Fine motor skill and expressive language in minimally verbal and verbal school‐aged autistic children
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Autism Research"
DOI: 10.1002/aur.2883
Abstract: Fine motor skill is associated with expressive language outcomes in infants who have an autistic sibling and in young autistic children. Fewer studies have focused on school‐aged children even though around 80% have motor impairments… read more here.

Visuospatial function predicts one-week motor skill retention in cognitively intact older adults
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Neuroscience Letters"
DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2017.11.032
Abstract: Motor learning declines with aging, such that older adults retain less motor skill after practice compared to younger adults. However, it remains unclear if these motor learning declines are related to normal cognitive changes associated… read more here.
