Summary

The aim of this study was to integrate a gaze training intervention (i.e., quiet eye training; QET) that has been shown to improve the throwing and catching skill of children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), within an approach (i.e., group therapy) that might alleviate the psychosocial influence of these motor skill deficits.

Conditions

  • Developmental Coordination Disorder

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Technical Training

Children will watch an instructional video focused on movement related instructions regarding the throwing and catching task.

BEHAVIORAL

Quiet Eye Training

Children will watch the same video as the TT group but will also receive instructions designed to optimise their quiet eye durations.
