neuroplasticity Flashcards
principle 1
use it or lose it (smarts, math, muscle)`
principle 2
use it and improve it (dad body>hulk)
principle 3
specificity (practice tasks related to skill you want to be an expert in)
principle 4
repitition
principle 5
intensity (heart rate)
principle 6
time
-different plasticity occurs at different times
-better prognosis if around a 5 day after stroke/trauma
-longer you wait=more time to learn poor habits
principle 7
salience: (how relevant or important something is)
Principle 8
age (younger=more plastic=new pathways=learn faster)
Principle 9
transference
-train certain skills with similar motor patterns to get results
-use and train adjacent neurons
principle 10
interference
-learning that takes place and eventually ends up interfering with the ability to learn a different new skill
