Reaching with one arm to the other: Coordinating touch, proprioception, and action during infancy

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Reaching to target locations on the body has been studied little despite its importance for adaptive behaviors such as feeding, grooming, and indicating a source of discomfort. This behavior requires multisensory integration given that it involves coordination of touch, proprioception, and sometimes vision as well as action. Here we examined the origins of this skill by investigating how infants begin to localize targets on the body and the motor strategies by which they do so. Infants (7-21 months of age) were prompted to reach to a vibrating target placed at five arm/hand locations (elbow, crook of elbow, forearm, palm, and top of hand) one by one. To manually localize the target, infants needed to reach with one arm to the other. Results suggest that coordination increases with age in the strategies that infants used to localize body targets. Most infants showed bimanual coordination and usually moved the target arm toward the reaching arm to assist reaching. Furthermore, intersensory coordination increased with age. Simultaneous movements of the two arms increased with age, as did coordination between vision and reaching. The results provide new information about the development of multisensory integration during tactile localization and how such integration is linked to action. (C) 2019 Published by Elsevier Inc.
