“…An improvement in self-control can be attributed to the improvement of motor proficiency besides neural mechanisms [ 39 ]. It was observed that children with higher motor proficiency are more likely to perform daily activities successfully and, thus, develop their self-control [ 40 ]. Moreover, in game therapy, children can show their concerns in a safe psychological environment and become aware of their abilities, limitations, rules, and realities; practice new skills; and discover creative solutions to their challenges to cope with difficult situations [ 41 ].…”

This study is aimed at examining the effect of eight weeks of selected virtual-assisted games based on Montessori pedagogical principal on the motor proficiency and perceived self-control in the children with spastic hemiplegia during the coronavirus outbreak. In this quasi-experimental study, the children ( 6.42 y ± 1.12 y ) with hemiplegia were randomly selected and assigned to either the experimental group or the control group. In the pretest, motor skills and self-controlling were evaluated using 36-item Lincoln-Oseretsky Motor Development Scale and Children’s Perceived Self-Control Scale (CPSC) (ss, 1982), respectively. The experimental group then engaged in three 45-minute sessions of virtual game play over the course of eight weeks. 24 hours following the last practice session, the posttest was given on the same day as the pretest. After ensuring the normal distribution of collected data with Shapiro-Wilk test, the data were analyzed using Analysis of Covariance test (ANCOVA). Results showed that the experimental group compared to the control group was better in the motor proficiency and perceived self-control after performing selected virtual-assisted Montessori games can significantly improve motor proficiency and perceived self-control ( P < 0.05 ). This pattern of data revealed that the virtual-assisted intervention based on Montessori pedagogical principles may increase motor proficiency and self-control in children with hemiplegia, particularly when confronted with the limitations imposed on by the coronavirus epidemic.

“…Hal ini sejalan dengan penelitian Chandler yang menemukan anak-anak dengan kemampuan motorik halus yang lebih tinggi memiliki kemampuan menulis yang lebih baik pula. Kelenturan jari jemari sebagai indikasi keterampilan motorik halus menyebabkan anak dapat melaksanakan tugas menulis yang menantang, meskipun tingkat regulasi diri mereka sedang atau rendah (Chandler et al, 2021). Keterbacaan tulisan tangan anak juga sangat ditentukan keterampilan motorik halus anak (Seo, 2018).…”

Keterampilan motorik halus sangat diperlukan anak usia dini dalam kehidupan sehari-hari, misalnya untuk menolong diri sendiri (self help) seperti memasang kancing baju atau makan dan untuk keterampilan akademik, misalnya menulis dan menggambar orang secara lengkap. Penelitian ini bertujuan menemukan informasi tentang optimalisasi keterampilan motorik halus dengan menggunakan bahan bekas sebagai media dalam pembelajaran pada anak usia 5-6 tahun. Penelitian menggunakan metode kualitatif dan dilakukan pada 10 orang guru pada 3 (tiga) Raudhatul Athfal di Kota Medan yang telah menggunakan bahan bekas sebagai media pembelajaran. Mereka diminta kesediaannya sebelum menjadi responden. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan angket, wawancara, dan observasi. Analisis data menggunakan model Miles dan Huberman (Analysis Interactive Model). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan penggunaan bahan bekas dapat mengoptimalkan keterampilan motorik halus usia 5-6 dari level berkembang sesuai harapan sampai tingkat berkembang sangat baik Kata Kunci: Anak Usia Dini, Bahan Bekas, Keterampilan Motorik Halus

“…Two performance components have been identified that must be mastered before a child can succeed with handwriting [ 10 ]: fine motor coordination [ 11 ] and visual motor integration [ 12 ]. Fine motor coordination can be tested by the Nine-Hole Peg Test (9-HPT) [ 13 ], and visual-motor integration can be tested by the Beery–Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration (Beery™VMI-6) [ 14 ].…”

This article describes the translation and cultural adaptation process of the WRITIC (Writing Readiness Inventory Tool in Context) into European Portuguese. We examined the content and convergent validity, test-retest, and interrater reliability on the norm-referenced subdomain of the Portuguese (PT) WRITIC Task Performance (TP). To establish content validity, we consulted six experts in handwriting. Internal consistency was found with 70 children, test-retest reliability with 65, inter-rater reliability with 69, and convergent validity with 87. All participants were typically developing kindergarten children. Convergent validity was examined with the Beery–Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration (Beery™VMI-6) and the Nine Hole Peg-Test (9-HPT). On content validity, we found an agreement of 93%, a good internal consistency with Cronbach’s alpha of 0.72, and an excellent test-retest and inter-rater reliability with ICCs of 0.88 and 0.93. Correlations with Beery™VMI-6 and 9-HPT were moderate (r from 0.39 to 0.65). Translation and cross-cultural adaptation of WRITIC into European Portuguese was successful. WRITIC-PT-TP is stable over time and between raters; it has excellent internal consistency and moderate correlations with Beery™VMI-6 and 9-HPT. This analysis of the European Portuguese version of WRITIC gives us the confidence to start the implementation process of WRITIC-PT in Portugal.
