Hand selection in a preferential reaching task: The effects of object location, orientation, and task intention in preadolescent children

Abstract: Introduction and MethodsHand selection was assessed in preadolescent children (ages 9–11) within a preferential reaching task to delineate the effects of object location, orientation, and task intention on the assessment procedure and compared to data previously acquired from young adults.ResultsThe observed differences support the notion that children are still in a process of refining their movements in attempt to discern the most efficient and effective patterns of behavior. Notwithstanding differences in p… Show more

“…As such, for older adults, hand selection is progressively influenced by whether or not the movement is skilled or unskilled (Mamolo et al, 2004). A decline in hand function and performance has also been shown with increasing age, which may be due to decreases in strength, dexterity, fine motor control, and sensory efficiency (Kalisch et al, 2006;Scharoun Benson et al, 2018). Interestingly, Kalisch et al (2006) reported adults within an older age group (80 years) were unaware of the increased use of the non-preferred hand in daily life as they all self-reported a strong right hand preference for a wide variety of motor tasks.…”

“…Despite being related concepts, hand preference and performance are not always in harmony (Steenhuis & Bryden, 1999); therefore, a combination of assessment methods is the most reliable method to determine handedness (Provins & Magliaro, 1993; Scharoun Benson et al, 2018; Steenhuis & Bryden, 1999). For this reason, many studies have used performance‐based measures of preference, such as midline crossing tasks (e.g., M.P.…”
