Developmentally Changing Attractor Dynamics of Manual Actions with Objects in Late Infancy

Figure 5

Manual actions with objects inside and outside of the attractor region. (a, b) The proportion of time inside and outside of the attractor region for the preferred (a, turquoise) and nonpreferred (b, beige) hands for three types of events: manually acting with an object with the preferred hand, manually acting with an object with the nonpreferred hand, and no manual action with an object. Lighter shades indicate proportion of time spent outside of the attractor. Error bars indicate the bootstrapped 95% confidence interval. (c, d) The difference in proportion of time inside and outside of the attractor for each event type for preferred (c, orange) and nonpreferred (d, green) hands. Error bars indicate the bootstrapped 95% confidence interval.
