but does not pass the vocal cords into the airway
c. the baby has nasal regurgitation which enters into the
airway

Factors influencing the use of non-standardized d. Standardized tools require administering tools in a uniformed way and may
assessment methods may include all of the following require costly training so tools should be used often.
ethical reasons EXCEPT:

not exist for some activities or occupations (e.g.,
chewing, sleeping)
b. Some settings are natural (e.g., home, school,
community) and may easily provide peer data or activity
analysis during activities/occupations

appropriate due to the person's specific illness, medical
condition, injury, or cognition
d. Standardized tools require administering tools in a
uniformed way and may require costly training so tools
should be used often.

facilitate or restrict participation and is based on a child's
individual developmental trajectory.
a. child occupational self assessment

c. pediatric evaluation of disability inventory CAT
d. short child occupational profile
Which reflex is elicited by placing an infant in prone d. symmetrical tonic neck reflex
position supported by the trunk over the examiner's
knee. The examiner passively flexes then extends the
infant's head or facilitates movement of the head with
movement of a toy to encourage neck flexion and
extension. In older children, this reflex can be assessed
by observing the child in a quadruped position. Flexion of
the head (chin tuck) produces flexion of the upper
extremities, extension of the lower extremities. Extension
of the head produces extension of the upper extremities
and flexion of the lower extremities.

sequential processing as children with ASD and typical
peers
