.
Function
structures determine what functions are possible.
Limitations in muscle function are based on
biomechanics of the joint; some muscles are stabilizers, others are mobilizers
Neuromuscular-skeletal functions are determined both by
genetic potential and environment
Development of certain functions can promote change in
structure
What impact might the environment have on function?
access, experience, modeling
Purpose
volition -an intentional action toward an outcome
Where does volition come in to play with coloring.
They have to want to do it.
the structure of the hand, bones, intrinsic/extrinsic muscles allow for the function of a tripod grasp on a utensil…
-This allows for the
purpose of drawing or writing.
This relationship between function and purpose of movement is influenced by a child’s
motivation to move and adapt movement
BOTH intrinsic and extrinsic motivation influence
movement
Environmental
Impact on Movement
The setting, including people and self
Everything with which the individual acts
Two dimensional- SPACE and TIME
Four Functions:
1) Holding function
2) Facilitation function
3) Challenge function
4) Interactive function
- Facilitating Function-
antigravity movement- the desire to move away from the static surface
- Holding Function-
holding position in space
What is antigravity mobement
moving against gravity.
- Challenge function-
Move against gravity, increase level of difficulty to progress in function
- Interactive function-
using environmental factors to further progress, master and advance…
Adaptation
A dynamic process that expands the child’s repertoire of both movements and activities
Allows complex movements to evolve
What are the 3 properties of adaptation:
- Sensorimotor-Sensory Process
- Developmental Nature of
Adaptation - Purposeful Nature of Adaptation
Sensorimotor- Sensory Process of Adaptation
- Assimilation- gathering information
- Accommodation- take and make motor responses
- Association- linking and comparing to prior events
- Differentiation- taking parts of motor actions and putting back together to create new motor goals
Assimilation-
gathering information
Accommodation-
take and make motor responses
Association-
linking and comparing to prior events
