Effect of Goal-Directed Perceptual-Motor Exercise on Children with Learning Difficulties
Study Overview
This study explored how goal-directed perceptual-motor exercises can help children with Specific Learning Disorder (SLD). These exercises improve coordination, decision-making, and engagement in physical activities.
Research Details
A total of 38 children with SLD participated in this randomized clinical trial from September 2021 to April 2022. The children were divided into two groups:
- Control Group: 19 children received standard treatment.
- Intervention Group: 19 children received standard treatment plus perceptual-motor training.
We measured outcomes using the Bourdon Attention Test, Bruininks-Oseretsky Test 2-Short Form (BOT2-SF), and Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PEDSQL).
Key Findings
The results showed significant improvements in:
- Attention
- Fine and Gross Motor Skills
- Quality of Life
Conclusions
Goal-directed perceptual-motor training can enhance academic performance, social participation, and overall quality of life for children with SLD. Incorporating these exercises into educational programs can support cognitive skill development.
Trial Registration
The study protocol is registered at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05998083).
