RESNA ATP STUDY EXAM QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS (VERIFIED AND
UPDATED)
Allophones - ANS Combinations of phonemes
Encoding - ANS Organized info to be stored in long term memory
Endurance - ANS The length of time an individual can sustain a force and repeat an action
over time
Engrams - ANS Muscle memory. The steps and processes for an activity/ movement
becoming automatic requiring little or no effort.
Equilibrium - ANS Reactions that provide balance when a person's COG is disturbed
Morphology - ANS System of rules for organizing morphemes. They are the smallest
meaningful units of language.
Motor learning - ANS As activity or movement is repeated speed and accuracy improves
@2026/2027 ALLRIGHTS RESERVED.
,Norm- referenced measurement - ANS Ranks the performance of a person against a sample
of other people who have completed the same task
Motor control - ANS Central processing functions that lead to planned and coordinated
movement or motor outputs
Pragmatics - ANS The relationship between language and language users.
Primitive reflexes - ANS 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 - ANS 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 - ANS 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 - ANS 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 - ANS Support the heads vertical position, as well as alignment of the head
and trunk or trunk and pelvis
Semantics - ANS Definition of a word
Syntax. - ANS The rules for organizing words into meaningful utterances

, Versatility - ANS Control sites that are used in more than one way and for more than one
action
ASL - ANS American Sign Language
BIPAP. - ANS bilevel positive airway pressure
EADL - ANS Electronic aids to daily living
FM - ANS Frequency modulation
HAAT - ANS Human activity assistive technology model
IADL - ANS Industrial/instrumental activities of daily living
ICF. - ANS international classification of functioning, disability and health
MAT. - ANS Manual assessment technique
MRADL - ANS Mobility related activities of daily living
MRI. - ANS Magnetic resonance imaging
OCR. - ANS Optical character recognition.
Pet Scan - ANS Positron emission tomography scan
