这项研究调查了16个月大的行走婴儿在评估扶手作为增强平衡工具的有效性时是否将扶手的材料成分考虑在内。鼓励婴儿通过不同宽度(10、20、40厘米)的桥梁从一个站台到另一个站台，并配备可供辅助的摇摆(泡沫或乳胶)或木质扶手。婴儿试图走更宽的桥比走窄的桥更频繁，当有坚固的木质扶手时，尝试更频繁。婴儿根据轨道的材料特性量身定做他们的探索行为、过桥策略和扶手使用策略。
This study examined whether 16-month-old walking infants take the material composition of a handrail into account when assessing its effectiveness as a tool to augment balance. Infants were encouraged to cross from one platform to another via bridges of various widths (10, 20, 40 cm) with either a "wobbly" (foam or latex) or a wooden handrail available for assistance. Infants attempted to walk over wider bridges more often than narrow ones, and attempts were more frequent when the sturdy wooden handrail was available. Infants tailored their exploratory behaviors, bridge-crossing strategies, and handrail-use strategies to the material properties of the rail.
