“…The BOT-2 is a valid measure of the motor proficiency of any given children on a specific day. The test-retest reliability coefficients obtained by the previous studies were >.60 in disabled children and >.75 in sighted children (Butler & Koschtial, 1994;Cardoso & Magalhaes, 2009;Melograno & Loovis, 1991;Siegel, Marchetti, & Tecklin, 1991).…”

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the bilateral coordination in children and adolescents with visual impairments aged 7 to 18 years in comparison to their sighted peers. An additional objective was to identify the influence of sex and age on bilateral coordination. Seventy-five individuals with congenital severe visual impairment (40 girls and 35 boys) comprised the visually impaired group. The Sighted group comprised 139 youth without visual impairment. Subtest 4 of the Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency was administered to test bilateral coordination. To analyze the effect of the independent variables in the results obtained in the Subtest 4, four linear regression models were applied according to group and sex. The results indicated that severe visual impairment and lack of visual sensation had a negative effect on the development of participants' bilateral coordination, which however did not depend on sex or age.

“…Nos estudos anteriores a confiabilidade teste reteste dos itens de equilíbrio corporal e coordenação bilateral/sequenciamento motor foram investigados em crianças de 4, 6 e 8 anos, obtendo-se índices de 0,80 em 62,5% dos itens e 0,60 a 0,79 em 35% dos itens; e acima de 0,60 em somente 45,7% dos itens, respectivamente. Resultado similar ao optido aos 6 anos 13 quando somente 40% dos itens de coordenação bilateral e planejamento motor obtiveram CCI bom a excelente 9,13 . Observa-se, no presente estudo, que a confiabilidade teste reteste dos itens quantitativos foi mais alta provavelmente devido ao uso do teste t-student pareado, uma vez que ele não exige concordância absoluta dos itens, como o CCI.…”

“…As respostas, em ambos os questionários, são pontuadas em escala de quatro pontos com registro de frequência, variando de 1 = raro/nunca a 4 = sempre. Embora a ACOORDEM esteja em desenvolvimento, estudos anteriores reportam bons índices de confiabilidade para as idades de 6 a 8 anos 9,11,12,13 . O tempo médio para aplicação do teste completo com a criança é de aproximadamente 60 minutos.…”

“…Face à dificuldade de acesso a testes importados e à ausência de avaliação motora padronizada para crianças brasileiras, principalmente testes que englobam todos os critérios diagnósticos para o TDC, foi criada a Avaliação da Coordenação e Destreza Manual (ACOORDEM) 8 . A ACOORDEM é um teste descritivo para diagnóstico motor de crianças de 4 a 8 anos, com a perspectiva de que também seja um instrumento avaliativo, para mensurar mudanças ao longo do tempo como resultado de intervenção 9 . O processo de criação do teste baseou-se na Classificação Internacional de Funcionalidade, Incapacidade e Saúde 10, 11 e estudos de validade e confiabilidade do instrumento para crianças de 6 a 8 anos, já foram realizados 9,11,12,13 .…”

The Assessment of Motor Coordination andDexterity -ACOORDEM is a standardized motor assessment for Brazilian children aged 4-8 years. This study aimed to investigate the validity and reliability of the test for 4-yearold children. Eighty children of 4 years old, divided into equal groups by sex and school type (public or private), were evaluated. Parents and teachers also answered the questionnaires. The retest was applied to 10 participants. Few items showed a statistically significant difference associated with sex and school type. The test-retest reliability presented good indexes. ACOORDEM is suitable for the motor assessment of 4-year-old children; however, some items need to be revised or discarded to improve the instrument reliability and reduce the administration time.

The aims of the study were to compare the performance of children with probable developmental coordination disorder (DCD) and motor typically developing peers on items from the Assessment of Motor Coordination and Dexterity (AMCD), to determine whether age, gender and type of school had significant impact on the scores of the AMCD items, to estimate the frequency of DCD among Brazilian children ages 7 and 8 years and to investigate whether children with DCD exhibit more symptoms of attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder than children with motor typical development. A total of 793 children were screened by the Developmental Coordination Disorder Questionnaire - Brazilian version (DCDQ-Brazil); 90 were identified as at risk for DCD; 91 matched controls were selected from the remaining participants. Children in both groups were evaluated with the AMCD, the Movement Assessment Battery for Children (MABC-II) and Raven's coloured progressive matrices. Thirty-four children were classified as probable DCD, as defined by a combination of the DCDQ-Brazil and MABC-II scores (fifth percentile). The final frequency of DCD among children ages 7 and 8 years was 4.3%. There were significant differences between children with and without DCD on the majority of AMCD items, indicating its potential for identifying DCD in Brazilian children. The use of a motor test (MABC-II) that is not validated for the Brazilian children is a limitation of the present study. Further studies should investigate whether the AMCD is useful for identifying DCD in other age groups and in children from different regions of Brazil. The application of the AMCD may potentially contribute in improving occupational therapy practice in Brazil and in identifying children that could benefit from occupational therapy services.
