Skill learning was studied in 247 elementary and high school students, using a pursuit rotor. Data were analyzed by repeated-measures ANOVA. (ST)

This study was designed to determine the extent to which (speech) motor timing control, as defined by a statistical model, improves in consistency with age and the degree to which peripheral feedback is used by children to maintain this consistency. Clinical applications and possible genetic implications are discussed. (Author/ED)

Investigated whether there exists a stage of development at which "imagery-inducing motor activity" ceases to be facilitative relative to the effectiveness of alternative kinds of associative-learning strategies. (Author/SDH)

Factor structures of various eye-hand coordination tasks were examined for children, ages 4-1/2 to 8-1/2. Theoretical models of skilled action development are discussed. (ST)

The relationship between reflection-impulsivity as assessed by Kagan's Matching Familiar Figures test, and ratings of four personality variables (impulsivity, academic achievement motivation, test anxiety, and extra-version was examined in 68 fifth-grade children. (BRT)

An experiment demonstrating that children in Piaget's preoperational stage, who generally still cannot give conceptually correct answers to questions about rate and time, evidence an ability to imitate a given rate-time relationship demonstrated by the experimenter. (ST)
