Sažetak
Bimanual coordination is a very important skill in human motor repertoire, which includes simultaneous use of both hands in an integrated and skillful manner. It is manifested in grasping, carrying or manipulation of objects, like using the phone, typing on the keyboard or catching the ball. For coordinated movements which include the left and the right side of the body, communication between cerebral hemispheres is necessary. The major forebrain commissure, connecting cerebral hemispheres and providing such a communication, is known as corpus callosum. In motor behavioral research, a convenience sample of 62 children aged 8-10 yrs was employed. Children performed four non-laboratory tasks, which assess bimanual coordination. Statistically significant differences regarding gender and age were found and elaborated within neurodevelopmental context of callosal involvement in interhemispheric transfer.
