Motor Development Across the Lifespan: Reflexes and Skills
Cards in this deck (60)
- 1Reflexesinvoluntary movement reactions that are elicited by stimuli “sound, light or touch”
- 227infant reflexes
- 3Primitive/survival reflexessurvival and protection
- 4Infants cansuck and inhale simultaneously
- 5Morowhen infant begins to fall arms and legs extend out hands open and fingers spread
- 6Startle:when moro disappears, arms and legs flex rather than extend
- 7Palmer grasp:replaced by voluntary grasp
- 8Tonic neck:assymetric facilitates hand eye coordination and laterality
- 9Babykin: pressure to both palms causes infant to open mouth, close eyes, flex the neck, or tilt the head
- 10Babinkskipressure applied to the sole of the foot causes the infant to fan out extend toes
- 11Plantar graspstroking the sole of the foot will induce the toes to contract or flex
- 12Postoral reflexesprovides the ability to react to gravitational forces
- 13Head and body rightingforms basis for voluntary rolling movements
- 14Labyrinthine rightingrelates to the look up position in forward locomotion
- 15Steppingfrom an upright position when pressure applied to bottom of the feet the infant responds with walking
- 16Swimmingif infant held horizontally in water with the head up the infant responds by moving arms and legs in swim motion
- 17Spontaneous movement:stereotypic rhythmic movements which appear in absence of any stimuli
- 18Rudimentary behavior age rangeis from birth until age 2
- 19Postural controlability to maintain posture and voluntarily move the body to a desired position
- 20Manual control:prehension, initial voluntary use of hands manipulation, skillful use of hands
- 213 aspects of developingreaching, grasping, releasing
- 22Early childhood is period oflandmark significance for motor development
- 23Fundamental movement skilla motor activity with a specific movement pattern
- 24Movement pattern: basic functional structure of fundamental motor skill
- 253 skills grouplocomotor, nonlocomotor, manipulative
- 268 locomotor skillswalking, running, jumping, hopping, galloping, sliding, leaping, skipping
- 278 nonlocomotor skillsturning, swinging, swaying, bending, pushing, pulling, stretching, twisting
- 286 manipulative skillsthrowing, catching, striking, dribbling, kicking, ball rolling
- 29Locomotor movementsare last to be acquired
- 30Difference btw hopping and jumpinghopping is continuous up and down on one foot jumping is up off of one foot and landing on two feet
- 31Throwingone or both arms used to thrust an object away from the body
Overhand throwing pattern is the hardest motor skill to master - 32Catchingtracking an object, stopping its momentum, gain control with hands
- 33DribblingSkill that propels a ball in a downward direction
- 34Kickingskill using foot to strike an object
- 35Ball rollingimparting force to an object so that it maintains contact with the surface
- 36Bimanual controlcontrolled use of 2 hands
- 37SymmetricaBoth hands perform same movements
- 38Asymmetricalhands make different movements 1 hand is manipulator 1 is the stabilizer
- 39Sex related differencesmales continue to improve motor performance through adolescence while females peak at age 14
- 402 most influential development factorsyouth sports and physical education
- 41Blocked practicesingle motor skill within a single motor program
- 42Variable practicemultiple motor skills within a single motor program
- 43Random practicemultiple motor skills and programs randomly repeated
- 44Children begin to use fundamental movements acquired in early childhood atage 7-17
- 452 distinguishing milestones: peak performance and performance regression
- 46Peak performanceages 25-30
- 473 influencing factors by peak performancemuscular strength, cardiorespiratory efficiency, processing speed
- 48Regression50% of decline is due to inactivity and poor health habits
- 494 areass of decline for regressionbalance, flexibility, skeletal tissue, increase in body fat
- 50most obvious change with ageis physiological function
- 51Assessmentprocess that involves measurement and evaluation
- 52Measurementcollection of information on which a decision is based
- 53Evalutationthe process of decision making regarding the value or worth of collected information
- 54Norm:designed to compare an individual characteristics with others of the same age
- 55Criteriondegree to which an individual achieves a specific level of development motor performance, or fitness
- 56Product:focused on performance outcome
- 57Processinvolves the measurement of form
- 58Authenticevaluates students abilities in real world contexts
- 59Purpose of assessmentdiagnose screening, determine status, program content, program evaluation, construction of norms, research, prediction, motivation
- 603 purposes:validity, measures whats intended to measure
reliability, repeatability of results
objectivity, scored identically by different examiners
