The Relative Efficacy of Vestibular-Proprioceptive Stimulation and the Upright Position in Enhancing Visual Pursuit in Neonates
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Gregg, Claudette L.; And Others – Child Development, 1976
Forty-eight neonates were randomly assigned to view a moving stimulus either in the horizontal or the upright position, with or without added vestibular stimulation and with or without pacifier sucking. Results indicate that vestibular proprioceptive stimulation, provided horizontally or semi-vertically, significantly enhanced visual tracking.…

Effect of Self-Produced Locomotion on Infant Postural Compensation to Optic Flow.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Higgins, Carol I.; And Others – Developmental Psychology, 1996
Compared the postural responsiveness of seven-, eight-, and nine-month-old infants. Results indicated greater use of optic flow for postural control after a self-produced locomotor experience. Infants with endogenous (creeping) or artificial (walker) self-produced locomotor experience responded to portions of the optic flow field, whereas…
