About this Research Topic
Motor coordination plays a crucial role in the overall development of children, influencing their physical abilities, cognitive function, and social interaction skills. Particularly in children with developmental disorders such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), motor coordination challenges are pronounced. These children often experience delayed motor milestone achievement, poor stability, and difficulty performing complex motor tasks. Such impairments can severely affect daily activities, self-esteem, and social engagements. Studies suggest that these motor deficits are deeply connected to neurodevelopmental discrepancies, yet the specific underlying mechanisms continue to elude definitive explanation.
This Research Topic aims to delve into the complexities of motor coordination deficits in children with developmental disorders, proposing innovative intervention technologies that address these challenges while exploring their intersection with the primary symptoms of such disorders. By focusing on tailored and effective treatment plans, the research seeks to unpack the neuropsychological underpinnings that contribute to these motor problems and evaluate intervention outcomes.
To further our understanding of this critical issue, we invite contributions that explore a wide range of facets related to motor coordination in children with developmental disorders. We are particularly interested in articles covering:
o Characteristics of motor coordination in children with developmental disorders
o Linkages between motor skills deficits and the core symptoms of developmental disorders
o Neuropsychological aspects of motor coordination, including neuroimaging and neurophysiological traits
o Effects of motor-focused interventions on developmental disorders
Submissions exploring additional relevant research themes are also highly encouraged, as they will contribute to a broader comprehension and more effective interventions in this field.
