Children and chrono-exercise: Timing of physical activity on school and weekend days depends on sex and obesity status

Author(s): Reid RER; Henderson M; Barnett TA; Kakinami L; Tremblay A; Mathieu ME;

Recommendations for physical activity (PA) typically focus on frequency, intensity, duration, and type, but timing (chrono-exercise) is also important. The objective of this study is to describe when children are active on school and weekend days and explore PA timing across sex and body mass index (BMI) categories. 359 children (53% male), aged 9.6 (0.9) ...

Maturation of temporal saccade prediction from childhood to adulthood: predictive saccades, reduced pupil size and blink synchronization

Author(s): Calancie OG; Brien DC; Huang J; Coe BC; Booij L; Khalid-Khan S; Munoz DP;

When presented with a periodic stimulus, humans spontaneously adjust their movements from reacting to predicting the timing of its arrival, but little is known about how this sensorimotor adaptation changes across development. To investigate this, we analyzed saccade behavior in 114 healthy humans (ages 6-24 years) performing the visual metronome task, wh ...

The Impact of Instrument-Specific Musical Training on Rhythm Perception and Production

Author(s): Matthews TE; Thibodeau JN; Gunther BP; Penhune VB;

Studies comparing musicians and non-musicians have shown that musical training can improve rhythmic perception and production. These findings tell us that training can result in rhythm processing advantages, but they do not tell us whether practicing a particular instrument could lead to specific effects on rhythm perception or production. The current stu ...
