Summary

This study investigates the effects of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on postural control of children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD). All participants will receive four conditions of stimulation, in a crossover protocol: cerebellar anodic, cerebellar cathodic, primary motor cortex anodic (M1) or sham tDCS.

Conditions

  • Developmental Coordination Disorder

Interventions

DEVICE
