Magnification's Effect on Endodontic Fine Motor Skills

Journal of Endodontics, 2010
The purpose of this study was to quantitatively investigate the effect of magnification on fine motor skills used in endodontics.This study used a novel manual dexterity test that was performed with and without magnification. An 8x operating microscope and 2.5x dental loupes were used for the magnification tests.

Testing of fine motor skills in dental students

European Journal of Dental Education, 2000
Manual skills form only a part of the capabilities required of future dentists, but they are a very important component, which should be tested. With regard to the dental specialities, the present study tested speciality‐independent fine motor skills. No objective, practical solution has been found up to now. 88 dental students and, as a control group,

Fine Motor Skills and Academic Achievement

2021
Fine motor skills are key in preschool education. These skills refer to those that require the movement of little muscles in hands, such as picking up pieces with tweezers or handwriting. Recent evidence has shown that those children with an appropriate fine motor skills development in the early childhood are expected to obtain a better academic ...

Developing fine motor skills

Practical Pre-School, 1999
Providing appropriate opportunities for children to develop their manual dexterity, or fine motor skills, is an important aspect of the planning of your physical development programme. Children need to develop their manual dexterity in order to cope with their personal needs, such as dressing and keeping themselves clean.

The value of fine motor skills

Practical Pre-School, 2001
It is important that everyone working within the Foundation Stage is aware of the importance of all six areas of learning - including Physical Development. It is quite easy to provide resources which may promote the development of physical skills without specifically planning for the way in which they may be used.

Fine motor skills in the classroom

1993
Although the wide ranging demands of the school require social, academic and practical skills for successful student life, educational attainment is primarily determined by the ability to demonstrate verbally and/or through inscription the comprehension and assimilation of knowledge.

Promoting fine motor skills

Practical Pre-School, 2001
It is important that the whole learning environment promotes the development of fine motor skills. If you provide a stimulating, well-organised learning environment not only will it encourage autonomous, independent learners, but children will also be using their motor skills in meaningful ways.

Fine and gross motor skills: The effects on skill-focused dual-tasks

Human Movement Science, 2015
Dual-task methodology often directs participants' attention towards a gross motor skill involved in the execution of a skill, but researchers have not investigated the comparative effects of attention on fine motor skill tasks. Furthermore, there is limited information about participants' subjective perception of workload with respect to task ...

The effect of fine and grapho-motor skill demands on preschoolers’ decoding skill

Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2016
Previous correlational research has found indications that fine motor skills (FMS) link to early reading development, but the work has not demonstrated causality. We manipulated 51 preschoolers' FMS while children learned to decode letters and nonsense words in a within-participants, randomized, and counterbalanced single-factor design with pre- and ...

Characterization of Fine Motor and Visual Motor Skills in Aicardi-Goutières Syndrome

Journal of Child Neurology
Aicardi-Goutières syndrome is a genetic inflammatory disorder resulting in dispersed neurologic dysfunction. Despite a recognition of overall motor impairment, fine and visual motor skills are undercharacterized. We hypothesize that there is a spectrum of fine and visual motor skills in the Aicardi-Goutières syndrome population as captured by a ...
