Are you sure you're calling this by the right name? I was thinking of the moro reflex. You might try asking VickyRN since she teaches OB or asking on the OB Forum.
Here's a link to a page on Family Practice Notebook that lists the Newborn Reflexes. Magnet Reflex is not listed there.

Please someone tell me they know what the magnet reflex is in newborns and how to assess it.
