In some approaches to physical therapy, the asymmetrical tonic neck reflex (ATNR) is viewed as a reflex response to turning of the head. [70] The test is composed of six items: (1) slow motion, (2) finger-nose touching, (3) rapid forearm rotation, (4) prone extension, (5) quadruped testing of the asymmetrical tonic neck reflex, and (6) supine flexion posture. Occasionally, these students even appeared to be "stuck" to one side, perhaps as an influence of the asymmetrical tonic neck reflex (ATNR). |
