Rennê H. da Silva; Glauber C. Nobre; Maria Luiza F. Pessoa; Ívina A. A. Soares; Jorge Bezerra; Anelise R. Gaya; Jorge A. P. S. Mota; Michael J. Duncan; Clarice M. L. Martins – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2024
Purpose: To analyze associations between physical activity (PA) during school hours and fundamental movement skills (FMS) of young children with and without PE classes. Methods: This cross-sectional study examined 201 children of both sexes (102 girls, 50.7%), aged 3-5 years old (4.51 ± 0.79), who were engaged (n = 129) or not (n = 72) in physical…

Ryan D. Burns; Anke Van Roy; Bradley R. King – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2024
The purpose of this study was to examine the associations of outdoor playtime, screen time, and sleep duration with ball bouncing skills in a sample of 3- to 5-year-old children. Participants were young children (N = 11,121; 48.8% female) whose parent/guardian completed the 2022 National Survey of Children's Health. The dependent variable was one…

Sara Soltanifar; Rasool Abedanzadeh; Adele Ahmadinezhad; Seyyed Mohammadreza Mousavi – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2024
Gender stereotype threat is a sociocultural variable that has received significant attention over the past two decades. We explored whether presenting a task as a practical and challenging activity would reduce the negative impact of implicit activation of gender stereotype threat on motor learning in adolescent girls. Forty-five adolescent girls…

The first years of life are an optimal time for developing motor competence. However, the evidence regarding motor competence in early childhood is fragmented and needs to be clearly synthesized and presented. To establish effective evidence-based decision making in research, practice, and policy for the early years, this expert statement, on…

Sezen Çimen Polat; Musab Çagin; Halil Sarol – Pegem Journal of Education and Instruction, 2024
Movement training is thought to be very important in terms of learning both basic motor skills and new techniques in sports branches. Rhythmic gymnastics apparatus technique applications, which is a widely used method in movement training; it aims to display predetermined choreography in harmony with various tools. In this context, the aim of this…

Metehan Yana; Erdogan Kavlak; Musa Günes – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2024
In this study, we aimed to analyze the incremental effects of sensory integration therapy (SIT) plus neurodevelopmental therapy (NT) versus NT alone on the attention and motor skills in children with Down syndrome (DS). We randomly assigned into experimental (i.e. SIT + NT; n = 21) and control (i.e. NT alone; n = 21) groups. While NT was applied…

Mazeed, Huda M. – International Journal of Early Childhood, 2023
The current study presents a rhythmic music program to acquire some motor skills for children with Down syndrome. The research sample was taken from one of the specialized Down syndrome learning centers for children, and the sample was taken in a random manner. The sample of children consisted of 20 boys and girls and divided into experimental and…

Lerma, Nicholas; Gulgin, Heather – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2023
This study evaluated the agreement between Kinect V2 with AssessLink and Vicon motion capture systems in children performing the vertical jump (JL) and forward leap (Leap). Eighteen healthy children (5-17 years) performed the movements while recorded simultaneously by both motion capture systems. Spearman correlation ([rho]) and Bland-Altman were…

McKay, Brad; Bacelar, Mariane F. B.; Carter, Michael J. – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2023
Recent metascience suggests that motor behavior research may be underpowered, on average. Researchers can perform a priori power analyses to ensure adequately powered studies. However, there are common pitfalls that can result in underestimating the required sample size for a given design and effect size of interest. Critical evaluation of power…

Shields, Reece; Liu, Jiling – Strategies: A Journal for Physical and Sport Educators, 2023
Tackle football has the highest number of injuries in contact sports. Certain injuries in the head and neck may severely impact the player's physical, neurological, and physiological functionality, even sudden death, as well as the quality of their personal life in the long run. These injuries commonly occur during a collision when a defender is…

Denison, Jim – Quest, 2023
In this paper I explore my burgeoning interest in the work of Bruno Latour in an effort to conceptualize movement skill learning as a complex process involving multiple circulating entities. Drawing from Latour's (2007) actor-network theory (ANT), my aim is to illustrate how an ANT take on movement skill learning could impact kinesiology as a…

Anshu, Kumari; Nair, Ajay Kumar; Srinath, Shoba; Laxmi, T. Rao – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Early motor and sensory developmental delays precede Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnosis and may serve as early indicators of ASD. The literature on sensorimotor development in animal models is sparse, male centered, and has mixed findings. We characterized early development in a prenatal valproic acid (VPA) model of ASD and found…

Fears, Nicholas E.; Templin, Tylan N.; Sherrod, Gabriela M.; Bugnariu, Nicoleta L.; Patterson, Rita M.; Miller, Haylie L. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Autistic children have differences in their movements which impact their functional performance. Virtual-reality enables researchers to study movement in safe, engaging environments. We used motion-capture to measure how 7-13-year-old autistic and neurotypical children make whole-body movements in a virtual-reality task. Although children in both…

Device-based measures often rely on the positive relationship between walking cadence and metabolic equivalents of task (METs) to estimate physical activity. It is unknown whether this relationship remains during jogging/running. The study purpose was to investigate the relationships between METs, cadence, and step length during walking and…
