Abstract

Reaching is a critical milestone during early infancy, as it allows for the infant to interact with their environment. Upper extremity movement and infant development has been studied utilizing both kinematics and clinical tools, but little is known about the relationship between these measurements. The purpose of this study was to describe the relationship between spatiotemporal kinematics of the upper extremity, physical infant growth, and motor development as measured using a common clinical outcome assessment.
