The Effect of Amblyopia on Fine Motor Skills in Children [PDF]
In an investigation of the functional impact of amblyopia in children, the fine motor skills of amblyopes and age-matched control subjects were compared. The influence of visual factors that might predict any decrement in fine motor skills was also explored.Vision and fine motor skills were tested in a group of children (n = 82; mean age, 8.2 +/- 1.7 ...

Fine motor skills at preschool age and later academic skills: an indirect-effects analysis involving executive function in high-altitude Tibetan preschoolers [PDF]
Fine motor skills are associated with later academic development, but the role of executive function in this association remains insufficiently understood, particularly in high-altitude preschool populations.

Fine motor skills and motor control networking in developmental age. [PDF]
AbstractObjectivesWe investigated the relationships between fine motor skills, fitness, anthropometrics, gender and perceived motor performance in school beginners. The aim of our study was to delineate whether and to what extent fine motor control would show meaningful synchrony with other motor variables in the age of onset of handwriting in school ...

Preliminary Adaptation of Motor Tests to Evaluate Fine Motor Skills Associated with Mathematical Skills in Preschoolers. [PDF]
Mathematics is the subject in which many school-age children reveal difficulties. The literature has shown that fine motor skills, namely fine motor coordination and visuomotor integration, have been more robustly associated with mathematical performance.

The Role of Visual Performance in Fine Motor Skills. [PDF]
The aim of this study was to analyse the relationship between fine motor skills (FMSs) and visual performance. Thirty young participants with normal binocular vision performed five fine motor tasks: Purdue, Grooved, and O’Connor pegboards, a needle threading task, and a water pouring task, which were characterised by the time taken to complete the task,
