Performance consistency in various motor assesments performed by children with Development Coordination Disorder
Abstract
Children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) have low motor skills that include marked delays in achieving motor milestones, poor balance, low coordination and handwriting difficulties.
Because of the heterogeneous nature of this condition and its comorbidity with other disorders, it is difficult to develop a single profile of motor skill deficiencies in children with DCD and it remains unclear how a particular child with DCD may perform in an array of motor assessment batteries.
