Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We examined relationships between motor and cognitive information processing for children by inducing different motor lateral preference affected cognitive information processing. Two types of study were conducted in the studies. In the one study, we revealed genetic and environmental influences on the relationships between motor and cognitive information processing. Results indicated that the genetic factor actually and complicatedly affect the differences in motor lateral preference. In the other study, we demonstrated whether differences between left and right hand activities for children affected the cognitive information processing. The differences between left and right hand were categorized: one was short term different activity induced by a globe with only one hand. The other was long term different activity which indicated skill differences. Results showed that no short term activity but only long term different activity had effects on cognitive information processing.
