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
|
