Functions/dysfunctions

MISSING TRAUMA

n/a

Behavioral

Function of the Ego & Mature Ego

psychodynamic

Function - “…use cognitive processes to reason, test hypotheses, and develop accurate self-awareness and realistic perceptions of others and the environment”

Dysfunction - “…by the presence of maladaptive behaviors, which are presumed to have been caused by maladaptive learning”

CBT

the levels: automatic, postural, manual, goal-directed, exploratory, planned

Allen’s Cog Levels (cognitive disabilities)

Function - ability to receive, elaborate, and monitor incoming information and the flexibility to use and apply one’s analysis of information across task boundaries & Higher level cognitive (abilities)

Dysfunction - defects in: using processing strategies, self-monitoring, memory, decreased generalization

Togila’s Dynamic interactional

Function - Underlying skills and client factors support occupational performance

Dysfunction - Underlying impairments impact occupational performance and independence

Biomechanical

Not stated but: this FOR is Appropriate for those that have remaining disabilities that are not likely to be remediated (something chronic or long-standing)  

Rehabilitative

Traditional View - Comparison of developmental milestones to chronological age

Many question if we should continue this definition of dysfunction / function due to cultural influence, interests of the child, and comparison to “typical”

Rather we examine developmental level–“determines the level of function and adaptation to environment”

developmental

Function = if a child can perform the necessary task within their environment  

Dysfunction = unable to perform or difficulty performing task w/in that environment

Motor skill acquisition

ROM & dissociation, Alignment & patterns of weightbearing , Postural & muscle tone, Balance & postural control, Coordination, Sensory disturbances

Neurodevelopmental

emotional regulation, habits & roles, home environment, school environment, peer environment, peer intersections

social participation

Do the following visual skills support occupational performance:

1. Visual Reception Skills (Oculomotor)

2. Visual Attention

3. Visual Memory

4. Visual Discrimination (Object)

5. Visual Spatial

6. Visual Motor Integration

visual

sensory reactivity, sensory perception, postural-ocular control, vestibular bilateral integration & sequencing, praxis

Ayres sensory integration

Not stated: but it could possibly be involving of a sensory system not working properly sine that would impact a person’s quality of life

STAR

symbols, grasp, use of writing tools, legibility

handwriting
