PERCEPTION Flashcards
what part and side of the brain is most likely involved in perceptual skills?
Right Parietal lobe
Ideational apraxia
no motor planning
Ideomotor apraxia
motor planning with cue
Dressing apraxia
spatial relations, body scheme, and constructional apraxia
Constructional apraxia
2 and 3 dimensions
Unilateral neglect
one side of body is not recognized
Body Scheme disorder
Hemianopsia/visual neglect
visual field cuts, quarter cuts more dangerous
Visual scanning
horizontal line
Visual attention
most basic skills, holding attention to visual field to make sense of it.
Visual tracking
reading
Spatial Relations
Figure Ground
Topographical Orientation
Perception Assessments
1) House-Clock-Flower = Spatial Relation
2) Line Bisection or Letter Cross out = Visual Traking/Unilateral Neglect
3) Find the Item = Figure Ground
4) Complete the Dot Design = Spatial Relations
5) R/L Discrimination
6) Body Scheme
Top Down Approach
Compensatory: use of vision or other senses to make up for it, visual and verbal cues, environ mods - color cueing, auditory cueing, eliminate distractions, use simple instructions
*ADAPTIVE TECHNIQUES and LESSER use of adaptive equipment
Bottom Up Approach
Remedial: NDT, controlled sensory input, manipulation techniques, graded sensory stim, positioning and handling methods, neuroplasticity,
*Best Long term success, must be used across all discipline consistently
Transfer of training Approach
BOTTOM UP: splinter skill enhancement
Functional Approach
TOP DOWN - Occupational Performance approach: repetitions of daily task, adapt environment, teach awareness,
Techniques for difficulties with initiiation and perseveration
forward chaining, funcional training, tactile and verbal cues, self monitoring
