Children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) experience difficulties in motor coordination. During the last decade there has been increasing interest in the psychosocial aspects of children with motor coordination difficulties. To date, the majority of studies have focused on the perceived competence and global self-worth of children with DCD. This study examined the self-concept in ...

Due to the advancement of modern technology and impact Industry 4.0 using ICTs, IOT, smart systems products many others are now a significant essential component daily lives people with disabilities. Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) is highly comorbid frequently underestimated by health professionals, disorder that affects 5-6% worldwide children, occurring disturbances in their living...

Studies have suggested a dysfunction in oculomotor skills children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD). It has been proposed that the Developmental Eye Movement (DEM) test is useful testing dyslexics' (DD) behavior during reading, simple and indirect manner. The present study aimed at exploring DCD as assessed DEM test. We thus compared to DD both order investigate specificity of dif...

Title of Document: BRAIN FUNCTION UNDERLYING ADAPTIVE SENSORIMOTOR CONTROL IN CHILDREN WITH AND WITHOUT DEVELOPMENTAL COORDINATION DISORDER Melissa M. Pangelinan, Ph.D., 2012 Directed By: Professor Jane E. Clark, Department of Kinesiology One child in every classroom (6% of children) suffers from Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD). Children with DCD exhibit ...

We examined whether lifestyle differences between Canadian and Greek children may be reflected in Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) prevalence rates. Data revealed that the relatively inactive Greek children demonstrated higher DCD prevalence rates compared to the Canadian sample and exhibited a greater risk for clinical obesity and low cardiorespiratory fitness.

Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) is a disorder of motor coordination which interferes with academic achievement. Difficulties in mathematics have been reported. Performance in the number line task is very sensitive to atypical development of numerical cognition. We used a position-to-number task in which twenty 7-to-10years old children with DCD and 20 age-matched typically developing ...

The nature of intra- and interlimb (bimanual) coordination was examined in ten boys with (M = 10.5 years, SD = 1.0) and without DCD (M = 10.8 years, SD = .9) in a two-handed catching task. Children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) caught significantly fewer balls (MDCD = 56%, SD = 17.6 vs. MnoDCD = 93%, SD = 7.5), and both groups solved the "degrees of freedom problem" differently...

Objective Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity (ADHD) persist into adulthood; however, little research exists to describe how adults with DCD and/or ADHD cope their symptoms. Therefore, the purpose of this study was investigate coping mechanisms reported by DCD, ADHD, or both conditions. We expected there would be strategies specific each condition a bro...

Children (10 or 11 years old) with and without developmental coordination disorder (DCD) were exposed to imposed optic flow in a moving room. We manipulated the amplitude and frequency of oscillatory room motion, and we evaluated the coupling of standing body sway with room oscillations. The results revealed that standing sway of both children with and without DCD was influenced by room motion....
