Interceptive skills in children aged 9–11 years, diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Caroline P. WHYATT in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 7-5 (May 2013)

WHYATT, Auteur ; Cathy M. CRAIG, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.613-623 Mots-clés : Catching  Tau-coupling  Motor Control  Timing  ASD Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Growing evidence suggests that significant motor problems are associated with a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), particularly in catching tasks. Catching is a complex, dynamic skill that involves the ability to synchronise one's own movement to that of a moving target. To successfully complete the task, the participant must pick up and use perceptual information about the moving target to arrive at the catching place at the right time. This study looks at catching ability in children diagnosed with ASD (mean age 10.16 ± 0.9 years) and age-matched non-verbal (9.72 ± 0.79 years) and receptive language (9.51 ± 0.46) control groups. Participants were asked to “catch” a ball as it rolled down a fixed ramp. Two ramp heights provided two levels of task difficulty, whilst the sensory information (audio and visual) specifying ball arrival time was varied. Results showed children with ASD performed significantly worse than both the receptive language (p = .02) and non-verbal (p = .02) control groups in terms of total number of balls caught. A detailed analysis of the movement kinematics showed that difficulties with picking up and using the sensory information to guide the action may be the source of the problem.

Motor Skills in Children Aged 7–10 Years, Diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Caroline P. WHYATT in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 42-9 (September 2012)

WHYATT, Auteur ; Cathy M. CRAIG, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.1799-1809 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Motor control  Manual dexterity  Ball skills  Balance Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study used the Movement Assessment Battery for Children (M-ABC2) to assess motor skills in children aged 7–10 years with autism (n = 18) in comparison to two groups of age-matched typically developing children; a receptive vocabulary matched group (n = 19) and a nonverbal IQ matched group (n = 22). The results supported previous work, as indicated by a significant general motor impairment in the group with autism. However, sub-analysis of the M-ABC2 revealed that there were only 2 out of 8 subcomponent skills which showed universal significant specific deficits for the autism group; i.e. catching a ball and static balance. These results suggest that motor skill deficits associated with autism may not be pervasive but more apparent in activities demanding complex, interceptive actions or core balance ability.
