Impaired motor coordination is prevalent in children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and affects adaptive skills. Little is known about the development of motor patterns in young children with ASD between 2 and 6 years of age. The purpose of the current study was threefold: (1) to describe developmental correlates of motor coordination in children with ASD, (2) to identify the extent to wh...

OBJECTIVES Infants and toddlers with deformational plagiocephaly (DP) have been shown to score lower on developmental measures than unaffected children. To determine whether these differences persist, we examined development in 36-month-old children with and without a history of DP. METHODS Participants included 224 children with DP and 231 children without diagnosed DP, all of who had been f...

The aim of this study was to gain insights into the relationship between developmental coordination disorder, peer problems, and behavioral problems in school-aged children where both internalizing and externalizing behavioral problems were considered. We assumed that the relationship between developmental coordination disorder and internalizing/externalizing problems in school-aged children is...

AbstractAim Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder usually diagnosed at primary-school-age. This systematic review aimed to summarize available standardized motor assessments before five years of age predicting DCD, complex Minor Neurological (cMND) and delay assessed by test. Methods A search was performed in MEDLINE, CINAHL...

The realtime manipulation of audio with desktop computers has become both possible and popular over the last several years. Perhaps the most important aspect that determines the suitability of a computer operating system for this application is the latency of its audio system. This paper describes the results of an experiment measuring the audio latency of several current desktop operating syst...

This study compared performance on the Functional Independence Measure for Children (WeeFIM), the Battelle Developmental Inventory Screening Test (BDIST), and the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales (VABS) in children with developmental disabilities. The three instruments were administered to 205 children with identified disabilities. All 205 children were tested using the WeeFIM instrument. The ...

Background: Toddlers with celiac disease are at risk of developmental delay due to frequent hospitalization and food deprivation. But an appropriate program to improve development of these children does not exist. Aim: Determination of the effect of a developmental stimulation program on development of toddlers’ fine motor skills. Methods: This clinical trial conducted on 50 eligible 1-3 year-o...
