van den Berg, Linda; Libertus, Klaus; Nyström, Pär; Gottwald, Janna. M.; Licht, Victoria; Gredebäck, Gustaf – Child Development, 2022
Several studies have previously investigated the effects of sticky mittens training on reaching and grasping development. However, recent critique casted doubts on the robustness of the motor effect of this training. The current study presents a pre-registered report that aimed to generalize these effects to Swedish infants. Three-month-old…

Dean Barker; Hakan Larsson; Gunn Nyberg – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2024
Purpose: To (a) present a theoretical framework that describes how learners' movement habits become relevant in the development of movement capability and (b) present data that illustrate how this process occurs in practice. Method: An investigation with preservice physical education teachers was conducted in two phases. The first phase involved…

Lelinge, Balli – International Journal for Lesson and Learning Studies, 2023
Purpose: This study determines which aspects of the intended object of learning (planned by teachers during the first phase of a learning study) is made discernible from a learners' perspective. In a learning study, the intended, enacted, and lived object of learning are considered. This study focuses on the learning material used by teachers…

H. Bergentoft; C. Annerstedt; D. Barker; M. Holmqvist – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2024
Background: Physical education (PE) teachers in practically all countries are expected to help their students develop movement capability. To achieve this objective, teachers need certain knowledge and competencies. The question of how PE teachers should develop their capacities to achieve this task has received only limited research attention.…

Larsson, Håkan; Nyberg, Gunn; Barker, Dean – Gender and Education, 2021
Research on motor learning frequently reports gender differences. However, there seems to be limited tools in the research with which to make use of these insights in educationally relevant ways. Movement learning and gender are intensely researched in movement education research, but the issues rarely intersect in the literature. The purpose of…

Dejan Stevanovic; Salmir Nasic; Ana Doric; Elisabet Wentz; Rajna Knez – Journal of Attention Disorders, 2023
Objective: The QbTest that combines a continuous performance task (CPT) with a motion-tracking system may help identify attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This study examined the structure and diagnostic ability of the QbTest in children and adolescents. Method: Retrospective data from 1,274 children and adolescents were analyzed.…

Van Rossum, Tom; Foweather, Lawrence; Hayes, Spencer; Richardson, David; Morley, David – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2021
The aim of this study was to establish the content of a teacher-oriented movement assessment tool (MAT) for children aged 4-7 years. A three-round Delphi poll with an international panel of forty-six academics and practitioners was conducted. Consensus was reached on a selection and number of fundamental movement skills to be assessed with four…

Bores-García, Daniel; Hortigüela-Alcalá, David; Fernandez-Rio, Francisco Javier; González-Calvo, Gustavo; Barba-Martín, Raúl – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2021
Purpose: A systematic review of the research conducted on Cooperative Learning in Physical Education in the last 5 years (2014-2019). Method: Seven databases were used to select those articles that included information on the implementation of Cooperative Learning in the different educational stages. After the exclusion criteria, 15 articles were…

Lundvall, Suzanne; Gerdin, Göran – Curriculum Studies in Health and Physical Education, 2021
Physical literacy (PL) has gained considerable attention and traction in the field of health and physical education (HPE) for some time now and can thus be seen as part of the HPE discourse. However, just as advocacy for PL has grown exponentially over the last decade(s), so have the critical voices raised over the universal adoption of this…

Janemalm, L.; Barker, D.; Quennerstedt, M. – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2020
Background: How teachers enact policy has been of significant interest to educational scholars. In physical education research, scholars have identified several factors affecting the enactment of policy. These factors include but are not limited to: structural support available for teachers, provision of professional development opportunities, the…

Nyberg, Gunn; Backman, Erik; Larsson, Håkan – European Physical Education Review, 2020
Scholars argue that movement content knowledge in physical education teacher education (PETE) needs to be revisited and problematised. In this paper we develop the concept of movement capability representing a widened view of movement content knowledge. If teacher educators want to teach movement capability as an intrinsic educational goal in PETE…

Nyberg, Gunn; Barker, Dean; Larsson, Håkan – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2020
Background: Research on physical education (PE) shows a prevalence of narrow and reductionist views on what counts as ability. These views tend to privilege certain students and marginalize others, and often equate ability with technique-based sport performance. A lot of research is still directed towards the above problem. However, very few have…

Gunn Nyberg; Erik Backman; Richard Tinning – Sport, Education and Society, 2024
In this paper, we consider the challenges for Physical Education Teacher Education (PETE) that were presented during the COVID-19 pandemic in regard to preservice teachers' knowledge in and about movement and their developing movement capability. Historically, learning about movement as well as learning in movement has always been central for…

Achermann, Sheila; Nyström, Pär; Bölte, Sven; Falck-Ytter, Terje – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Atypical motor development has frequently been reported in infants at elevated likelihood for autism spectrum disorder. However, no previous study has used detailed motion capture technology to compare infant siblings of children with autism spectrum disorder and infant siblings with no familial history of autism spectrum disorder. We investigated…

Gottwald, Janna M.; De Bortoli Vizioli, Aurora; Lindskog, Marcus; Nyström, Pär; L. Ekberg, Therese; von Hofsten, Claes; Gredebäck, Gustaf – Developmental Psychology, 2017
Prospective motor control, a key element of action planning, is the ability to adjust one's actions with respect to task demands and action goals in an anticipatory manner. The current study investigates whether 14-month-olds can prospectively control their reaching actions based on the difficulty of the subsequent action. We used a reach-to-place…
