17
Q

Intrinsic vs extrinsic strategies

A

intrinsic feedback that comes from you tactile, vestibular, or visual system after the task

Extrinsic feedback is feedback that comes from an outside source can include therapist knowledge of performance and knowledge of results

18
Q

Factors conditions that promote generalization

A

. Capacity to generate intrinsic feedback.

  1. High feedback regarding knowledge of performance.
  2. Low extrinsic feedback regarding knowledge of results.
  3. Practice conditions that are variable, random.
  4. Whole task performance as opposed to breaking activities into contrived parts.
  5. High contextual interference utilizes environmental conditions that increase the difficulty of learning such as noise distractions, crowded environments.
  6. Practice in naturalistic settings, i.e. the setting in which the skill being taught will be utilized or an environment that closely resembles the one in which the skills will be performed.
19
Q

sustained, divided and selective attention

A

Sustained attention is the ability to keep that focus or concentration for long periods of time even if the individual is exposed to the repetitive action or activity.

Selective attention is the ability to select from the many factors or stimuli and focus to only one that you prefer or your brain selects.

Divided attention is the ability of an individual to focus or concentrate on two or more environmental factors, stimuli, or activities simultaneously.

20
Q

learning strategies and metacognitive strategies

A
  • learning strategies (e.g., acquiring, selecting, organizing or rehearsing material to be learned), and self-regulation

-metacognitive strategies (e.g., checking, monitoring, planning,
predicting, and gauging performance)

21
Q

A broad category of techniques that involve mental operations, inner speech or imagery, or thinking and
talking aloud.

Repeating information mentally or verbally such as key words, rules, procedures, action steps, or facts
to enhance retention of information or procedures. Includes imagined, mental practice of procedures or
performance of a task as opposed to actual practice.

Forming associations between words, sets of words, pictures, or images to cue actions or recall.

Repeating information that has been coded or abbreviated to guide a sequence of actions or enhance
recall of information.

Linking similar information together based on previous experiences, knowledge of categories, or physical
similarities.

Expands or adds to new information (adding new words, sentences, images, symbols or actions) and
relates it to previous information.

Mental images involve transforming physical objects, events, actions, or experiences into images,
symbols, or representations. Mental imagery is not just visual as it can involve imaging smells, textures,
sounds, or the feel of movements.

Thinking back involves replaying, imagining, or verbalizing a previous activity, experience, or context to
assist in guiding performance in a new a situation.

Imagining or verbalizing potential challenges or obstacles, possible scenarios, or outcomes to assist in
preparing for a task (e.g., before going shopping, thinking about self-dealing with crowds, noise, and
lights without difficulty).

Translation of information such as written instructions, procedures, or actions into images, phrases, or
more manageable chunks of information.

Provide oneself instructions, self-cues, or reminders to prepare or guide oneself through a task (selfinstruction,
self-talk, talk aloud).

Positive self-talk, thinking, and encouragement to increase persistence or to help regulate and control
emotions (e.g., you can do this, stay calm ).

Imagining or asking oneself key questions related to the task or performance.
Identifying, verbalizing, or thinking about what one knows about a task before beginning.

External cognitive strategy

Strategies that involves specifying, changing, or adjusting the task stimuli or arrangement

Decreasing the amount of information or number of items presented at any one time, covering or removing
part of task stimuli.

Reorganizing task materials or steps so that similar items or steps are together (association, categorization).

Breaking apart steps or reducing steps or activity into more manageable parts.

Creating or using a written, pictorial, or audiotaped list of steps to guide performance or cue actions.

Actions that assist with the timing of activities, e.g., taking breaks, spreading activities throughout the
day, completing partial tasks, etc.

Humming a tone, singing a song or rhythm, or counting to oneself or
out loud, tapping one’s foot to a rhythm to assist with the timing of actions.

Identify specific relevant features or components of a task prior to an activity that requires careful consideration,
planning, or attention.

Identifying key cues or features to pay attention to during performance.
Pointing to relevant task stimuli to enhance attention to details or to pace timing within a task

Q

Acute care precautions

A

Wear protective clothing ( i.e gown, mask, goggles) when splashing of body substances is anticipated.
Avoid eye contact, nail biting.
Report infected/draining lesions and weeping skin to supervisor
Handle patient-care equipment appropriately to prevent transfer of infectious microorganisms
Check patient’s lab values, physician orders, clear patient with nursing before seeing
patient
Monitor vital signs and patient’s response to treatment
monitor position of lines folley catheter, chest tubes
