Summary

Experimental study based on the effectiveness of motor imagery and task-oriented training over the motor competence in children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD).

A bilateral hypothesis is assumed for the clinical trial:

* Null hypothesis: physiotherapeutic intervention programs through motor imagery combined with task-oriented training DO NOT modify the parameters of motor competence, anxiety and participation in children susceptible to observation of DCD.
* Alternative hypothesis: physiotherapeutic intervention programs through motor imagery combined with task-oriented training MODIFY the parameters of motor competence, anxiety and participation in children susceptible to observation of DCD.

Conditions

  • Developmental Coordination Disorder

Interventions

OTHER

MOTOR IMAGERY AND TASK-ORIENTED TRAINING

The intervention will be divided into two modules. A first module will include activities of activation and relaxation of the body, prediction and sequencing of movement and motor imagery. The second module, task-oriented training, will be divided into analytical work phase (visual coordination, balance, muscular strength, fine motor skills ...), a second phase of integration into specific tasks and, at end, the inclusion of the free (and supervised) practice of a sport. The investigators will apply 20 sessions of 40 minutes.
