objectives: movement is a continuous aspect of life and an important factor to achieve the goals and meet the needs. regarding the importance of infantś motor assessment and the large number of children with motor disorders, a valid and reliable test is required to help evaluation of motor development and provide appropriate interventions by therapists and educators. this study was implemented ...

the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of perceptual – motor experience on motor development quotient of fine and gross motor skills in infants. fifteen 5-8-month-old healthy infants participated randomly in this study and were divided homogenously into two groups (experimental and control) according to their age. experimental group had 36 training sessions, each session an hou...

background: to determine whether using mechanical ventilation in neonatal intensive care unit (nicu) influences motor development of low birth weight (lbw) infants and to compare their motor development with normal birth weight (nbw) infants at the age of 8 to 12 months using peabody developmental motor scale 2 (pdms-2). methods: this cross sectional study was conducted on 70 lbw infants in two...

This study examines the relationship between the Maxima Dispersion Quotient (MDQ), a recently proposed measure of the tense-lax dimension of voice quality, and voice source parameters manually measured from glottal flow data, where there is linguistically and paralinguistically determined voice source modulation. MDQ was found to correlate most closely to the open quotient (OQ) and the RD param...

Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted on 70 LBW infants in ...

Objectives: Social development in children is influenced by several factors, including family, school friends, television, gender, race, socioeconomic status, and locomotor activity, and depending on the situation and how they react to it, social development and maturity might get accelerated or get undermined. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between fine moto...

objectives: the aim of this study was to compare the fine motor development between low birth weight (lbw) infants and normal birth weight infants (nbw) at the age of 8-12 months by using the peabody developmental motor scale-2 (pdms-2) . methods: this was a non experimental and cross sectional study which was conducted on the 18 lbw infants and 14 normal infants. by referring to the profile of...
