RESNA ATP Exam Practice Questions and Answers (100% Pass)
Numeric Code - ✔️✔️AAC coding technique in which a number stands for a word, phrase, or
sentence. Communicate quickly with fewer keystrokes
Abbreviation Expansion - ✔️✔️AAC device automatically expands the abbreviation into the
expanded word. abd = abduction
Coverage Vocabularies - ✔️✔️provide basic communication topics as well as concepts for
people who cannot spell - words, symbols, or pictures
Acceleration Vocabularies - ✔️✔️intended to increase the rate of communication for people
who can spell - letter codes stand for words, phrases, and sentences
Semantic Encoding - ✔️✔️pictures/symbols/icons represent words, phrases, and sentences.
Icons have potential for multiple meanings
Predictive Selection - ✔️✔️Icon prediction feature used with scanning
Predictive Scanning - ✔️✔️predictive approach based on the frequency with which certain
letters follow others in English
Word Prediction and Word Completion - ✔️✔️displays words or phrases a user is typing based
on what has already been typed
Fixed Predictive Devices - ✔️✔️stored vocabulary that never changes - very predictable and
helps the user develop motor and cognitive patterns that make retrieval faster
Adaptive Predictive Devices - ✔️✔️change the order of words keeping most frequently used
words at the top of the list
Eye-Controlled Communication Systems - ✔️✔️for people with severe limb limitations but
good eye and head control.
Keyguard - ✔️✔️cover made of plexiglass or plastic that fits over a keyboard for people who
have difficulty pressing the right key or who produce extra movements as they move key to
key
Automatic Scanning - ✔️✔️device presents available choices continuously. Users must be able
to wait for selection and activate accurately at the correct time

Step scanning - ✔️✔️press switch to move from choice to choice. Must active another switch
or wait for acceptance time to elapse to choose. Motor fatigue has potential to be high with
this method
Inverse Scanning - ✔️✔️User holds switch to scan, releases to select
Instructions - ✔️✔️ATPs should provide written instructions for all equipment and make sure
it is accessible to client, cognitively and physically. Provide supplemental instructions if
necessary
Motor Skills Training Program (3 stages) - ✔️✔️1. Activate switch and associate switch with
result
2. Activate switch at a certain time consistently
3. Increase array that the user can consistently select in order to improve scanning selection
skills
HAAT - ✔️✔️Human Activity/Assistive Technology Model
Human
Activity
Assistive Technology
Context - ✔️✔️Operator using AT system properly?
Does the system allow user to meet goals for activity?
Does the system bridge the gap between the skills the consumer has and the skills needed for
the activity?
Does the system perform in the physical, social, and cultural environment?
Follow-up versus Follow-along - ✔️✔️Follow up = activities that occur immediately after AT
is installed
Follow-Along = activities that occur over a longer time span, often over a life-time
Scanning - ✔️✔️Most common type of INDIRECT selection in which consumer uses a switch
to select option when highlighted
Directed Scanning - ✔️✔️user initiates scanning process then selects option with a joystick or
other switch. This is the fastest indirect selection method
Acceptance Time - ✔️✔️the length of time a user pauses at a choice during directed scanning

Coded Access - ✔️✔️selection method in which the user completes a sequence of movements
as a code for each item in a selection set
Spatial Characteristics of a Control Interface - ✔️✔️size, shape, weight, number of targets, size
of targets, and amount of space between targets
Visual Perception - ✔️✔️process of assigning meaning to visual input
Environmental Interface - ✔️✔️the part of the assistive device that takes in information from
the world (cameras and microphones are examples)
Once an ATP has chosen a potential device... - ✔️✔️...ideally the ATP will conduct a trial with
the actual device
C3 SCI - ✔️✔️movement in chin and neck - will likely have ventillator
C4 SCI - ✔️✔️movement in neck and shoulders - may be able to use a shoulder, mouth, or
chin as a control site
C5 SCI - ✔️✔️movement in shoulders and can flex elbows
C6 SCI - ✔️✔️movement in shoulders, can flex elbows, extend wrists, and pronate forearms
C7 SCI - ✔️✔️can move shoulders, elbows, and wrists. LACKS GRASP
Dysarthria - ✔️✔️disorder of motor speech control in CNS or PNS. Characterized by
weakness, slowness, and lack of coordination in the muscles needed for speech
Apraxia - ✔️✔️Motor control limitation stemming from CNS - the inability to make
purposeful movements
Aphasia - ✔️✔️language disorder in both in speaking and understanding. stems from
neuromuscular conditions such as CP, ALS, TBI, CVA
Evaluation for WC should include - ✔️✔️range of motion, strength, motor control, skin
integrity, vision, perception, abilities (propulsion and transfers)
Goals for Seating Intervention - ✔️✔️normalizing tone
facilitating normal movement
maintain skeletal alignment and joint range of motion
Powered Mobility for Kids - ✔️✔️Children as young as 18 months can safely operate POVs -
these vehicles facilitate the child's social, cognitive, perceptual, and functional development.
Evaluation for Communication Device - ✔️✔️language comprehension and production
