 note = {Three-Point-grading ability of alternate hand tapping was examined as to speed and strength instructions for four, five, and six year old children. Subjects were asked to tap a box on the knee with fast-moderate-slow and hard-moderate-soft instructions. Arm movement and tapping pressure were measured with tapping tempo. To test general three-Point-grading ability, other skillful movements (hand gripping, teacher's name calling, and bean scooping tasks) were also given to the subjects. The results indicated that the children have an ability to express the grading in the familiar tasks. For the tapping tasks it was found that the children understood the strength and speed instructions separately. However, some confusion of "fast" and "hard" on expressing the instructions was observed, because they showed a larger arm movement when asked to tap fast, though adults of the previous study showed a smaller arm movement. It is speculated that children do not have a mature grading strategy and there would be at least three developmental stages in tapping control strategy., 弘前大学教育学部紀要. 111, 2014, p.63-72},
