Twelve typically developing (TD) children and 12 children with HFA/AS, ages 6–9 years, were recruited. Motor control skills were assessed through a variety of footedness tasks to determine location and nature of impairment, regarding motor dominance. Overall, greater inconsistencies in dominance arose in children with HFA/AS, through disparities in measures of preference. Results will have broader implications for understanding motor impairments in children with HFA/AS as determined by comparing performance on footedness tasks, as well as for the design of interventions to account for these deficits. | | En ligne : | http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10803-012-1469-0 | | Permalink : | http://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=1809 |
