Kim, Hyun-Woong; Lee, Kyung Myun; Lee, Yune Sang – Developmental Science, 2023
We studied the role of sensorimotor and working memory systems in supporting development of perceptual rhythm processing with 119 participants aged 7-12 years. Children were assessed for their abilities in sensorimotor synchronization (SMS; beat tapping), auditory working memory (AWM; digit span), and rhythm discrimination (RD; same/different…

Vilain, Anne; Dole, Marjorie; Loevenbruck, Hélène; Pascalis, Olivier; Schwartz, Jean-Luc – Developmental Science, 2019
The influence of motor knowledge on speech perception is well established, but the functional role of the motor system is still poorly understood. The present study explores the hypothesis that speech production abilities may help infants discover phonetic categories in the speech stream, in spite of coarticulation effects. To this aim, we…

Kobayashi, Tessei; Hiraki, Kazuo; Hasegawa, Toshikazu – Developmental Science, 2005
Recent studies have reported that preverbal infants are able to discriminate between numerosities of sets presented within a particular modality. There is still debate, however, over whether they are able to perform intermodal numerosity matching, i.e. to relate numerosities of sets presented with different sensory modalities. The present study…
