What is propreoception? - ANSWER The sense of perception of the
relative positions and movements of parts of the body, independent of vision.
Proprepoceptive: Information about one's static position in space that is
received through the bones, joints and skeletal system. It is the sense that tells
people that their elbow is bent or straight and that they are holding their hand
in midline. Propreoceptive sensory receptors are located in the muscles,
tendons, and joints of the body.
It provides a foundation on which body awareness can develop to laterality,
directionality and spatial awareness.
What is kinesthetic awareness? - ANSWER The awareness of movement
that results from the interaction of tactile, proprioceptive and vestibular
inputs. Information about one's position in space that is received through the
muscles and during movement. Since all movement operates on a feedback
system, either visual or propriceptive or vestibular, kinesthesia sense provides
the only means by which people who are blind can identify and precisely
coordinate movement.
Difference between propreoception and kinesthetic? - ANSWER
Propreoception = joints, bones and skeletal system
kinestetic = information recieved through muscles during movement
What is an example of a poorly tuned proproceptive system? - ANSWER
The difficulty blind students have maintaining a 120 degree elbow bend when
performing the upper arm and forearm technique; Maintaining a constant and
, centred arc; to move only the write instead of the entire arm in two-point
touch technique; good posture;
How does motor skill development occur? - ANSWER 1. Cephalocauldal -
proceeds from head to toe
2. Proximal - distal - from trunk to arms and legs
3. Gross to fine - from general to specific; from large motions to smaller
motions
What role does vision play in sesorymotor development of children? -
ANSWER Vision, together with the vestibular and proprioceptive systems,
provides the feedback mechanism by which children develop, self-monitor,
refine and integrate sensorimotor skills into daily functioning. This may include
hand-eye coordination, bilateral coordination, and motor planning.
The sense of touch can detect six types of sensory information. - ANSWER
deep touch, light touch, vibration, pain, temperature and two-point touch.
What is the vestibular system? - ANSWER consists of three structures that
register the speed, force, direction of movement, effect of gravity on the body
and head position.
Plays an important role in the regulation of muscle tone and coordination,
balance and equilibrium, and arousal and attedending states.
It has a special relationship to ocular movements, allowing one to maintain
visual fixation despite head movement. It is the function that allows one to
fixate on a landmark while walking.
