Stimulus: rapidly lower infant toward supporting surface while suspended vertically
Response: extension of the lower extremities
Relevance: allows accurate placement of lower extremities in anticipation of a surface - Forward Parachute (protective extension forward) Relfex
-
Onset: 6-9 months
Integration: persists
Stimulus: suddenly tip infant forward toward supporting surface while vertically suspended
Response: sudden extension of the upper extremities, hand opening, and neck extension
Relevance: allows accurate placement of upper extremities in the anticipation of supporting surface to prevent a fall - Sideward Parachute (protective extension sideward) Reflex
-
Onset: 7 months
Integration: persists
Stimulus: quickly but firmly tip infant off balance to the side while in seated position
Response: arm extension and abduction to the side
Relevance: protects body to prevent a fall; supports body for unilateral use of opposite arm - Backward Parachute (protective extension backward) Reflex
-
Onset: 9-10 months
Integration: persists
Stimulus: quickly but firmly tip infant off balance backward
Response: backward arm extension or arm extension to one side
Relevance: protects body to prevent a fall; unilaterally facilitates spinal rotation - Prone Tilting Reflex
-
Onset: 5 months
Integration: persists
Stimulus: after positioning infant in prone, slowly raises one side of the supporting surface
Response: curving of the spine toward the raised side, abduction/extension of arms and legs
Relevance: maintain equilibrium without arm support; facilitate postural adjustments in all positions - Supine tilting and Sitting tilting Reflexes
-
Onset: 7-8 months
Integration: persists
Stimulus: after positioning infant in sitting or supine, slowly raise one side of the supporting surface
Response: curving of the spine toward the raised side; abduction/extension of arms and legs
Relevance: maintain equilibrium without arm support; facilitate postural adjustments in all positions - Quadruped Tilting Reflex
-
Onset: 9-12 months
Integration: persists
Stimulus: after positioning infant on all fours, slowly raise one side of the supporting surface
Response: curving of the spine toward the raised side, abduction/extension of arms and legs
Relevance: maintain equilibrium without arm support; facilitate postural adjustments in all positions - Standing tilting Reflex
-
Onset: 12-21 months
Integration: persists
Stimulus: after positioning infant standing, slowly raise one side of the supporting surface
Response: curving of the spine toward the raised side, abduction/extension of arms and legs
Relevance: maintain equilibrium without arm support, facilitate postural adjustments in all positions - Left Hemisphere
