2项研究旨在验证空间搜索策略（即“物体持久性”）可能受到运动经验影响的预测。根据运动史将婴儿分为3组：前运动组、有助行器辅助的前运动组和手膝爬行组。各组婴儿均为8.5个月大。结果表明，手和膝盖以及助行器辅助运动经验促进了空间搜索的表现。婴儿移动的时间越长，他们的得分就越高。此外，手和膝盖组与前运动组/助行器组之间没有差异，这表明运动经验和空间搜索表现之间的关系不仅仅是俯卧进展成熟的函数。第三项研究发现，运动的质量影响物体持久性的表现：腹部爬行者的表现不同于有手和膝盖或步行经验的婴儿，就他们在运动前水平的表现而言，无论他们有几周的运动经验。综上所述，这些发现表明，具有更有效运动模式的婴儿更有可能从运动产生的经验中获益。
2 studies were designed to test the prediction that spatial search strategies (i.e., "object permanence") may be influenced by locomotor experience. Infants were assigned to 3 groups based on locomotor history: prelocomotor, prelocomotor with walker-assisted experience, and handle-and-knees creeping. Infants in all groups were 8.5 months of age. Results showed that hands-and-knees and walker-assisted locomotor experience facilitated spatial search performance. The longer that infants had been moving, the higher their scores. Furthermore, there were no differences between the hands-and-knees and prelocomotor/walker-assisted groups, suggesting that the relation between locomotor experience and spatial search performance was not merely a function of the maturation of prone progression. A third study found that the quality of locomotion affected object permanence performance: Belly crawlers performed differently that infants with hands-and-knees or walker experience, insofar as they performed at prelocomotor levels regardless of weeks of locomotor experience. Taken together, the pattern of findings suggests that infants with more efficient modes of locomotion are more likely to profit from the experiences generated by locomotion.
