Funded Activity Summary

Effect of infant hand observation training on the early development of hand reaching and grasping in healthy infants and those with early brain damage. The best way to learn a new motor skill is to look at people who can already do it. But is this also true for infants? And, can we help infants with motor problems by teaching them how to do it? This project aims to answer these questions by studying training based on the observation of parent's actions by infants with and without brain damage.
