“…A longitudinal birth cohort in Canada has revealed the protective effects of parent-child interactions and language stimulation on child language development [32]. An adequate home environment, which represents good parenting quality, is associated with better child motor development in southern Brazil [33]. Some randomized controlled trials had highlighted that interventions on maternal play and parenting skills have also improved young children's social, emotional, communication, language, and cognitive competence [25,34,35].…”

Environmental exposures, especially parenting quality, are critical for later child development. This study aimed to determine the status of parenting quality and suspected development delay of preschool children in China’s urban area and explore the associations between these two factors. The research was based on a birth cohort study conducted in Changsha, Hunan province, China. We used the Parenting Assessment Tool and Ages and Stages Questionnaires, Third Edition (ASQ-3), to measure parenting quality and child development status, respectively. Other data were collected from maternal health manuals and self-administered questionnaires during the follow-up period. The generalized estimating equation was used to examine whether parenting quality was significantly associated with child development outcomes. In the study, good parenting quality was 33.6% measured at 18 months, and suspected development delay was below 10% at 36–48 months among urban China; we observed negative associations between parenting quality scores and child development scores; poor parenting quality had a negative association with suspected development delay [OR and 95% CI: 2.74 (1.17, 6.40)], girls [OR and 95% CI: 0.33 (0.16, 0.69)] and maternal education years (>12 years) [OR and 95% CI: 0.27 (0.12, 0.64)] were protective factors for suspected development delay. Our findings highlighted the importance of good parenting quality among children in urban areas of China through a birth cohort study and may be used to reduce the children at high risk of developmental delay as a future intervention program.

“…Another factor to be considered is that the questionnaire used to assess SP was not validated, as well as the BOT-2 test, which is currently not validated to use with the Brazilian population. However, it is important to note that this assessment has been frequently used in studies in Brazil 30,31,32 . This study, as many others, is cross-sectional.…”

The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between Sport Participation (SP) and Motor Competence (MC) in school-age children, and to assess the mediation role of Body Mass Index (BMI) on this association. 707 children (332 boys, 375 girls) aged between 6-to 10 years participated in the study. Motor competence was determined using the Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency (BOT-2). Parents were asked about organized SP, categorized as 1) no participation, 2) partial participation and 3) consistent participation, and BMI was calculated based on the child's height and weight. The results indicated significant differences for all MC components and total score for SP categories, all p < .05, with higher results for consistent participation in sports. For BMI, significant differences occurred in all components, with the exception of fine manual control and manual coordination. Our findings showed that SP was associated with MC, and BMI was not an important factor in these relationships. However, a small mediation of BMI was found, but only for obese children. In summary, we conclude that sport participation plays a relevant role in the development of motor competence in school-age children, and that association is, in general, not mediated by weight status.

RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a associação entre Participação Esportiva (PE) e Competência Motora (CM) em crianças em idade escolar e avaliar o papel da mediação do Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC) nesta associação. Foram avaliadas 707 crianças (332 meninos, 375 meninas) com idades entre 6 e 10 anos participaram do estudo. A competência motora foi determinada usando o Teste Bruininks-Oseretsky de Proficiência Motora (BOT-2). Os pais foram questionados sobre a SP organizada, categorizada como 1) sem participação, 2) participação parcial e 3) participação consistente, e o IMC foi calculado com base na altura e no peso da criança. Os resultados indicaram diferenças significativas para todos os componentes do CM e escore total para as categorias de PS, todos p <0,05, com resultados mais altos para a participação consistente nos esportes. Para o IMC, ocorreram diferenças significativas em todos os componentes, com exceção do controle manual e da coordenação manual. Nossos achados mostraram que a SP estava associada à CM, e o IMC não foi um fator importante nessas relações. No entanto, uma pequena mediação do IMC foi encontrada, mas apenas para crianças obesas. Concluímos que a participação esportiva desempenha um papel relevante no desenvolvimento da competência motora em crianças em idade escolar, e essa associação, em geral, não é mediada pelo status de peso. Palavras-chave: Competência motora. Índice de massa corporal. Participação esportiva. Crianças em idade escolar.

“…In addition, the fact that the families of the children in experimental group-I and the mothers of the children in experimental group-II continued the activities at home presented in the family involvement studies to support the motor developments of the children during the semester holiday elapsing from the posttest to retention test may have made contribution to the continuity of the effect of the programs. It is expressed in the literature that the participation of the families to the education given to the preschool children is effective in the success of the child and the retention of the success is possible by supporting and maintaining the education at home (Turkish Ministry of National Education, 2013b; Temel, 2008) and also the other researches reflect that the stimulating environment created at home has an important role in children's motor development (Ferreira, Godinez, Gabbard, Vieira, & Caçola, 2018).…”

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of the motor development support programs conducted on 36-47 month-old children and mothers with children of this age group on motor development of children and to compare the effects of the program conducted on the children and the program conducted on the the mothers. The sample group of the study consisted of 13 children of 36-43 months (experimental group-I), 10 mothers with 36-43 month-old children (experimental group-II) and 12 children of 36-43 months (control group). The data were collected by means of using the Peabody Developmental Motor Scales-2. Experimental group-I was applied the motor development support program for children (MDSP-C) while experimental group-II was applied the motor development support program for mothers (MDSP-M). As a result of the study, it was determined that the score increase in both the stationary subtest and gross motor quotient of the children was caused by the motor development support programs (MDSP-C & MDSP-M), yet the experimental procedures did not provide any advantages compared to each other. It was also determined that neither MDSP-C nor MDSP-M had any effects in increasing the locomotion, object manipulation, grasping, visual-motor integration and fine motor scores of the children.
