Participants were the students of a selected school. Place effect on participants’ motor, cognitive behaviors and academic confidence studied. The subjects were divided into two groups. Group-A was consisted of students those were in the school for more than 5 years, whereas in group-B students with less than 5 years stay in the school were there. It was assumed that duration as stay in the school representing place effect may provide some relationship link? Following instruments were used; Taping Board (Electronic) 10 trails for both groups as motor performance, Star Mirror Drawing (Electronics) 10 trails with preferred hand both groups for transfer as cognition and Academic Self-efficacy Scale for all groups for academic confidence implied in similar controlled conditions. The results provided useful significant information about the place effect; some emic proposition regarding gender also emerged. More studies recommended.

Relationship of normal emotions resembling startle and surprise with cognitive and motor learning and performance and its influence on self-feel rating were studied among 100 normal subjects those included 50 male and 50 female. Start Mirror Drawing (Electronic) for cognitive and motor learning and performance , created conditions containing stimulus values close to startle and surprise and personal feel question, quantity: 1 for self-feel rating were used.
