The pattern of findings suggests that infants with efficient modes of locomotion are more likely than others to profit from the experiences generated by locomotion. (RJC)

By comparing the profile of "g" loadings for a set of psychometric test scores, it is shown that general intelligence is related to timed performance measures from perceptual-motor tasks, more strongly on more complex tasks. The profile of the "g" loadings was predictable from the response-time (RT) psychometric test time correlations for four RT…

A vision evaluation and enhancement program was used with 59 elementary multihandicapped students to prevent future problems in educational and social development. Ss with eye-movement difficulties, eye-hand coordination problems and/or difficulty in visual perception skills improved after program participation. (CL)

Five- and nine-month-olds (10 per group) were presented with horizontally and vertically oriented dowels to determine their development of prehensile adjustments. Nine-month-olds rotated their heads appropriately, whereas five-month-olds did so mostly after tactual contact. Results focused on the development of visual control of prehensile…

The article describes ways in which visual-tactual integration develops in young children and explains reasons for some children's failure. Procedures for teaching basic writing skills such as hand position, grouping of letters, and finally the writing of words are discussed. (CL)
