This study aimed to examine associations between gross motor skills and executive functions (EF) in a large sample of Australian preschool-aged children. Of 566 children (mean age = 3.2 ± 0.4 years, 51.2% girls), locomotor, object control, and total skill competence were significantly associated with visual spatial working memory and inhibition (p…

Jang, Yujin; Hong, Yea-Ji – Early Child Development and Care, 2022
This study examined two subfactors of fundamental movement skills: locomotion skills and object-control skills. The direct and indirect effects of children's temperament on fundamental movement skills and the mediating effects of autonomy and self-regulation were examined. Participants included 278 pairs of 3- to 5-year-old children and their…

Bolduc, Jonathan; Gosselin, Nathalie; Chevrette, Tommy; Peretz, Isabelle – Early Child Development and Care, 2021
This study explores how music training impacts the development of inhibition control, phonological processing, and gross and fine motor skills in preschoolers. In a randomized controlled trial, 160 kindergarteners in a music programme, a motor programme, or a control group were examined. Children in the two experimental conditions took part in 19…

Rodríguez-Negro, Josune; Pesola, J. Arto; Yanci, Javier – Journal of Educational Research, 2020
The aim of this study was to carry out three intervention programs [i.e. balance intervention program (BIP), game based program (GBP) and drama learning program (DLP)] and to assess their effects on school-age children's cognitive (creativity, attention and impulse control) and motor (balance, aiming and catching) development. These functions were…

Sun, Jin; Kang, Rong – Early Child Development and Care, 2022
This study examined early development of cool and hot self-regulation and how they were related to Chinese preschoolers' early achievement. A total of 951 children (448 girls) aged three to five in Hong Kong participated in this study. Children's self-regulation was assessed with a battery of five tasks tapping either cool or hot self-regulation;…

De Coster, Lize; Wiersema, Jan R.; Deschrijver, Eliane; Brass, Marcel – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2018
Autism spectrum disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is associated with problems in empathy. Recent research suggests that impaired control over self-other overlap based on motor representations in individuals with autism spectrum disorder might underlie these difficulties. In order to investigate the relationship of self-other…

Stunting has been negatively associated with children's development. We examined the range of height by testing hypotheses: (a) height is positively associated with children's development, with associations moderated by inflammation and (b) home environments characterized by nurturance and early learning opportunities is positively associated with…
