Neuromaturation Theory
development is biologically driven field

rehearsal and retraining theory

Dynamical Systems Theory
– movement is the result of the interactions of many systems, the environment, and the nature of the task

spinal cord injuries

information to and from the brain is compromised

Motor delay
Following a normal course of development; slower progression through milestones

- visual impairments, cognitive disabilities, learning disabilities, and autism

Structural Deficits
Structural difference that prohibits children to develop the same as those without disabilities

Brain stem injuries

Spasticity, Abnormal muscle tone, Postural problems, difficulty controlling eye movements, breathing, and tongue control and salivation
Cerebellum
balance and coordiation
dysmetria
(cannot coordinate… reaching and missing what they were trying to reach) This has a lot of over adjustment
Cerebrum
voluntary movements
dysdiadochokinesia
(repeated movements and ability to perform), tremors, dysarthria (slurred speech)
Meditation Deficit
something is fundamentally wrong with cognitive processing ability

- Strategies to aid cognitive processing do not work.

Production Deficits
– no fundamental damage, but individual does not use cognitive strategies to facilitate performance

Ex: learning disabilities


Strategies will usually work

Cerebral Palsy
– permanently disabling disorders resulting from damage to the motor

-control areas of the brain


Abnormal muscle tone


Heightened persistence of primitive and postural reflexes


Limited coordination


Abnormal sensory awareness

Intellectual Disability
– results in a delay of one to three years in mild cases, four or more in severe cases

Motor delays grow as individuals age

Pervasive Developmental Disorder Autism
deficits in communication, behaviors, and social skills

Motor delays may be a result of a lack of interest, short attention span, or something else

STSS
limitless capacity; information is retained for one second unless attended to
ST
storage area between STSS and LT; limited capacity of 7 chunks; retained for 30-60 seconds
LT
unlimited capacity; information has to be processed in a meaningful way for retrieval
