Learning to Reach: A Mathematical Model.
Berthier, Neil E.
Developmental Psychology, v32 n5 p811-23 Sep 1996
Presents a mathematical model of the development of reaching behavior in infants, along with the results of two experiments that showed that infant movements could be decomposed into the underlying submovements using a principled method; and the angular error in infant reaches matches the form and magnitude of error assumed by the model.
