Infant motor development is associated with adult cognitive categorization in a longitudinal birth cohort study
Article Abstract:
The study hypothesized that the age of achieving developmental milestones would be associated with adult executive test performance but not in tests relying on other domains of cognitive function. The results revealed a significant linear relationship between age of learning to stand and adult categorization, the earlier the attainment of the milestone, the better was the categorization and no relationships were observed between infant neurodevelopment and adult cognition in other domains.
