“…Performance measures of children with developmental delay showed greater variability (Figure 2). More variability in tasks involving manual movements has been reported in individuals with developmental delay due to autism and Down syndrome (Glazebrook et al, 2006; Noghondar et al, 2021). While we took the average of three measures on the same test session to consider repeatability factor, further studies can be conducted to understand the repeatability of the outcome parameters measured over different days or weeks.…”

Eye–hand coordination is a visuomotor task that enables one to look, localize, and touch objects. Eye–hand coordination is known to be poor in children with developmental delay. In this study, we assessed the feasibility of measuring eye–hand coordination task in children with developmental delay using Sanet Vision Integrator (SVI), a commercially available device. Children (age: 3–16 years) with developmental delay and their age-similar typically developing peers were enrolled. White circles (5.5°) on a black background were presented on the SVI touch screen monitor. Participants popped these circles by touching it. Reaction time, accuracy, and an overall performance score were computed. Participants could perform the task from 4 years of age and with visual acuity 20/400 (6/120) or better. This resulted in 85% (17/20) of children with developmental delay and 95% (19/20) of typically developing children completing the task. Children with developmental delay were significantly ( p < .001) less accurate (56%) and took longer (2.63 s) to complete the task when compared with their peers (accuracy = 93%, reaction time = 1.46 s). The overall performance score of children with developmental delay was also lower than their peers by a factor of 3.3. Eye–hand coordination performance can be measured and quantified with SVI. The quantification of speed and accuracy is possible and a unitary measure combining speed-accuracy can be computed. The task can be performed both by typically developing children and by children with developmental delay. Thus, it is feasible to measure eye–hand coordination using SVI. Such quantification will be useful for children undergoing interdisciplinary therapies for their medical conditions.

“…Tennis training is a continuous process that aims to improve athletes' skills, pedagogically organized and organized into a complete unit called training sessions (Manzoor et al, 2020). Tennis training sessions begin, and athletes are trained regularly and continuously with three sessions a week and 45 minutes each session (Noghondar et al, 2021). The main training sessions in the exercise group are carried out by training 3 times a week for 2 hours, per the Russian Federal Standard of sports training (Mischenko et al, 2021).…”

Learning to improve sports skills takes a long time to master. Assistive devices and modifications to training time are needed to improve students' abilities. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of use by modifying exercises that can help in mastering forehand groundstroke skills in sports students learning court tennis. The subjects of the study were 48 sports students, with male gender. The method of dividing subjects into treatment groups is to match pairs in consideration of Pretest scores before treatment. This research instrument uses Kemp-Vincent Rally Test with validity levels of 0.80 and 0.93 while reliability is 0.90 and 0.86. The data analysis technique uses a paired t-test with a signification level of α = 0.05. Test the normality and homogeneity of groundstroke skills using the Bartlet test. The analysis of these results showed that boteli exercises with a weekly frequency of twice affected forehand groundstroke skills. Second-time comparison of sig data results. (2-tailed), values 0.000 < 0.05. This means h0 rejected h1 is acceptable, so it can be concluded that the frequency of exercise a week is twice as good as the frequency of exercise once a week in influencing boteli exercise to improve the reliability of tennis groundstroke forehand rally. This study concludes that providing equipment modifications and training time can improve the ability of sports students to master rally forehand groundstroke skills.

“…A study examined the effects of a massage-related intervention on motor skills in children with DS, finding that the intervention promoted the children's locomotion and object manipulation (Silva et al, 2012). Another study also confirmed that a throwing training intervention improved overhand throwing skills in children with DS (Noghondar et al, 2019). More recently, a study examined the effects of a technology-based intervention on motor skills in children with DS, revealing that the intervention improved both locomotor and object control skills (Regaieg et al, 2020).…”

“…Given that individuals with DS experience these motor skill deficits, promoting their motor skills has received attention from researchers. A body of literature has found significant positive effects of interventions on motor skills in individuals with DS (Noghondar et al, 2019;Regaieg et al, 2020;Silva et al, 2012). A study examined the effects of a massage-related intervention on motor skills in children with DS, finding that the intervention promoted the children's locomotion and object manipulation (Silva et al, 2012).…”

Given inconsistent findings in the literature as to the effects of interventions on motor skills in individuals with Down syndrome (DS), the purpose of the current study was to examine the effects of interventions on motor skills in individuals with DS by using meta-analysis procedures. A systematic database and manual search identified 15 studies meeting predetermined inclusion criteria. Hedge's g equation was used to calculate effect size for the effects of interventions on motor skills in individuals with DS. A random effect model analysis revealed a medium overall effect size for the interventions on motor skills was medium (δ = 0.65, SE = 0.16, p < .001, 95% confidence interval [0.33, 0.96]). Total dose (> 785 min) and session time (> 38 min) were significant moderators for the effects (Q = 5.00, df = 1, p = 0.03; Q = 7.12, df = 1, p = 0.008, respectively). The current meta-analysis provided support for the effectiveness of interventions on motor skills in individuals with DS. These findings should be considered when creating and developing interventions for motor skills in individuals with DS.
