The results are as follows; 1. The brake reaction time in the A and D type for children, 3 and 4 years old, was superior to that in the C type, while no significant difference was found for the 5-year-olds. 2. The simple reaction time and brake reaction time decreased with age, especilly for 5-year-olds. 3. Sex differences in brake reaction time were recognized for children 5-year-olds. The boys group children was significantly (p < 0.005) superior to girls group at static and during pedaling conditions. From these results, it was suggested that the brake by rotation (C type) is unsuitable for 3 and 4 years old with respect to brake reaction time.}, pages = {47--55}, title = {幼児における自転車の異なるハンドブレーキタイプについて(第1報)}, volume = {6}, year = {1983} }
