“…This condition make them to have more difficulty in adopting antigravitational postures and require more time to improve an acquired skill (Tudella, Pereira, Basso, & Savelsbergh, 2011). Furthermore, DS people have difficulty in performing precision goal-directed movement, and they are typically slower to achieve the same degree of accuracy compared with young adults (Elliott et al, 2010).…”

With the present study, we aimed to investigate the task complexity effects on the performance of a coincidence timing task in individuals with Down syndrome. The experimental group was consisted by 26 subjects with Down syndrome, 20 years old (± 5), and classified as mild or moderate in International Classification of Functioning and Health. Each participant in the experimental group was matched by in function of gender and age with a participant in a control group without Down syndrome. Both groups performed a coincident timing task, in which the participant had different levels of structural and functional complexity. Performance measure was derived from the consistency (absolute error), accuracy (variable error) and direction of response (constant error). Individuals with Down syndrome presented spatiotemporal organization impairments related to the difficulty in dealing with motor demand in order to interact with the perceptive demand. They also experienced difficulty in adapt to task complexity, causing performance error in the task. Individuals with Down syndrome have deficits in perceptive and space-time organization, and this phenomenon may be explained by the difficulty in integrating perceptive stimulus to motor actions with a high number of elements involved.

“…This set of attitudes provides learning and brings benefits to child development 12 . The acquisition of motor skills in children with DS, although slower, occurs gradually and in the same sequence as that of typical infants 14 . Considering these information and the exploration of space as a favorable environment for motor development, the objective of this study was to verify the influence of the home environment on motor development of infants with DS.…”

RESUMO Crianças com síndrome de Down apresentam atrasos no desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor relacionados a tônus muscular, controle postural e equilíbrio. O desenvolvimento motor sofre interferência multifatorial, que envolve características biológicas, psicológicas, sociais e ambientais. Assim, o ambiente em que o lactente está incluído pode atuar como facilitador do desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a influência do ambiente domiciliar no desenvolvimento motor de lactentes com síndrome de Down. Participaram do estudo 16 lactentes com a síndrome, divididos em grupo I (3 a 11 meses) e grupo II (12 a 18 meses), avaliados pela Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) e pelo questionário Affordances in the Home Environment for Motor Development - Infant Scale (AHEMD-IS). A análise de dados foi feita por meio do teste de Kruskal-Wallis, coeficiente de correlação de Spearman e teste de razão de verossimilhança. Os resultados evidenciaram uma correlação positiva significativa entre o escore bruto da AIMS e a variedade de estímulos (p=0,01, r=0,78) e com o escore total do questionário AHEMD-IS (p=0,02, r=0,74) no grupo II. Verificou-se, ainda, correlação entre a renda familiar e as oportunidades com brinquedos de função motora grossa (p=0,05, r=0,49), porém com correlação fraca. Conclui-se que o ambiente domiciliar tem importante papel no desenvolvimento motor de crianças com síndrome de Down entre 12 e 18 meses, por proporcionar oportunidades de vivências e experimentações. Assim, pode-se afirmar que ambientes mais adequados proporcionam melhor desempenho motor.

“…El TGMD-2 es utilizado para identificar déficit en el desarrollo motor grueso en niños entre 3 y 10 años, evaluando 12 habilidades agrupadas en 2 áreas: Habilidades de locomoción y habilidades de control de objeto (Ulrich, 2000). Los niños con SD han mostrado un retraso motor de hasta dos años en comparación con niños con desarrollo típico por lo que se justifica su aplicación en el rango de edad de esta muestra (Tudella et al, 2011).…”

“…Por otra parte el desarrollo motor es tradicionalmente estimulado durante los primeros años en los niños con SD, buscando un mejor control del tono postural y el logro de los principales hitos como mantenerse de pie o caminar (Tudella, Pereira, Basso, & Savelsbergh, 2011), sin embargo, con el aumento de la edad es común que los niños abandonen los programas de estimulación motriz. Malak et al (2015), examinó la función motora de niños con SD con la evaluación Gross Motor Function Measure-88 (GMFM-88) y equilibrio mediante la evaluación Pediatric Balance scale (PBS) encontrando que ninguno de los niños entre 3 a 6 años logró completar todas la pruebas propuestas por el GMFM-88 mostrando un retraso motor de dos años en comparación a niños con desarrollo típico.…”
