KINES 199 FINAL EXAM
you learn in class that most children develop a three point pencil grip at a certain age.
you are talking with your sister, who claims that her son achieved that skill one year
earlier, so your teacher must be wrong. to counter her argument you tell her about:
universality vs. variability
the quantitative increase in size or magnitude is
growthr Read More
an example of an individual structural constraint is
arm length
an example of an individual functional constraint is
motivation
the difference between task and environmental constraints is
environmental constraints could cover a number of different tasks
for the purpose of this class the definition of aging is
processes that occur with passage of time and leading to loss of function or reduction of
adaptability
a major difference between motor learning and motor development is that
motor learning results from practice
using a smaller basketball for women is an example of
adjusting a task constraint to counteract an individual structural constraint
I am playing tennis against a younger and less experienced player. I change the rules
so that the ball is considered in bounds even if it goes outside the singles line (but stays
within the double line). this is an example of changing a
task constraint
the maturational perspective explains developmental change as a function of
maturational processes, in particular through the development of the
central nervous system
which are the two branches of ecological perspective
dynamic systems and perception-action
the perception-action approach uses which of the following terms
body scaling and affordance
you and I can ride a bicycle; a 6 month old child might have fun spinning the pedals. this
is an example of
affordances
an experimental design in which you test the same group of the people over many years
is
longitudinal
you and an ant are racing across a gravel parking lot. which of the following concepts
makes it most likely that you will win
body scaling
I am interested in whether playing football impacts social development in a specific way.
I divide students in two groups. one plays football and the other plays cards. I measure
, social development with a survey afterwards. identify the independent variables and
dependent variables
type of game played is the IV and the social dev score is the DV
what could be considered individual constraints, rare limiters, on early motor
development
posture and strength
the paper on negative PE experiences showed
both men and women who experienced being picked last in PE class exercised less
than others
which of the following values of correlation indicates the best relationship between two
variables
-.96
in a maximal ballistic effort (such as kicking a ball as hard as possible), the movement
involves multiple body parts that act in a sequence. this sequence is known as
an open kinetic chain
the fetal stage occurs in which of the following time periods
8 weeks to birth
hyperplasia is
an increase in the absolute number of cells
differentiation is
the process wherein cells become specialized, forming specific tissues and organs
anomalies present at birth are called
congenital defects
growth occurs in the following ways
proximodistal, cephalocaudal, from the head down
the capacity for cells and/or bodily systems to take on a new function as needed is
termed:
plasticity
the developing child is termed a(n) _____________ from the second to eight week of
prenatal development
embryo
the term for the substances foreign to the human body that have detrimental effects on
human development is
teratogens
a _________ system is one whose development lags behind other systems and can
delay the emergence of a motor skill
rate limiting
the epiphyseal, or growth, plates close at relatively younger ages in which of the
following groups
girls and early maturers
what period shows the most rapid increase in adipose tissue
during the first 6 postnatal months in both boys and girls and in preadolescence and
adolescence in girls
which of the following is true of muscle type 1 and type 2 development
although at birth 20% of muscle fibers are not yet specialized, muscle fiber type is
genetically determined and little influenced by nurture
