We should also stress that these types of graphs depict behavior in a consistent environment. All participants are assessed the same way during each testing session. While conceptually an intratask developmental sequence is more characteristic of a population than of an individual, some sequences, such as throwing for force, are quite robust for the individual. 7). When studying individual progress, however, context needs to be considered. Fischer and Silvern (1985) made an important distinction between a person’s functional level in a sequence and a person’s optimal level in that same sequence.

When studying individual progress, however, context needs to be considered. Fischer and Silvern (1985) made an important distinction between a person’s functional level in a sequence and a person’s optimal level in that same sequence. The optimal level is the movement that a person can display when necessary; the functional level is what a person shows as everyday behavior.

The motion of the trunk and arm closely resembles that of stages 1 and 3. The stride forward with the contralateral leg provides for a wide base of support and greater stability during force production. Stage 5 The weight shifts entirely to the rear leg as it pivots in response to the rotating joints above it. The throwing hand moves in a downward arc and then backward as the opposite leg moves forward. Concurrently, the hip and spine rotate into position for forceful derotation. As the contralateral foot strikes the surface, the hips, spine, and shoulder begin to derotate in sequence.
