This article concerns the purpose, function, and mechanisms of students' rhythmic behaviors as they solve embodied-interaction problems, specifically problems that require assimilating quantitative information structures embedded into the environment. Analyzing multimodal data of one student tackling a bimanual interaction design for proportion,…

Barbara A. Morrongiello; Amanda Cox; Lindsay Bryant – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2024
Unintentional injury represents a significant health threat to children, and infancy marks a particularly vulnerable stage. This multi-method study (questionnaire, diary) measured parents' (N = 143) use of three popular home-safety practices (teaching about safety, environment modification to reduce access to hazards, supervision) and child injury…

Yuanliang, Zhang; Yuan, Xue – Early Child Development and Care, 2023
In this study, 285 Chinese core journal papers involving early childhood sports in the CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure) database from 1993 to 2022 were selected as samples. Text mining and data statistical analysis tools, such as BICOMB2.0, SPSS22.0, UCINET6.0, EXCEL2016, and other research methods in bibliometrics, such as word…

Weber, Emily; Didier, Jennifer J. – Journal of Dance Education, 2023
Mirror visual feedback increases neural activity, enhances performance, and induces neuroplasticity; however, mixed results have been observed during the learning of motor skills. While mirrors are commonplace in Western dance education, further research is needed to determine how mirrors are used when learning dance phrases. This study measured…

Hassani, Fahimeh; Shahrbanian, Shahnaz; Shahidi, Seyed Houtan; Sheikh, Mahmoud – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2022
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is characterized by deficits in social communication, interaction, and stereotypical behaviours. Children with ASD have not enough opportunities to participate in physical activity (PA), which lead to increase fitness and health problem. The aim of this study was to compare two…

Weisberg, Alanna; Suk Lee, Hyun; Fung, Tak; Katz, Larry – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2022
The overhand throw is a complex whole-body motor skill that is fundamental to many sports and activities. When throwing properly, the momentum generated to complete the movement begins in the lower body and transfers through the trunk to the throwing arm. This proof-of-concept study's primary purpose was to evaluate the impact of the nonthrowing…

Shire, Katy A.; Atkinson, Jo; Williams, Emily A.; Pickavance, John; Magallón, Sara; Hill, Liam JB.; Waterman, Amanda H.; Sugden, David A.; Mon-Williams, Mark – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2021
We describe the development of an evidence-based motor intervention and an implementation pilot study in ten primary schools, involving 515 children (4-11 years). 'Helping Handwriting SHINE' (HHS) is a novel, school-led, group-based handwriting intervention. Teaching staff delivered HHS and provided feedback through a questionnaire, reporting…

Seefeldt, Vern; Haubenstricker, John; Branta, Crystal F.; Pfeiffer, Karin A. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2021
The Michigan State University (MSU) Motor Performance Study (MPS) was initiated in 1967 and was known across the United States for its unique blend of teaching, service, and research. Dr. Vern Seefeldt began the study as a means to begin research with children on-campus. The instructional portion of the program ended in 1999; data collection…

Duarte, Marcelo Gonçalves; Nobre, Glauber Carvalho; Gomes, Thábata Viviane Brandão; Benda, Rodolfo Novelino – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2021
Background: Studies related to the motor performance of children have suggested an interaction between organisms and the environment. Although motor development seems to be similar among people, the behavior is specific to the context that people are part of. Thus, the aim of this study was to compare the fundamental motor skill performance…

Kirby; Bahar Keceli-Kaysili; Tiffany G. Woynaroski – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Early differences in sensory responsiveness may contribute to difficulties with communication among autistic children; however, this theory has not been longitudinally assessed in infants at increased familial versus general population-level likelihood for autism (Sibs-autism vs. Sibs-NA) using a comprehensive battery of sensory responsiveness and…

Adé, David; Seifert, Ludovic; McGann, Marek; Davids, Keith – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2022
Introduction: Recently Baggs and Chemero (2018. "Radical Embodiment in Two Directions." "Synthese," 1-16. doi:10.1007/s11229-018-02020-9) advocated for the possible 'productive synthesis' between the enactive and the ecological approaches in order to understand and to explain how an agent behaves and interacts with the…

Crozier, Mitchell; Wasenius, Niko S.; Denize, Kathryn M.; da Silva, Danilo F.; Nagpal, Taniya S.; Adamo, Kristi B. – Health Education & Behavior, 2022
Background: Physical literacy-focused afterschool activity programs (ASAPs) can be an effective strategy to improve children's health-related parameters. We sought to compare physical activity, body composition, aerobic capacity, and fundamental movement skills between physical literacy-focused ASAP and a standard recreational ASAP. Method: A…

Mokaberian, Mansoureh; Noripour, Shamsollah; Sheikh, Mahmoud; Mills, Paul J. – Early Child Development and Care, 2022
Exploring effective interventions to compensate for developmental delay in premature neonates and reduce their mothers' anxiety is of great significance. This research aimed at examining the effects of body massage on Iranian premature neonates' physical and motor development, and on their mother's anxiety and attachment. Forty premature neonates…

Prior eye-tracking studies involving autistic individuals have focused on total looking time or proportion of looking time to key regions of interest. These studies have not examined another important feature, the ability to sustain attention to stimuli. In particular, the ability to sustain attention to a dynamic social stimulus might reflect…

Emamian, Amirhossein; Hashemi Oskouei, Alireza; Azreh, Rasoul; Carroll, Kevin – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2022
In previous studies, the acute effects of movement constraints on the countermovement jump performance are investigated; however, the longitudinal effects of implementing the constraint in a training regimen are not well studied. The purpose of this study was to examine the phenomenon of motor learning development due to application of task…
