- Abstract
This article presents a study that investigated the relationship between mobility performance and the level of physical activity in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy in Brazil. 181 children aged 4 to 11 years with different levels of motor impairment were included. Mobility performance was assessed at home, school, and in the community, while the level of physical activity was measured using the Early Physical Activity Scale for Endurance. The results showed a moderate correlation between the level of physical activity and mobility performance in different environments. It is concluded that engaging in physical activity is important for improving mobility performance in children with cerebral palsy.
