Daily functioning in children with developmental coordination disorder:Assessment of activities of daily functioning
Kinderen met developmental coordination disorder (DCD) hebben moeite met de coördinatie van bewegingen. Dit levert vaak problemen op bij dagelijkse activiteiten: drinkbekers vallen om, schrijfwerk is onleesbaar en âonhandigheidâ verstoort het samenspelen met andere kinderen. Hoewel de stoornis relatief mild van aard is, kan de impact van DCD op het leven van kinderen groot zijn. Naast de motorische moeilijkheden kunnen andere problemen ontstaan, zoals verminderde fitheid en weinig zelfvertrouwen. Omdat DCD problemen veroorzaakt in het dagelijks functioneren van kinderen, is het belangrijk om hun activiteiten van het dagelijks leven (ADL) goed te bestuderen. Daarom zijn in dit promotie onderzoek twee nieuwe instrumenten ontwikkeld - een motorische test en een vragenlijst voor ouders, voor kinderen van 5 tot 9 jaar: de DCDDaily en DCDDaily-Q. Dit proefschrift laat zien dat deze instrumenten betrouwbaar en valide zijn, en dat kinderen met DCD, in vergelijking met leeftijdsgenoten, ADL minder goed kunnen uitvoeren in een standaard situatie, ADL minder goed uitvoeren in het dagelijks leven, er langer over doen om ADL te leren en dat ze minder vaak participeren in ADL.Met de ontwikkeling van de DCDDaily en DCDDaily-Q is een belangrijke stap gezet om clinici te ondersteunen bij het stellen van de diagnose en het samenstellen van passende therapie voor individuele kinderen, en om verder onderzoek naar de stoornis te faciliteren.Children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) face difficulties coordinating their movements. This frequently affects their daily activities: drinks are spilled, handwriting is illegible, and âclumsinessâ often disturbs children from playing with their peers. Although DCD is a relatively mild disorder, the impact on childrenâs daily life is evident. Next to their motor problems, children with DCD face physical and psycho-social problems such as poor physical fitness and low self-esteem.As daily functioning is affected in children with DCD, it is important to assess these childrenâs activities of daily living (ADL). Therefore, two new instruments were developed - a motor test and a parental questionnaire applicable to five to eight-year-old children: the DCDDaily and DCDDaily-Q. It is concluded in this thesis that both instruments are valid and reliable. Further, this thesis demonstrates that children with DCD, compared to typically developing peers, show limited capacity in ADL, poor performance of ADL, delays in learning of ADL, and less frequent participation in ADL. The development of the DCDDaily and DCDDaily-Q is an important step to support clinicians in the diagnostic process and to provide tailored intervention for individual children, and to facilitate further research into DCD

Assessment of Motor Activities of Daily Living:Spanish Cross-Cultural Adaptation, Reliability and Construct Validity of the DCDDaily-Q
[Abstract]
The DCDDaily-Q is an instrument that aims to comprehensively assess motor performance in a broad range of activities of daily living (ADL) and to identify risk of Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) in children. The aim of this study was to cross-culturally adapt the DCDDaily-Q into European Spanish (DCDDaily-Q-ES) and to test its psychometric properties in Spanish 5 to 10 year old children. The DCDDaily-Q was translated and cross-culturally adapted into Spanish following international guidelines. Two-hundred and seventy-six parents of typically developing Spanish children completed the final version of the DCDDaily-Q-ES (M = 7.5 years, SD = 1.7; girls = 50%). Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), internal consistency, and corrected item-total correlations were conducted to test construct validity, internal consistency, and homogeneity of the DCDDaily-Q-ES. The DCDDaily-Q-ES achieved good semantic, conceptual, and cultural equivalence. CFA supported construct validity of the DCDDaily-Q-ES. Reliability values were also good (Cronbachâs alpha = 0.703â0.843; corrected item-total correlations = 0.262â0.567). This is the first study to cross-culturally adapt and examine the DCDDaily-Q outside the Netherlands. The findings suggest that the DCDDaily-Q-ES is a reliable and valid measure to assess learning, participation, and performance in a broad range of ADL.Xunta de Galicia; ED481A-2018/15

A systematic review of instruments for assessment of capacity in activities of daily living in children with developmental co-ordination disorder
Children with developmental co-ordination disorder (DCD) face evident motor difficulties in activities of daily living (ADL). Assessment of their capacity in ADL is essential for diagnosis and intervention, in order to limit the daily consequences of the disorder. The aim of this study is to systematically review potential instruments for standardized and objective assessment of children's capacity in ADL, suited for children with DCD. As a first step, databases of MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL and PsycINFO were searched to identify studies that described instruments with potential for assessment of capacity in ADL. Second, instruments were included for review when two independent reviewers agreed that the instruments: (1) are standardized and objective; (2) assess at activity level and comprise items that reflect ADL, and; (3) are applicable to school-aged children that can move independently. Out of 1507 publications, 66 publications were selected, describing 39 instruments. Seven of these instruments were found to fulfil the criteria and were included for review: the Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Performance-2 (BOT2); the Do-Eat (Do-Eat); the Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2 (MABC2); the school-Assessment of Motor and Process Skills (schoolAMPS); the Tuffts Assessment of Motor Performance (TAMP); the Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD); and the Functional Independence Measure for Children (WeeFIM). As a third step, for the included instruments, suitability for children with DCD was discussed based on the ADL comprised, ecological validity and other psychometric properties. We concluded that current instruments do not provide comprehensive and ecologically valid assessment of capacity in ADL as required for children with DCD
Activities of daily living in children with developmental coordination disorder: Performance, learning, and participation
Background Children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) face evident motor difficulties in daily functioning. Little is known, however, about their difficulties in specific activities of daily living (ADL). Objective The purposes of this study were: (1) to investigate differences between children with DCD and their peers with typical development for ADL performance, learning, and participation, and (2) to explore the predictive values of these aspects. Design. This was a cross-sectional study. Methods In both a clinical sample of children diagnosed with DCD (n=25 [21 male, 4 female], age range=5-8 years) and a group of peers with typical development (25 matched controls), the childrenâs parents completed the DCDDaily-Q. Differences in scores between the groups were investigated using t tests for performance and participation and Pearson chi-square analysis for learning. Multiple regression analyses were performed to explore the predictive values of performance, learning, and participation. Results Compared with their peers, children with DCD showed poor performance of ADL and less frequent participation in some ADL. Children with DCD demonstrated heterogeneous patterns of performance (poor in 10%-80% of the items) and learning (delayed in 0%-100% of the items). In the DCD group, delays in learning of ADL were a predictor for poor performance of ADL, and poor performance of ADL was a predictor for less frequent participation in ADL compared with the control group. Limitations A limited number of children with DCD were addressed in this study. Conclusions This study highlights the impact of DCD on childrenâs daily lives and the need for tailored intervention
