TY - JOUR PY - 2010// TI - WEIRD walking: Cross-cultural research on motor development JO - Behavioral and brain sciences A1 - Karasik, Lana B. A1 - Adolph, Karen E. A1 - Tamis-Lemonda, Catherine S. A1 - Bornstein, Marc H. SP - 95 EP - 96 VL - 33 IS - 2-3 N2 - Motor development - traditionally studied in WEIRD populations - falls victim to assumptions of universality similar to other domains described by Henrich et al. However, cross-cultural research illustrates the extraordinary diversity that is normal in motor skill acquisition. Indeed, motor development provides an important domain for evaluating cultural challenges to a general behavioral science.
