This primer describes research on the development of motor behavior. We focus on infancy when basic action systems are acquired-posture, locomotion, manual actions, and facial actions-and we adopt a developmental systems perspective to understand the causes and consequences of developmental change. Experience facilitates improvements in motor behavior and infants accumulate immense amounts of varied everyday experience with all the basic action systems. At every point in development, perception guides behavior by providing feedback about the results of just prior movements and information about what to do next. Across development, new motor behaviors provide new inputs for perception. Thus, motor development opens up new opportunities for acquiring knowledge and acting on the world, instigating cascades of developmental changes in perceptual, cognitive, and social domains.

本基础读物介绍了关于运动行为发展的研究。我们专注于婴儿期,此时基本动作系统得以发展——姿势、运动、手部动作和面部动作——我们采用发展系统的观点来理解发展变化的原因和结果。经验促进运动行为的改善,婴儿通过积累大量不同的日常经验来获得所有基本动作系统。在发展的每一个阶段,感知通过提供关于刚刚完成的动作的结果的反馈和关于下一步该做什么的信息来指导行为。在整个发展过程中,新的运动行为为感知提供新的输入。因此,运动发展为获取知识和对世界做出反应提供了新的机会,引发了感知、认知和社会领域的一连串发展变化。本文归类于:认知生物学>认知发展心理学>运动技能和表现>发展。
