The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison02:57

The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison

56.1K
According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

Structural Joints: Synovial Joints01:16

Structural Joints: Synovial Joints

6.8K
Synovial joints are the most common type of joint in the body. A key structural characteristic for a synovial joint is the presence of a joint cavity. This fluid-filled space is where the articulating surfaces of the bones contact each other. Also, unlike fibrous or cartilaginous joints, the articulating bone surfaces at a synovial joint are not directly connected to each other with fibrous connective tissue or cartilage. This gives the bones of a synovial joint the ability to move smoothly...

Structural Joints: Fibrous Joints01:03

Structural Joints: Fibrous Joints

3.8K
Fibrous joints are a type of joint where the bones are connected by fibrous connective tissue. These joints provide stability and minimal to no movement between the articulating bones. There are three types of fibrous joints.
Suture
All the bones of the skull, except for the mandible, are joined to each other by a fibrous joint called a suture. The fibrous connective tissue found at a suture strongly unites the adjacent skull bones and thus helps to protect the brain and form the face. In...

Structural Joints: Cartilaginous Joints

4.0K
As the name indicates, at a cartilaginous joint, the adjacent bones are united by cartilage, a tough but flexible type of connective tissue. Unlike synovial joints, these types of joints lack a joint cavity and involve bones joined together by either hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage.
There are two types of cartilaginous joints:
Synchondrosis
A synchondrosis ("joined by cartilage") is a cartilaginous joint where bones are connected by hyaline cartilage. Synchondrosis may be temporary...

Joints01:26

Joints

35.7K
Joints, also called articulations or articular surfaces, are points at which ligaments or other tissues connect adjacent bones. Joints permit movement and stability, and can be classified based on their structure or function.
Structural joint classifications are based on the material that makes up the joint as well as whether or not the joint contains a space between the bones. Joints are structurally classified as fibrous, cartilaginous, or synovial.
Fibrous Joints Are Immovable
The bones of a...

Method of Joints01:30

Method of Joints

1.3K
The method of joints is a commonly used technique to analyze the forces in structural trusses. The method is based on the principle of equilibrium, which assumes that the truss members are connected by frictionless pins. The forces at each joint can be determined by considering the equilibrium of the forces acting on that joint.
Since plane truss members are in the same plane, each joint is subjected to a coplanar and concurrent force system. To apply the method of joints, the first step is to...

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Developmental Pediatrics
  • Sensory Neuroscience

Background:

  • Assessing proprioception in toddlers is challenging due to developmental limitations in following directions.
  • Existing methods are not suitable for evaluating proprioception in pre-verbal children.
  • Proprioception is crucial for motor control and spatial awareness.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and evaluate a novel proprioception examination method for toddlers.
  • To determine the cooperation levels of healthy toddlers with the new test.
  • To assess the feasibility of using this test in a clinical setting for young children.

Main Methods:

  • A sticker-based test was developed involving blindfolded toddlers reaching for a sticker on their hand after it was moved.
  • The test was administered to 12- to 36-month-old healthy children.
  • Cooperation and successful task completion were recorded and analyzed in relation to age.

Main Results:

  • Older toddlers (within the 12-36 month range) showed better cooperation with the test.
  • The ability to successfully locate the sticker was not significantly dependent on the child's age.
  • The test was optimized for clinical efficiency.

Conclusions:

  • The novel sticker-based examination is a viable method for assessing proprioception in toddlers.
  • The test's effectiveness is consistent across the studied age range (12-36 months).
  • Further research is needed to assess the test's sensitivity in children with known proprioceptive deficits.
