Object exploration is considered a driver of motor, cognitive, and social development. However, little is known about how early childhood education and care settings facilitate object exploration. This study examined if children's exploration of objects during free play was facilitated by the use of particular spatial components (floor, tables,…

González, Meliza; Loose, Tianna; Liz, Maite; Pérez, Mónica; Rodríguez-Vinçon, Juan I.; Tomás-Llerena, Clementina; Vásquez-Echeverría, Alejandro – Child Development, 2022
The COVID-19 context has created the most severe disruption to education systems in recent history. Its impact on child development was estimated comparing two cohorts of 4- to 6-year-old Uruguayan children: control (n = 34,355, 48.87% girls) and COVID cohort (n = 30,158, 48.95% girls) assessed between 2018 and 2020 in three waves, by a routinely…

West, Kelsey L. – Child Development, 2019
Studies of infant motor development in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have increased in recent years. This article synthesized this literature through meta-analysis to assess (a) whether infant motor ability differs in ASD relative to neurotypical controls; and (b) whether motor ability and communication are related in infants with ASD. Study 1…

Hoyer, Roxane S.; Elshafei, Hesham; Hemmerlin, Julie; Bouet, Romain; Bidet-Caulet, Aurélie – Child Development, 2021
Distractibility is the propensity to behaviorally react to irrelevant information. Although children are more distractible the younger they are, the precise contribution of attentional and motor components to distractibility and their developmental trajectories have not been characterized yet. We used a new behavioral paradigm to identify the…

Simpson, Andrew; Al Ruwaili, Reshaa; Jolley, Richard; Leonard, Hayley; Geeraert, Nicolas; Riggs, Kevin J. – Child Development, 2019
Previous research shows that the development of response inhibition and drawing skill are linked. The current research investigated whether this association reflects a more fundamental link between response inhibition and motor control. In Experiment 1, 3- and 4-year-olds (n = 100) were tested on measures of inhibition, fine motor control, and…

Fish Oil Supplementation in Pregnancy and Neurodevelopment in Childhood--A Randomized Clinical Trial
Sass, Laerke; Bjarnadóttir, Elín; Stokholm, Jakob; Chawes, Bo; Vinding, Rebecca K.; Mora-Jensen, Anna-Rosa C.; Thorsen, Jonathan; Noergaard, Sarah; Ebdrup, Bjørn H.; Jepsen, Jens R.M.; Fagerlund, Birgitte; Bønnelykke, Klaus; Lauritzen, Lotte; Bisgaard, Hans – Child Development, 2021
A double-blind randomized controlled trial of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (n-3 LCPUFA) supplementation or matching placebo during third trimester of pregnancy was conducted within the COPSAC[subscript 2010] mother-child cohort consisting of 736 women and their children. The objective was to determine if maternal n-3 LCPUFA pregnancy…

Grace, Tegan; Bulsara, Max; Robinson, Monique; Hands, Beth – Child Development, 2016
The number and timing of stressors experienced during pregnancy were investigated using longitudinal data from the Western Australian Pregnancy (Raine) Study cohort (N = 2,900). Motor development data were collected at 10 (n = 1,622), 14 (n = 1,584), and 17 (n = 1,222) years using the McCarron Assessment of Neuromuscular Development. Linear mixed…
