What is the best mode of transmission for an EADL that controls a distant device such as a
garage
door opener? - ✔️✔️EADLs are electronic aids to daily living. However, radio frequency
transmission is the best choice for use with distant
devices like garage door openers because it is not impeded by most materials except for
grounded
metal.
What is the main difference between the RESNA Code of Ethics and the RESNA Standards
of
Practice for Assistive Technology Practitioners and Suppliers? - ✔️✔️The RESNA Code of
Ethics lists specific modes of moral conduct to be adhered to; it includes a
statement about informing and educating the public about assistive technology, in addition to
statements related to moral conduct that other disciplines use. (A) is incorrect because the
Standards of Practice actually is broader in scope that the Code. (B) is wrong because both
are
specific to the Assistive Technology field, although many of the standards are similar to those
given
in other medical standards of practice statements. (D) is incorrect since neither document
actually
outlines a specific quality assurance program.
What is the threshold for a person being tested by pure tone audiometry? - ✔️✔️In pure tone
audiometry, thresholds are generally determined at frequencies ranging from
0.125 to 8 kHz as the intensity in dB that the person hears each tone 50 percent of the time in
each
ear. Decibels represent the amplitude of sound. Intensity (A) also represents a threshold in
terms of
the frequency of audible sound; that is not the meaning of "threshold" in pure tone
audiometry, but

the test does give an idea of the range of audible frequencies. Option (C) is one threshold for
a
normal individual without hearing loss. Option (D) is what is evaluated in another
assessment, the
speech recognition test.
What stage of processing has the greatest effect on reaction time in an individual with
apraxia? - ✔️✔️The largest component contributing to reaction time is cognitive processing in
the central
nervous system (CNS). This is true for normal individuals (typically 70 to 300 milliseconds,
ms), but
it is amplified in people with apraxia who have an inability to perform complex movements
through
CNS involvement (such as with brain damage) but have intact peripheral systems. Normally
typical
times are up to 38 ms for sensory reception (A), from 2 to 100 ms for neural transmission to
the
CNS (B), 10 to 30 ms for neural conduction to the muscle (D), and 30 to 70 ms for a fourth
component, latency and activation time of the muscle.
Generally, what is the first step in ascertaining potential sites for control of assistive devices
in a
person with physical disabilities? - ✔️✔️The first step generally is to assess seven functional
hand grasp patterns, because the ideal
control sites are the hands and fingers. Option (B), in which the individual uses his or her
thumb to
point to corners or touch them by hand using a range and resolution board, is usually
performed
after the functional grasp patterns. If the person cannot use his or her hands for controls, then
range and resolution are determined using less preferable sites, which in decreasing order of
preference are the head (D) or mouth, the feet (C), and arms or legs. Sometimes the chin,
forehead,
or eye movement is used for control.

Which of the following is NOT an example of the use of AAC in a child with an autism
spectrum
disorder? - ✔️✔️Voice recognition software is really more a tool for people who have
cognitive disabilities that
curb their ability to write, such as those who have suffered traumatic brain injury (TBI). The
other
options are all examples of AAC, augmentative and alternative communication systems,
which are
appropriate for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). ASD is a developmental
disorder
primarily distinguished by challenges related to social interaction, verbal and nonverbal
communication, and repetitive, stereotypical conduct. Use of static visual symbols (A),
contextual
clues or prompts (B), and PECS, the Picture Exchange Communication System (C), have all
been
found useful for individuals with ASD.
Which of the following components is part of operational competence training by the ATP for
a
consumer receiving an assistive device? - ✔️✔️All of these responses are ways of facilitating
assistive technology performance once a device
is delivered to the consumer. Answer (C) describes training that facilitates operational
competence.
Option (A) describes what is involved in training the person in achieving strategic
competence,
which is application of the device. Performance aids (B) and written instructions (D) are not
training tools per se, but rather aids to help the person remember what to do.
Which of the following is NOT a means of measuring user satisfaction as an outcome
measure for
use of assistive technology? - ✔️✔️The only outcome measure listed that does not evaluate
user satisfaction is FIM, the Functional
