Abstract

Purpose: This study assessed everyday technology to help eight participants with intellectual and sensory-motor disabilities access stimulation via functional arm/hand responses and improved body posture.

Methods: An ABABB¹BB¹ design was used for each participant, with A representing baseline phases, B intervention phases in which arm/hand responses led to a 12-s stimulation, and B¹ intervention phases in which the stimulation for arm/hand responses was conditional on an improved/correct torso and head posture. The technology involved a Samsung Galaxy A10 smartphone fitted with Google Assistant and MacroDroid, a mini voice-recording device, and a portable mini voice amplifier.

Results: All participants had a large increase in arm/hand responses from the baseline periods to the B and B¹ phases. They also had a large increase in correct posture from the B phases to the B¹ phases.

Conclusion: This technology-aided approach may be a helpful resource for people similar to the participants of this study.

通过功能性运动反应和改善身体姿势来帮助智力和其他残疾人士获得刺激的日常技术。

目的:本研究评估了日常技术，以帮助8名智力和感觉运动障碍的参与者通过功能性手臂/手反应和改善的身体姿势获得刺激。方法:每个参与者采用ABABB1BB1设计，其中A代表基线阶段，B干预阶段，手臂/手反应导致12秒的刺激，B1干预阶段，手臂/手反应的刺激以改善/正确的躯干和头部姿势为条件。这项技术涉及一款三星Galaxy A10智能手机，配备了谷歌助手和微型录音设备MacroDroid，以及一个便携式微型语音放大器。结果:从基线期到B和B1期，所有参与者的手臂/手反应都有很大的增加。从B阶段到B1阶段，他们的正确姿势也有很大的增加。结论:这种技术辅助方法可能为与本研究参与者相似的人提供有用的资源。

期刊介绍： Developmental Neurorehabilitation aims to enhance recovery, rehabilitation and education of people with brain injury, neurological disorders, and other developmental, physical and intellectual disabilities. Although there is an emphasis on childhood, developmental disability can be considered from a lifespan perspective. This perspective acknowledges that development occurs throughout a person’s life and thus a range of impairments or diseases can cause a disability that can affect development at any stage of life.
