Motor competence denotes an individual’s degree of proficient performance in a broad range of motor skills as well as the underlying mechanisms including quality of movement, motor coordination and motor control (Burton & Miller, 1998; Gabbard, 2008).

In early childhood, factors that contribute to motor‐skill engagement (MSE) are unknown. Our aim was to explore the relationships between actual and perceived motor competence and their influences on MSE on a balance bike (bike with no pedals). A secondary aim was to investigate whether MSE had an effect on ability on a balance bike.

Motor competence as integral to attribution of goal
Cognition, 1997In a recent article, Gergely et al. (1995) presented some interesting data encumbered, however, by an interpretation we think the data do not support. There is, nevertheless, an interpretation they do support—one which, in our view, gives the data their interest.

Inhibitory control of competing motor memories
Experimental Brain Research, 1999The ability to inhibit previously learned visuomotor associations is essential for efficient learning of novel behaviors. While the neural basis of the system that might control interactions between competing motor memories is not known, it has been demonstrated that animals with ventral and orbital prefrontal cortex (PFC) deficits have particular ...

Assessment of human movement has a long history with many different terms used to describe movement performance and its development across time. This chapter introduces terminology applied in motor competence assessment literature to provide researchers and practitioners with important contextual information on the purpose of assessment.

Motor Competence and Physical Fitness in Adolescents
Pediatric Physical Therapy, 2014In this study we examined the relationship between physical fitness and motor competence in adolescents aged 15 to 16 years.A sample of 94 adolescents participated in the study. To test motor competence, the Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2 was used. Physical fitness was assessed using the following test items: standing broad jump, 20-m dash,

Motor competence has been shown to predict health-related physical fitness (HRPF) components in youth, but there is indeterminate evidence for the reverse path. Even less is known about the specific relationship between motor competence and flexibility.

Impaired Motor Competence in Children With Transplanted Liver
Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, 2015AbstractObjectives:Although reduced cognitive function has been demonstrated after liver transplantation in children, few data are available concerning motor competence.Methods:Thirty‐five children ages 4 to 12 years were tested using Movement Assessment Battery for Children (M‐ABC) test at a median of 5.1 (3.9–6.9) years after liver transplantation ...

Motor Competence and Difficulty of Self-Set Goals on Motor Learning
Journal of Motor BehaviorMotor competence is associated with the perceived difficulty of a task. This study hypothesized that children with higher motor competence perceive certain tasks as less challenging than their peers with lower motor competence. As a result, children with higher motor competence were expected to set more ambitious goals for themselves while learning a ...

Competing sensory neurons and motor rhythm coordination
Neurocomputing, 2004Abstract The marine mollusk Clione limacina has a peculiar hunting behavior characterized by a complex sequence of loops and turns. We have developed a model of the receptor network of Clione 's gravimetric organ to explain this behavior. In this paper we discuss the possible role of an activation phase lock among the statocyst receptor neurons to
