James, Karin Harman – Developmental Science, 2010
Since Broca's studies on language processing, cortical functional specialization has been considered to be integral to efficient neural processing. A fundamental question in cognitive neuroscience concerns the type of learning that is required for functional specialization to develop. To address this issue with respect to the development of neural…

Concomitant Effects of Visual, Motor, and Verbal Experiences in Young Children's Concept Development

Nelson, Gordon K. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1976
Experimental conditions consisting of visual experience, visual plus motor training, visual plus verbal-orienting instruction, visual plus motor plus verbal, and a control group were used to study young children's concept development. Assessment was based on discriminating and remembering positive concept instances and classifying concept…

Mann, Marlis – 1972
This speech offers a guide to identifying and teaching high-risk children, those who exhibit a lag in development severe enough to be a handicap in learning. The high-risk children focused on are those whose developmental lag is frequently not recognized until they fail in school. The two major areas of neurodevelopmental learning disorders are in…

Kannegieter, Ruthan Brinkerhoff – 1968
This study involved fifty-eight 3-year-olds. It sought to determine whether the preschoolers could learn to discriminate visually the critical elements of shape through a program of perceptual-motor training, transfer such knowledge to similar but different shapes, and then resist the process of forgetting the critical elements. The children were…

Jens, Dorothy – 1970
Project Genesis is a preventative program which tries to identify potential learning deviancies before children enter kindergarten, and which provides individualized programming to offset future learning problems. Clinics held in the spring test each child entering kindergarten the following fall on perceptual-motor abilities, hearing, speech,…

Parham, L. Diane – Occupational Therapy in Health Care, 1987
A rationale and procedures are presented for occupational therapy evaluation of the preschooler whose problems suggest dyspraxia. Two evaluative domains are examined: sensory processing (assessment of tactile, proprioceptive, vestibular, auditory and visual functions) and praxis (ideation, motor planning and execution). Procedures include…

Karnes, Merle B. – 1968
Developed to improve the language skills of culturally disadvantaged preschool children, the activities can be adapted for use with the retarded or those with learning disabilities. Communication processes considered are derived from the Illinois Test of Psycholinguistic Abilities. Activities are described for the following areas: listening skills…
