    Re: different ranges of motion in children of different ethnicities

    dear Sara,

    I can recommend reading the following article regarding research on Dutch children.

    http://download.journals.elsevierhea...7610005998.pdf

    Most children in Holland are caucasian (80%), but our population is a colourful one. We do have a large number of North african, European, Caribbean, Indonesian, Turkish, Maroccan inhabitants as well.

    Have a look at the following site.... http://www.psych.nyu.edu/adolph/
    Karen has publised an enormous range of very interesting articles.
    This one is about the differences in cultures http://www.psych.nyu.edu/adolph/PDFs/CultureChapter.pdf enjoy!

    I do not know of any other publications with scores for different ethnicities as you have asked. Maybe you could take a peek at the WHO site and find more information there.

    Esther
