Assessment of Motor Development in Childhood: Contemporary Issues, Considerations, and Future Directions

Priscila Tamplain, E. Kipling Webster, Ali Brian, and Nadia C. Valentini

Vinçon, Green, Blank, and Jenetzky ( 2017 ) investigated ecological validity of the BOT-2 items in a German population of children, demonstrating

Humans Versus Robots: Converting Golf Putter Trajectories for Robotic Guidance

Stephen R. Bested, Valentin A. Crainic, Gerome A. Manson, and Luc Tremblay

trajectory can be for motivational purposes, as being told that one is exposed to an improved version of themself should yield a lower perceived task difficulty and higher perception of mastery versus being exposed to an expert’s trajectory. In our experience, participants were happy to train with the robot

The Effect of Rewards and Punishments on Learning Action Selection and Execution Components of a Motor Skill

Mariane F.B. Bacelar, Keith R. Lohse, and Matthew W. Miller

learning task and the golf putting task exhibited learning effects, which could posteriorly be moderated by other factors. Participants Seventeen young adults (7 females, M age  = 21.0 years, 95% CI [20.1, 22.0]) without any previous experience with either task and who were naïve to the purpose of the

The Path to Translating Focus of Attention Research Into Canadian Physiotherapy, Part 4: Sequentially Linking Assessment Outcomes Into a Chain of Evidence Supporting the Workshop

Julia Hussien, Liza Khodko, Cooper Macdonald, and Diane Ste-Marie

learners who would thus respond well to independent learning opportunities, in which they could draw upon their own experiences, and for which the learning could be applied directly to their practice. The research outcome of Part 3 was a two-component online workshop designed with an asynchronous component

Dyad Training in a Perceptual-Motor Task: “Two Pairs of Eyes Are Better Than One”

Stefan Panzer, Christina Pfeifer, Peter Leinen, and Charles Shea

simultaneously prepares and executes an impending movement. This means, information that was observed or communicated in the intertrial dialog, that has the promise to increase performance, can be tested immediately in the following physical practice trial. This theoretical assumption is close to experiences

Self-Perceptions, Parents’ Perceptions, Metaperceptions, and Locomotor Skills in Adolescents With Visual Impairments: A Preliminary Investigation

Alexandra Stribing, Adam Pennell, Emily N. Gilbert, Lauren J. Lieberman, and Ali Brian

Approximately 56,000 children and adolescents in the United States experience visual impairments (VI), to a varying degree, which may include blindness in an educational setting ( American Foundation for the Blind, 2017 ; American Printing House for the Blind, 2018 ). Individuals with VI are 1

Essential Motor Skills and Evidence-Based Activities for Enhancing Child Motor Skill Development During Out-of-School Time Programming: An Expert Consensus Study

Peter Stoepker, Duke Biber, Brian Dauenhauer, Leah E. Robinson, and David A. Dzewaltowski

lifelong PA and MC had a positive impact on child motor skill performance ( Invernizzi et al., 2019 ). Even though there has been promise in providing during-school motor skill interventions, there is still a need to provide alternative options for children to engage in movement experiences to increase PA

measure the brain signals (e.g., mu-wave or mu rhythm). They show a strong relationship between an infant’s action experience (i.e., crawling) and the perception of others performing that action ( van Elk, van Schie, Hunnius, Vesper, & Bekkering, 2008 ). In addition, EEG measures have shown infants

The Use of OPTIMAL Instructions and Feedback in Physical Education Settings

Thomas Simpson, Lorcan Cronin, Paul Ellison, Thomas Hawkins, Evelyn Carnegie, and David Marchant

behaviors of PE teachers undertaking their normal teaching activity, in relation to the implementation of OPTIMAL theory (i.e., external focus, enhanced expectancies and autonomy support). Methods Participants Seven PE teachers (four males, three females; mean age: 39.29 ± 7.19 years; teaching experience
