Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 27-4 (August 1985) . - p.491-497 Titre : Motor overflow and attentional processes in normal school-age children Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Deborah P. WABER, Auteur ; Madeline B. MANN, Auteur ; James MEROLA, Auteur Année de publication : 1985 Article en page(s) : p.491-497 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Two groups of 28 school-age children (divided equally by sex) who were equivalent in terms of chronological age and IQ but differed in the prevalence of motor overflow were given a concept identification task designed to measure relative attentiveness to central, task-related cues and incidental, social environmental ones. Children with a high level of overflow were relatively more responsive to social cues than to task-related ones, while children with a low level were more equally responsive to the two types of cues. The results are interpreted in terms of a relationship between motor overflow and attentional processes.
