Executive function and attention in young adults with and without developmental coordination disorder--a comparative study.
The current research aimed at examining the executive function (EF) of young adults with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) in comparison to young adults without DCD. The study used a randomized cohort (N=429) of young adults with DCD (n=135), borderline DCD (n=149) and control (n=145), from a previous study. This initial cohort was asked to participate in the current study three to four...
متن کاملDevelopmental Coordination Disorder/ Dyspraxia Cortical functioning in children with developmental coordination disorder: a motor overflow study
Sensory processing and higher integrative functions impairments are highly prevalent in children with ASD. Context should be considered in analyzing the sensory profile and higher integrative functions. The main objective of this study is to compare sensory processing, social participation and praxis in a group of 79 children (65 males and 14 females) from 5 to 8 years of age (M = 6.0...
متن کاملDriving skills of young adults with developmental coordination disorder: regulating speed and coping with distraction.
In two experiments, we used an automatic car simulator to examine the steering control, speed regulation and response to hazards of young adults with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) and limited driving experience. In Experiment 1 participants either used the accelerator pedal to regulate their speed, or used the brake pedal when they needed to slow down from a pre-set speed. In Experi...
متن کاملThe functional profile of young adults with suspected Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD).
We assessed the non-academic and academic functioning of young adults with DCD, and investigated the emotional influences and the role of strategy use within this population. A random sample of 2379 adolescents and young adults aged 19-25 (1081 males [45.4%]; mean age=20.68, SD=3.42) was used to develop the instruments. From this sample, three study groups were identified (n=429) based on the A...
متن کاملInterhemispheric Cortical Inhibition Is Reduced in Young Adults With Developmental Coordination Disorder
Introduction While the etiology of developmental coordination disorder (DCD) is yet to be established, brain-behavior modeling provides a cogent argument that neuropathology may subserve the motor difficulties typical of DCD. We argue that a number of the core behavioral features of the DCD profile (such as poor surround inhibition, compromised motor inhibition, and the presence of mirror movem...
