This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Allen Cognitive Approach FoR, Allen Cognitive Approach Tenents Per Authors: Initially based on Piaget, however was reformulated to be consistent with of Information processing, Per Authors: Initially based on Piaget, however was reformulated to be consistent with of Information processing Definition of Cognition 1. Hierarchical description of different levels of functional capabilities, 1. Assess occupational consequences of cognitive limitations 2. Assess Cognitive components (Allen Cognitive Level Screens, Routine Task Inventory, Cognitive Performance test, Allen Diagnotistic Module) 3. Assess actual performance of the client doing the task - what strategies, context conditions, probes to response to cues, mediation, feedback, and/or tasl alterations 4. identifying the client's problem solving ability Intervention Strategies 1. Restorative:- improve cognition through task involvement and training 2. Compensotory-provide just right challenge by adapting task and environment to support i individual performance 3. Assitance from caregiveers- teachh for strategies: a. facilitate: give sensory cues appropriate to level b.probe: ask focused questions to encourage problem solving c. observe: let them try new behaviors d. rescue: when frustrated, correct error and do step for client, Per Authors: Initially based on Piaget, however was reformulated to be consistent with of Information processing Assumptions 1. Neurological injury or disease impairs cognition, imposing restrictions on peformance and learning potential 2. Perception cannot be separated from cognition 3. How one learns to process perceptual information is mediated by social environment 4. Cognitive impairments reflect decreased efficiecy to process strategies to select, discriminate, organize, and structure incoming information. 5. Cognitive problems are dependent on task and environmental context 6. engagement in activities and participation can be maximized be assessing activity limitations and adapting both the task and contextual factors, Allen Cognitive Approach Assessment 1.
