Reflexes also known as

synergies; coordinative structures; reactions; movement patterns


3 types of movement

Reflex, Automatic, Volitional

Reflexive movement

Stimulus: external, Latency of response: fastest, variability of response: minimal

Factors modifying the reflexive movement response

musculoskeletal or neurological abnormalities

Automatic Movement

Stimulus: External, Latency of response: intermediate, Variability of response: some

Factors modifying the automatic movement response

nusculoskeletal or neurological abnormalities, configuration of support, prior experience

Volitional Movement

Stimulus: external or self-motivated, Latency of response: slowest, Variability of response: great

Factors modifying the Volitional Movement response

musculoskeletal or neurological abnormalities, conscious effort, prior experience, task complexity

Simple spinal reflex

mediated by the muscle spindle and golgi tendon organ

Primitive (early) reflexes

generally not present after the first year of life

Equilibrium and righting reactions

present throughout life

Visual Placing Reactions

older infants, correlated with independent walking (volitional movements)


Proprioceptive

younger infants, correlated with neonatal stepping reflex (spontaneous stepping)

Astasia

the inability to stand upright unassisted

Abasia

lack of motor coordination in walking

Persistent ______ is extremely problematic

Asymmetrical Tonic Neck Reflex (ATNR)

Righting Reactions

Bring the head into relation with the trunk or orient the head in a normal functional position relative to the ground

All standing and moving reactions to the forces of gravity are dependent on the ___________________, ________________, and ________________ systems acting together.

somatosensory, visual, and vestibular

___________________, and _______________ are also necessary to have in order to have standing and moving reactions to the forces of gravity.

muscular strength and range of motion

Optical Head Righting (combined with Labyrinthine Head Righting)

Onset: birth (but may not be seen until 2 months), Integration: persists through life, Testing is the same as LHR but without the blindfold

Protective Extension

Occurs when an extemity extends away from the body to break a fall. Protects the body against the effects of falling, remains throughout life (also known as parachute reactions, protective placing or propping reactions)

Tilting reactions

occurs when the center of gravity is shifted and the base of support is unstable (such as a tilt board)

Rolling Reactions

Neonatal Neck Righting, Neck Righting (Neck on Body), Body Righting (Body on Body)
