Abstract
We studied on the relation between primitive reflexes and motor development by means of taking movie.
Primitive reflexes (Moro reflex, Asymmetrical tonic neck reflex, Crossed extension reflex. Babinshi reflex ete) activate all kinds of automatic movement integrated by higher brainstem, and furthermore these reflexes activate development of righting reaction, parachute reaction, balance reaction and voluntarity.
Namely, primitive reflexes activate mainly automatic movement but these reflexes exert too promotive influence on the development in the early stage learning anti-gravitic posture and normal sensori-motor pattern in each motordevelopmental stage.
