Spontaneous, random baby movements might help in the development of the sensorimotor system, i.e., our ability to control our muscles, movement, and coordination, according to new research led by the ...

Researchers propose a novel learning rule to explain the development of sensorimotor intelligence. It is fascinating to observe a robot exploring its physical possibilities and surroundings, and ...

Human Development, Vol. 35, No. 4 (1992), pp. 226-240 (15 pages) The assumption that motor activity and physical manipulation play a central role in early development is evaluated in light of a number ...

When her daughter was born two-and-a-half years ago, Mary Goldsberry-Troyer eagerly watched for the typical developmental milestones in her firstborn. She noted when Vivi smiled, rolled over, and took ...

Those seemingly random kicks or wiggles a newborn baby makes have a purpose. With each movement, the baby is developing its sensorimotor system, which it will later use to perform sequential movements ...

Spontaneous, random baby movements aid development of their sensorimotor system, according to new research led by the University of Tokyo. Detailed motion capture of newborns and infants was combined ...

Previous accounts of the development of triadic attention identify a “curious” shift around nine to twelve months. We introduce a novel approach inspired by distributed and embodied cognition ...
