RESNA 2026 CERTIFICATION STUDY GUIDE
COMPLETE QUESTIONS AND PRACTICE
REVIEW PACK
◉ Encoding. Answer: Organized info to be stored in long term
memory
◉ Endurance. Answer: The length of time an individual can sustain a
force and repeat an action over time
◉ Engrams. Answer: Muscle memory. The steps and processes for an
activity/ movement becoming automatic requiring little or no effort.
◉ Equilibrium. Answer: Reactions that provide balance when a
person's COG is disturbed
◉ Morphology. Answer: System of rules for organizing morphemes.
They are the smallest meaningful units of language.
◉ Motor learning. Answer: As activity or movement is repeated
speed and accuracy improves
,◉ Norm- referenced measurement. Answer: Ranks the performance
of a person against a sample of other people who have completed
the same task
◉ Motor control. Answer: Central processing functions that lead to
planned and coordinated movement or motor outputs
◉ Pragmatics. Answer: The relationship between language and
language users.
◉ Primitive reflexes. Answer: Immediate and automatic movements
that occur subconsciously usually in reaction to stimulation. These
reflexes help to control posture and basic movement when properly
integrated into volitional movements.
◉ Qualitative measurement. Answer: Data that is non-numeric and
would be difficult to express in numeric terms. Each individual has a
different experience and that it is important to provide the
opportunity to capture that experience. Propose is to describe and
understand the user's experience with the AT
◉ Quantitative measurement. Answer: Numeric data. Are objective
and are useful for documenting clients level of disability or
impairment. The assumption is that the construct of interest can be
measured in a meaningful way
, ◉ Resolution. Answer: The degree of fine control that an activity
requires. The smallest separation between two objects that a client
can reliably control with the chosen control site.
◉ Righting reactions. Answer: Support the heads vertical position,
as well as alignment of the head and trunk or trunk and pelvis
◉ Semantics. Answer: Definition of a word
◉ Syntax.. Answer: The rules for organizing words into meaningful
utterances
◉ Versatility. Answer: Control sites that are used in more than one
way and for more than one action
◉ ASL. Answer: American Sign Language
◉ BIPAP.. Answer: bilevel positive airway pressure
◉ EADL. Answer: Electronic aids to daily living
◉ FM. Answer: Frequency modulation
