The purpose of this study was to investigate an intervention using an adapted bicycle and individualized instruction to teach 71 youth to ride a standard two-wheel bicycle. Youth with DS (n = 30) and ASD (n = 41) between the ages of nine and 18 years took part in this study. After five days of training, 73.3% of children with DS and 85.4% with ASD successfully demonstrated the ability to ride the bicycle more than 100 feet. Leg strength differentiated riders from nonriders in both groups. For the youth with DS, those who learned to ride were significantly older and heavier than those who did not learn to ride. Participants with ASD who learned to ride were significantly taller and stronger than those with ASD who did not learn to ride a two-wheel bicycle. Implications are discussed.

Motor skills of toddlers with autism spectrum disorders / Meghann LLOYD in Autism, 17-2 (March 2013)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 17-2 (March 2013) . - p.133-146 Titre : Motor skills of toddlers with autism spectrum disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Meghann LLOYD, Auteur ; Megan MACDONALD, Auteur ; Catherine LORD, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.133-146 Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder  early development  fine motor skills  gross motor skills  motor development  toddlers Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : With increased interest in the early diagnosis and treatment of children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), more attention has been called to the motor skills of very young children with ASD. This study describes the gross and fine motor skills of a cross-sectional group of 162 children with ASD between the ages of 12 and 36 months, as well as a subset of 58 children followed longitudinally. Gross motor and fine motor age equivalent scores were obtained for all children. A ‘motor difference’ variable was calculated for each child’s gross and fine motor skills by taking the absolute difference of the children’s age equivalent motor score and their respective chronological age. In Study 1 (the cross-sectional analysis), ANCOVA (co-varied for nonverbal problem solving) revealed significant group differences in the gross motor and fine motor age difference variables. Post-hoc analysis revealed that gross motor and fine motor differences became significantly greater with each 6-month period of chronological age. In Study 2, 58 children were measured twice, an average of 12 months apart. Results indicate that the gross motor and fine motor difference scores significantly increased between the first and second measurements. The importance of addressing motor development in early intervention treatments is discussed.

The relationship of motor skills and adaptive behavior skills in young children with autism spectrum disorders / Megan MACDONALD in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 7-11 (November 2013)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 7-11 (November 2013) . - p.1383-1390 Titre : The relationship of motor skills and adaptive behavior skills in young children with autism spectrum disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Megan MACDONALD, Auteur ; Catherine LORD, Auteur ; Dale ULRICH, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1383-1390 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Motor skills  Young children  Adaptive behavior Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : AbstractObjective To determine the relationship of motor skills and adaptive behavior skills in young children with autism. Design A multiple regression analysis tested the relationship of motor skills on the adaptive behavior composite, daily living, adaptive social and adaptive communicative skills holding constant age, non-verbal problem solving, and calibrated autism severity. Setting Majority of the data collected took place in an autism clinic. Participants A cohort of 233 young children with ASD (n = 172), PDD-NOS (n = 22) and non-ASD (developmental delay, n = 39) between the ages of 14–49 months were recruited from early intervention studies and clinical referrals. Children with non-ASD (developmental delay) were included in this study to provide a range of scores indicted through calibrated autism severity. Interventions Not applicable. Main outcome measures The primary outcome measures in this study were adaptive behavior skills. Results Fine motor skills significantly predicted all adaptive behavior skills (p lt; 0.01). Gross motor skills were predictive of daily living skills (p lt; 0.05). Children with weaker motor skills displayed greater deficits in adaptive behavior skills. Conclusions The fine and gross motor skills are significantly related to adaptive behavior skills in young children with autism spectrum disorder. There is more to focus on and new avenues to explore in the realm of discovering how to implement early intervention and rehabilitation for young children with autism and motor skills need to be a part of the discussion.
