Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The term to describe the tendency to stay in the patterns of the status quo is an attractor state. Andrew's tendency to sit in a posterior pelvic tilt may be due to being in an attractor state where his body has found a stable and comfortable position, but it prevents him from achieving other motor milestones. The other options, dynamic system, affordances, and degree of freedom, are concepts related to motor development but do not specifically address the tendency to stay in a particular pattern.
