Abstract

The importance of psychomotor stimulation in early childhood is analyzed fi'om a contextual perspective. Theoretical approaches of psychomotor development are employed (evolutive approach, Thelen's system) highlighting áreas such as postural control, body scheme, laterality and perceptive-motor learning. The benefits of Early Psychomotor Stimulation as ivell as the importance of parental practices of stimulation are studied by means of an empiric study - designed as pre-test, post-test- that demonstrates the effectiveness of the Multisensorial Estitsologic Method, applied duringfour months to children ofo to 6 years oíd who Uve in standardized contexts. The results ofstatistical analyses (t of Student, ANCOVA, measures of association) suggest the existence of significant differences in the levéis of Somatic Motility, Sensomotor Development, Reaction and Coordination, in children from the experimental group compared to the levéis reached by the control group, whose rate of psychomotor development is lower.
