Age-related changes in tactile spatial resolution from 6 to 16 years old / Yannick Bleyenheuft in Somatosensory and Motor Research [périodique éléctronique], Vol. 23, N°3/4 (Décembre 2006)  

Public ISBD [article]  inSomatosensory and Motor Research [périodique éléctronique] > Vol. 23, N°3/4 (Décembre 2006) . - p. 83-87 Titre : Age-related changes in tactile spatial resolution from 6 to 16 years old Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : Yannick Bleyenheuft ; Caroline Cols ; Carlyne Arnould ; Jean-Louis Thonnard Année de publication : 2006 Article en page(s) : p. 83-87 Note générale : doi.org/10.1080/08990220600816440 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Tactile sensitivity  children  spatial resolution  skin properties  cortical maturation  normative data Résumé : The aim of this study was to determine age-related changes in tactile spatial resolution from 6 to 16 years old. Two hundred and twenty-two healthy children (105 boys and 117 girls) were assessed. The tactile spatial resolution threshold was determined using a classic set of JVP domes with a procedure adapted for children. Preadolescence appears to be an important step in tactile spatial resolution since children aged between 6 and 9 years old had a worse tactile spatial resolution than older children. Both peripheral and central explanations for this improvement of tactile spatial resolution with age are considered. The authors suggest that cortical maturational processes are likely to explain the better results of older children.
