THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN EXECUTIVE FUNCTION AND FINE MOTOR SKILLS IN 2-YEAR-OLD CHILDRENLucas J. Rooney (5930816) 09 December 2019 (has links)
Numerous studies point to a link between
fine motor skills and executive functioning (EF) in 3- to 6-year-olds (e.g.,
Oberer et al., 2017; MacDonald et al., 2016); however, it is unclear if this
relation exists at younger ages. Therefore, the current project aimed to
further explore EF and fine motor skills in typically developing 2-year-olds.
Participants completed the Minnesota Executive Function Scale (MEFS), Spin the
Pots, Shape Stroop, Snack Delay, and the Fine Motor portion (FMQ) of the
Peabody Developmental Motor Scale Version-2. These findings demonstrate a link
between general EF and visual-motor integration in 2-year-olds.

Rozvíjení jemné motoriky dětí pomocí vybraných technik práce s textilními materiály / Development of fine motor skills of children with selected techniques work with textile materialsJedličková, Milena January 2011 (has links)
Soft motoric skill of a pre-school child and its development is an important part of an educational process in a nursery school. The soft motoric skill is very significant for a further succes in a school and there is more or less attention devoted to this topic in educational programs as well. The aim of my thesis is to determine the effect of selected hand works to the motoric skill. I have divided this thesis into theoretical and research part. The theoretical part is aimed at traditional textile techniques and their development from history to present, specificities of pre-school children, a development of soft motoric skill, upper limbs, a skeleton and muscles. Research section contains the results of a survey of contemporary interest in traditional manual works and identifies what impact has the manual works on the soft motoric skill of an early child. I have created an experimental and control group of children of around the same age and abilities. The experimental group participated a course of hand works. In post-tests I've found that there is a significant difference between the experimental and control group. The research has confirmed the positive impact of the activities that support the soft motoric skill by using the selected techniques of work.

From Music to Medicine: Transfer of Motor Skills from Piano Performance to Laparoscopic SurgeryDimitrova, Valeria 26 July 2021 (has links)
Background: Due to the deficit of knowledge on fine motor skill far transfer from one domain of expertise to another, piano performance and surgical training serve as a relevant, interdisciplinary context in which to study the transfer of motor skills given both have relatively well-established levels of performance and require complex fine motor skills. Musicians tend to demonstrate greater ease in all aspects of procedural knowledge which are known to contribute to the early stages of motor learning. Previous research in the Piano Pedagogy Research Laboratory (PPRL) found that extensive piano training was correlated with faster learning of surgical knot-tying skills. However, the short-term two-day timeline was a limitation of the study. Objective: Our project has built on previous work in the PPRL to address the short-term nature of previous studies by measuring a long-term performance curve as well as retention of surgical training and also expanded on the previous project by focussing this time on laparoscopic tasks. This study compared performance curves of two participant groups (pianists and controls) over five consecutive days and retention one week later, as measured by speed and accuracy of task completion. Laparoscopic training consisted of six tasks repeated at every session. Since laparoscopy involves a variety of abilities concurrently, we also administered a battery of ten psychometric tests to isolate and measure specific aspects of non-motor and fine motor skills. Results: There was no statistical difference between participant groups on the majority of laparoscopic training and psychomotor assessments based on two-way mixed ANOVA and Mann-Whitney U test analysis, respectively. There were also little to no significant correlations between abilities and laparoscopic performance. The only significant confounding variable was that the control group was significantly more interested in surgery than the musician group (p = .037). Conclusion: Overall, these results demonstrate that piano performance training did not far transfer to laparoscopic surgery. This is relevant to the debate on far transfer of motor skills given this study’s robust design which addressed previous shortcomings by including a longer timeline and more specifications of musicians’ characteristics. Our findings indicate that fine motor skills are domain specific to music and surgery, respectively.
