Recent experiences and observations gathered in the context of six independent studies in California, France, and Israel with a new method of tetra-ataxiametry based on the use of four footplates, are presented. Two independent postural parameters assessed by this method (fluctuations and anterio-posterior weight displacement) have been shown to be reliable over time and to correlate with scholastic progress at the lower elementary grades (ages 5 to 9 yr.). They also seem to be sensitive to minimal neurological dysfunction and to postural characteristics of deaf children. Results of one study indicate that diagonal balancing movements (between heel and contra-lateral toe) reflected by the tetra-ataxiametric measure of synchrony may play an important role in postural organization. Findings offer new perspectives on problems of postural laterality and on the relationship between static balance, cognition, and scholastic aptitudes at the lower grades of elementary education.
本文介绍了在加利福尼亚、法国和以色列开展的六项独立研究中，运用基于四块踏板的新型四轴测法所收集到的近期经验和观察结果。通过该方法评估的两个独立姿势参数（波动和前后重量位移）已被证明随时间推移具有可靠性，并且与小学低年级（5至9岁）的学业进步相关。它们似乎也对轻微神经功能障碍和聋童的姿势特征敏感。一项研究结果表明，四轴测法同步测量所反映的对角平衡运动（足跟与对侧脚趾之间）可能在姿势组织中起重要作用。这些发现为小学低年级阶段的姿势偏侧性问题以及静态平衡、认知和学业能力之间的关系提供了新的视角。
