ACL

level 1 - automatic actions
Arousal to external cues Mostly instin­ctual behavior Examples: swallo­wing, diverting attention to stimuli Requires total assistance
level 2 - postural actions
Charac­terized by gross movement in response to propri­oce­ptive cues. Behavior is driven by comfort vs. discom­fort. Clients are unaware of the effects of their behavior on their surrou­ndings. Involves aimless pacing and wandering. Requires maximum assist­ance.
level 3 - manual actions
Clients grasp and use objects. Increased ability to discri­minate the external from the self. Impaired global condition May acquire new behaviors (learning) with repetitive long-term training. Lack concen­tration and require frequent redire­ction for tasks. Needs 24 hour superv­ision. Requires moderate assist­ance.
level 4 - goal directed actions
Clients can recognize the effects of their actions on their surrou­ndings. Relies on visual cues to learn and carry out goal-d­irected activi­ties. Have difficulty recogn­izing finer details. Lack cognitive skills to identify and proble­m-solve errors. No new learning or genera­lizing of tasks. Requires minimal assistance and superv­ision. Examples: preparing a snack, following a familiar route. 4.6: indepe­ndent living
level 5 - explor­atory actions
Uses trial-­and­-error for proble­m-s­olving. Learn by emulating demons­trated actions. May apply learning to other activities and situat­ions. Limited ability to organize, antici­pate, and plan. Have poor judgment and are impulsive. Benefits from external cues via superv­ision for planning. Requires stand-by assist­ance.
level 6 - planned actions
No global cognitive impair­ment. Normal functi­oning. Antici­pates and prevents errors. May still have physical limita­tions. Indepe­ndent
