这项研究确定了一种协调行动结构，可在出生后数小时内整合手和嘴的活动。仰卧位的婴儿接受 7 次 12% 蔗糖溶液。与之前和之后的非蔗糖喂养时期相比，手口协调的差异是惊人的：32%的蔗糖时期是由婴儿将手放入口中或与口腔接触度过的，而在非蔗糖喂养时期，则有 18% 的婴儿采取同样的措施。此外，在吃蔗糖期间，把手放到嘴边的频率增加了 50%。这些数据为口咽部控制与嘴相关的手部运动粗大运动模式的整合提供了证据。讨论了这些发现的可能的功能意义。
This research identifies a coordinative structure of action that integrates hand and mouth activities within hours after birth. Infants in the supine position received 7 presentations of 12% sucrose solution. Differences in hand-mouth coordination relative to preceding and succeeding epochs of nonsucrose presentation were striking: 32% of the sucrose period was spent by infants with hands inside the mouth or in contact with it, and 18%, for the same measures during periods of nonsucrose delivery. In addition the hand was brought to the mouth 50% more often during the sucrose period. These data provide evidence for oropharyngeal control over integration of gross motor patterns of hand movement as they relate to the mouth. A possible functional significance of these findings is discussed.
