Movement - fundamental aspect of occupational participation. Movement control: - interactions between individual, task and the environment. Environmental - CNS must be able to analyze activity being performed in order to effectively plan task specific movements. Can be divided into non-regulatory & regulatory. Non-regulatory: - Distractions such as background noise, changing lighting. Performance may be affected by these factors but movement does not have to conform to this. As an OT, you may adjust non regulatory environmental factors to enhance your clients performance. Golf match example, just before the player walks to the T box, they shush the crowd. These people are limiting the non-regulatory feature of background noise to help the player maximize performance. Regulatory: - size, shape, weight of an object being lifted or the type of terrain in which a person is walking. Task specific movements must conform to regulatory environmental factors in order for an individual to be able to successfully participate in activities. Person lifting a box, how would the person respond differently if the box was heavier or lighter? Maybe the task involves pushing rather than lifting? Both of these changes affect an individual's movement response
