SUMMARY Cutaneous reflex responses from tibialis anterior muscle following electrical stimulation were recorded for 39 normal children between the ages of one and 16 years. In the first year of life stimulation produces a monophasic excitatory reflex response at short latency; in the second year it produces long‐ as well as short‐latency increases in activity. Maturation of reflex function continues during the school years, with progressive emphasis on long‐ rather than short‐latency components. These results are discussed in relation to mechanisms underlying the acquisition of motor skills during childhood. RÉSUMÉ Maturation des réponses réflexes cutanées enregistries sur le membre inférieur de l'homme Les réponses réflexes cutanées de jambier antérieur à la suite d'une stimulation électrique ont été enregistrées chez 39 enfants normaux âgés de un à 16 ans. Au cours de la première an nee de vie, la stimulation produit une réponse réflexe excitatoire monophasique de brève latence; au cours de la seconde année, il se produit un accroissement d'activité aussi bien les latences longues que brèves. La maturation de la fonction réflexe continue durant les années scolaires avec un accroissement progressif des composantes à longue latence aux dépens des composantes à brève latence. Ces résultats sont discutés en relation avec les mécanismes soustendant l'acquisition des habiletés motrices durant l'enfance. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Reifung cutaner Reflexantworten in der unteren Extremität des Menschen Bei 39 gesunden Kindern im Alter zwischen einem und 16 Jahren wurden cutane Reflexantworten des M. tibialis anterior nach elektrischer Stimulation abgeleitet. Im ersten Lebebsjahr ergibt die Stimulation eine monophasische excitorische Reflexantwort mit kurzer Latenz; im zweiten Lebensjahr erfolgen sowohl lange wie kurze Latenzzunahmen der Aktivität. Die Reifung der Reflexfunktion setzt sich während der Schuljahre fort, mit zunehmender Betonung der langen Latenzen. Die Ergebnisse werden hinsichtlich der Mechanismen diskutiert, die dem Erlernen motorischer Fähigkeiten unterliegen. RESUMEN Maduracion de las respuestas cutáneas reflejas registradas en la extremidad inferior en niños normales Se registraron las respuestas cutáneas reflejas del músculo tibial anterior en 39 niños normales entre uno y 16 años de edad. En el primer año de edad la estimulacíon produce una respuesta refleja excitatoria monofásica de latencia corta; en el segundo año produce un aumento de la catividad con latencias corta y larga. La maduracion de la función refleja continua durante los años escolares, con un énfasis progresivo en los componentes de latencia larga, más que en la corta. Se discuten estos resultados en relación a los mecanismos subyacentes en la adquisición de habilidades motoras en la infancia.
