    1.Description of the methodology used to generate the dataset. Qualitative variables were described by absolute (n) and relative (%) frequencies; mean and standard deviation (SD) for quantitative variables. For the study of the evolution of children’s psychomotor skills according to gender, a two-factor ANOVA test with repeated measures in one of them was carried out using the General Linear Model (GLM) procedure. The dimensions of performance were studied using the Wilcoxon test. The logistic regression model was used to determine the effect of the improvement in the dimensions of psychomotor skills on the improvement in each of the performance dimensions: SA, LG, and KE. 2. Software or tools needed to interpret the data. [Include the version of the software. If specific software with restricted access is required, explain how to obtain it. Assess whether it is possible to change the dataset to an open format (recommended)]. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS 25.0 for Windows. 3. Procedures followed for data quality assurance. The differences considered statistically significant are those whose p < 0.05.

    Influence of the psychomotor profile in the improvement of learning in early childhood education

    The development of psychomotor skills in childhood enables children to organise the outside world through their bodies, contributing to their intellectual, affective, and social development. The present study aimed to longitudinally evaluate the psychomotor profile, throughout three academic years, of 3, 4 and 5-year-olds belonging to the second cycle of infant school, relating it descriptively to academic performance. The sample consisted of 82 subjects aged between 3 and 6 years throughout the study. The distribution of the sample was homogeneous, with 47.6% boys (n = 39) and 52.4% girls (n = 43). The results not only highlight the importance of the development and stimulation of motor skills from an early age for the overall development of the child, butalso, when related to previous studies, show how they influence the development of human beings in adulthood.
