“…In children aged <1 year, five studies, of which one study was rated as having high methodological quality, found a positive association between age and FMS (Makela et al, 2018;Piallini et al, 2016;Righetto Greco et al, 2019;Siziba et al, 2018;Syrengelas et al, 2022), and two studies found no association (Majnemer & Barr, 2005;Nahar et al, 2019). In children aged 1-2 years, one study rated as having high methodological quality found a positive association between age and FMS (Costa et al, 2021), and one study found a negative association . In children aged 2-4 years, one study found a positive association between age and FMS (Saraiva et al, 2013), and two studies found no association (Donald et al, 2019;Kashala-Abotnes et al, 2018).…”

“…In children aged <1 year, two high-quality studies found no association between sex and FMS in children, and one high-quality study found that boys had lower FMS scores than girls (Pinheiro et al, 2014;Syrengelas et al, 2014Syrengelas et al, , 2022. In children aged 1-2 years, two high-quality studies found no significant association between sex and FMS (Costa et al, 2021;Koutra et al, 2012). In children aged 2-4 years, five studies found no significant association between sex…”

“…In children aged <1 year, two studies found no association between parental education and FMS (de Paiva et al, 2010;Majnemer & Barr, 2005) found a positive association (Nahar et al, 2019), and one study with high methodological quality found mixed results (Syrengelas et al, 2014). In children aged 1-2 years, two studies that were rated as high methodological quality examined the association between parental education and FMS, of which one study found no association (Costa et al, 2021), and one study found mixed results (Koutra et al, 2012). Six studies, of which one study was rated as having a high methodological quality, found no association between parental education and FMS in children aged 2-4 years (Donald et al, 2019;Dupont et al, 2018;Kashala-Abotnes et al, 2018;Leão et al, 2021;Lin et al, 2019;Santos et al, 2013).…”

Aim: This systematic review aims to summarize evidence on correlates of fundamental motor skills in typically developing children aged 0–4 years. Methods: A literature search (PubMed, Embase, PsycINFO, and SPORTDiscus) was performed from 2000 till 23 May 2022. Inclusion criteria was cross-sectional and prospective studies examining associations between a potential correlate and fundamental motor skills in typically developing, apparently healthy children aged 0–4 years. Two independent reviewers performed screening and methodological quality assessment. Results: Eighty-three studies met eligibility criteria and were included. Thirteen studies were of high methodological quality. In children aged <1 year, we found no evidence for family income, breastfeeding-related, sleep-related, home environment, and socioeconomic variables. In children aged 1–2 years, we found no evidence for sex, growth-related variables, singleton birth, and family income. In children aged 2–4 years, we found no evidence for screen behavior, toxicity, parental education, family income, socioeconomic variables, and maternal depression/anxiety and moderate evidence for a positive association with early childhood education and care setting type. For other examined correlates, we found insufficient evidence (inconsistent findings or only one study available). Conclusions: We found insufficient evidence for over half of examined potential correlates of fundamental motor skills. We recommend investing in better research methodologies and improved reporting.
