“…Two studies included participants with Autistic Spectrum Disorder [ 56 , 57 ], and another study recruited children from special educational needs (SEN) schools [ 58 ]. Eight defined themselves as sampling children with learning and/or attentional problems [ 54 , 59 – 65 ], three studies recruited children with visual impairments [ 66 – 68 ], and the sample of one study included children with a disability or chronic health condition [ 69 ]. Information regarding socioeconomic status (SES) was included in one article which stated they sampled from low SES [ 70 ], while two studies recruited samples from indigenous populations (in Australia and Canada, respectively) [ 44 , 71 ], the latter of which focused on the recruitment of children whose mothers drank alcohol during pregnancy [ 71 ].…”

“…An adapted version of the MABC-2 was also tested (e.g. increasing the colour contrast on the ball), with results showing that the modified version was a reliable assessment tool for use with children with low vision (inter-rater reliability-ICC = .97; test-retest reliability-ICC = .96; internal consistency-Cronbach's alpha ranged from 0.790 to 0.868) [66]. Strong evidence for content validity was found for both the Brazilian [83] and the Chinese [122] versions of the assessment tool, with concordance rates amongst experts ranging from 71.8%-99.2%.…”

“…(Continued) evaluating the validity and reliability of FMS assessment tools were conducted in 29 countries, with Australia hosting the most studies(13) [50,56,[71][72][73][74][75][76][77], followed by Brazil (12 studies)[53,57,66,70,[78][79][80][81][82][83][84][85] and the USA (nine studies).

The validity and reliability of observational assessment tools available to measure fundamental movement skills in school-age children: A systematic review

Background Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) play a critical role in ontogenesis. Many children have insufficient FMS, highlighting the need for universal screening in schools. There are many observational FMS assessment tools, but their psychometric properties are not readily accessible. A systematic review was therefore undertaken to compile evidence of the validity and reliability of observational FMS assessments, to evaluate their suitability for screening. Methods A pre-search of 'fundamental movement skills' OR 'fundamental motor skills' in seven online databases (PubMed, Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid Embase, EBSCO CINAHL, EBSCO SPORTDiscus, Ovid PsycINFO and Web of Science) identified 24 assessment tools for school-aged children that: (i) assess FMS; (ii) measure actual motor competence and (iii) evaluate performance on a standard battery of tasks. Studies were subsequently identified that: (a) used these tools; (b) quantified validity or reliability and (c) sampled school-aged children. Study quality was assessed using COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments (COSMIN) checklists. Results Ninety studies were included following the screening of 1863 articles. Twenty-one assessment tools had limited or no evidence to support their psychometric properties. The Test of

Objective The integration of various senses with each other in the form of perceptual-motor activities can lead to the promotion of different aspects of physical, perceptual, cognitive, and psychosocial development. Decreased visual acuity in children with visual impairment makes it difficult to develop motor skills, including gross motor skills. A few studies have used perceptual-motor interventions in these children with no specific framework. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of a perceptual-motor intervention based on Johnstone and Ramon's method on the gross motor skills of children with visual impairment. Materials & Methods In this randomized controlled trial, the study population consisted of children aged 7-10 years with visual impairment (blind or with low vision) studying in three schools of Narjes (Girls' school), Shaid Mohebbi, and Shahid Khazaeli (Boys' schools) in Tehran City, Iran in 2018 (n=140). Of these children, 24 who had met inclusion criteria were selected and randomly assigned into two intervention (n=12) and control (n=12) groups. The perceptual-motor program was designed based on Johnstone and Ramon's method and validated by a panel of experts that included four members of the Department of Occupational Therapy, the University of Social Welfare and Rehabilitation Sciences, and one optometrist from the Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences. The intervention group received the perceptual-motor program for two months, three 45-min sessions per week (24 sessions in total). The gross motor skills of both groups were measured by the second edition of Movement Assessment Battery for Children (MABC-2) test (aiming/catching and balance subscales) and the second edition of Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD-2) (locomotor and object control subscales) in three stages: Pre-test, post-test, and 1-month follow-up. Data analysis was performed using the Shapiro-Wilk test, Mann-Whitney U test, Friedman test, Bonferroni test, and generalized estimating equation in SPSS V. 22. The significance level was set at 0.05. Results The Mean±SD ages of children in the intervention and control groups were 9.2±1.1 and 8.3±1.2 years, respectively. The Mean±SD scores of aiming/catching skill in the intervention group reached from 4.17±2.82 in the Pre-test phase to 11.17±1.95 in the post-test and 10.92±1.62 in the follow-up phases. In the control group, the Mean±SD scores were 3.83±2.79 in the Pre-test, 4.25±3.08 in the post-test, and 4.67±2.93 in the follow-up. The Mean±SD scores of the balance skill
