| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Using the grip strength meter for infants and children, the grasping power of infants (0 to 2 years old) was able to draw their grasp development curve verified to increase grasping ability as aging and growth of their weight and height. This is just like the previous study of 3 years and older grasping ability. As for the developmental relationship between physical and grip strength, those who has slower physical development showed lower scores of the grip strength compared with normal or early developmental subjects. As for the relationship between birth weight and the grip strength, low birth weight children have the lowest score of grip strength. Furthermore, the 12 day study of infant primitive grip reflection showed 30% higher strength in three conditions: in the afternoon, after milk/breastfeeding and when the infant were in good mood.
