Spatial orientation expands to include the dining room and the garden. A sense of confinement is formed and persistent rattling and banging may follow. Blocking or covering windows can prevent this sometimes. Banging can be interrupted by: taking them out of the unit or out of doors, walking them around in a circle and escorting them back in.
Self-protective reactions to hit, kick or grasp a target are excluded from linear information because they do not seem to be processed in the cerebral cortex within ACL 2.8 and below. Some use of linear information may be observed when they reach for an object that they want to hold with one or both hands. Reaching is usually limited to food, drinking fluids and two or three objects that they like to hold or do exercises with.
