Issues in diagnosis of children with developmental coordination disorder.
- Authors
SUGDEN, DAVID
- Abstract
The article examines the diagnostic tools for developmental coordination disorder in children. Researchers and clinicians utilize the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition criteria. Criterion A of this diagnostic tool is evaluated almost exclusively by normative referenced test and the Movement Assessment Battery Test for Children (MABC). Responsiveness, which identifies small but significant motor performance changes, has not been widely investigated.
