新运动技能的出现，例如伸手和行走，极大地改变了婴儿在社交和认知方面与世界互动的方式。运动体验如何级联到认知和社会发展的几个例子已经被记录下来，但我们对这些观察到的行为变化是否伴随着潜在的神经变化的理解仍然存在重大的知识差距。我们提出，脑电图 (EEG) 测量（例如功率、一致性和 mu 去同步化）是量化婴儿大脑运动体验的最佳工具。在这篇小评论中，我们将总结现有的婴儿研究，这些研究分别评估了运动、认知或社会发展与连贯性、力量或 mu 去同步化之间的关系。我们将讨论如何根据现有的行为证据将看似独立的发育领域中所观察到的神经变化联系起来。我们将进一步建议在探索运动体验与认知和社会发展之间联系的研究中使用力量、连贯性和 mu 去同步化。
The emergence of new motor skills, such as reaching and walking, dramatically changes how infants engage with the world socially and cognitively. Several examples of how motor experience can cascade into cognitive and social development have been documented, yet a significant knowledge gap remains in our understanding of whether these observed behavioral changes are accompanied by underlying neural changes. We propose that electroencephalography (EEG) measures such as power, coherence, and mu desynchronization are optimal tools to quantify motor experience in the infant brain. In this mini-review, we will summarize existing infant research that has separately assessed the relation between motor, cognitive, or social development with coherence, power, or mu desynchronization. We will discuss how the reviewed neural changes seen in seemingly separate developmental domains may be linked based on existing behavioral evidence. We will further propose that power, coherence, and mu desynchronization be used in research exploring the links between motor experience and cognitive and social development.
