Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Real execution of Fitts's law tasks

Children will be training Fitts's law tasks of different difficulties. Once each task will be solved, they will receive a new, more demanding task

BEHAVIORAL

Motor imagery of Fitts's law tasks

Children will be training Fitts's law tasks of different difficulties, same as RE group but the exception of doing it mentally - motor imagery of Fitts's law tasks with eyes open.

BEHAVIORAL

Skip counting

Children in SCg will silently count (one number per second) in the same working blocks as both experimental groups with a task of saying the number they reached during each block - control condition to keep them mentally active at very low mental engagement.
