neuroplascitiy

Question 1

define motor learning

Answer 1

set of practice / experience leading to permanent change

Question 2

motor performance

Answer 2

short term change behaviour / motor skill

Question 3

learning

Answer 3

sustainable/ permanent change

Question 4

does motor learning stay after stroke

Answer 4

yes

Question 5

explicit motor learning

Answer 5

assessed by testing memory for factual knowledge
recall
recgonition

Question 6

what is learned after one exposrue

Answer 6

explicit memories

Question 7

implicit memoeres

Answer 7

made slowly
accumulate practice
sometimes without conscious recollected of elements being learned

Question 8

____ predicts motor learning after stroke

Answer 8

ipsilesional white matter integrity

Question 9

how to optimize motor learning potential

Answer 9

promoting neuroplasiticty or brain reorganizing

Question 10

neuroplasticity

Answer 10

observable change (reorganization ) in neutron structrure / function

Question 11

t/f loss of brain tissue is inevitable in adults

Answer 11

true

Question 12

__ are modified based on experience

Answer 12

dendrits

Question 13

what facilitates brain plasciticy

Answer 13

redundancy
unmasking
distrubuted processes
dynamic connectivity

Question 14

redundancy

Answer 14

more than one area can support functional behaviours (writing with the other hand)

corticospinal tract

Question 15

unmasking

Answer 15

back up system
neutrons are silent until damage occurs

premotor / somatosensory areas

Question 16

distributed processes

Answer 16

functions not localized to one area

basal ganglia, cerebellum etc.. help with motor learning

Question 17

dynamic connectivity

Answer 17

neutrons can form new connections based on inputs

Question 18

negative neuroplastcity

Answer 18

repetitive injuries
chronic pain
drugs
compensate for tumour
seizures

Question 19

principles of experience dependent plasticity

Answer 19

use it or lose it
use it and improve it
specificity
reps
intensity
time matters
saliency matter
transference
interference
difficult

Question 20

T/F high intensity high reps for neuroplasticity

Answer 20

true
