Abstract:Using a longitudinal design, the present study examined developmental changes in
the employment of (motor) imagery strategies on the hand laterality judgment
(HLJ) task in children. All children (N = 23) participated
three times, at ages of 5, 6, and 7 years. Error percentages and response
durations were compared to a priori defined sinusoid models, representing
different strategies to judge hand laterality. Response durations of correct and
incorrect trials were included. Observed data showed that task perfor… Show more
