Infants were provided weekly tactile stimulation on eight body locations from 4 to 8 months of age ( N = 11), comparing their ability to reach to the body to infants in a control group who did not receive stimulation ( N = 10). Infants who received stimulation were more likely to successfully reach targets on the body than controls by 7 months of age. These findings indicate that tactile stimulation facilitates the development of reaching to the body by allowing infants to explore the sensorimotor correlations emerging from the stimulation.Lire moins >
