- Abstract
The motor development process occurs according to the pattern established by biological factors and by environmental/social factors influence. Family socioeconomic status can be an important intervening factor in the possibilities of acquiring the fundamental motor skills necessary for the general development of the child, with serious future implications. This work aimed to analyze the possible relationships between socioeconomic status on gross motor skills in school age individuals. Methodologically, we used a systematic review with the following keywords (children, fundamental motor skills, motor skills, motor ability, motor competence, motor skill proficiency, socioeconomic status, low economic income) to identify data, resulting in 19 articles that composed this review. The inclusion criteria were: a) schoolchildren aged between 6 and 15 years; b) gross motor skills performance evaluation; c) two or more sample groups classified as socioeconomic status and d) healthy children. The main results showed a prevalence of high socioeconomic status children with higher scores in motor skills compared to low socioeconomic status children, but this result was not homogeneous.
