“…The likely downstream effect is performance difficulty on complex tasks that involve both visuomotor coordination and cognitive processing, e.g., dual-tasks like navigating on foot while solving a cognitive task, or sequential motor tasks that require cognitive problem solving. Future research should consider involving older children and adults, careful screening of comorbid conditions that may impact inhibition, prior levels of physical activity (i.e., motor experience), and consideration of IQ and its relationship to executive function and visio-spatial constructional ability ( Vaivre-Douret et al, 2020 ).…”

Children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) show deficits in motor-cognitive coupling. However, it remains unclear whether such deficits depend on the severity of DCD. The aim of this study was to examine cognitive-motor coupling under different levels of inhibitory control in children with severe (s-DCD) or moderate DCD (m-DCD), compared with typically-developing children (TDC). The performance of 29 primary-school children aged 6–12 years with s-DCD (Mage = 9.12 ± 1.56 years), 53 m-DCD (Mage = 8.78 ± 1.67 years), and 201 TDC (Mage = 9.20 ± 1.50 years) was compared on a double jump reaching task (DJRT) paradigm, presented on a large 42-inch touchscreen. The task display had a circular home-base, centred at the bottom of the display, and three target locations at radials of −20°, 0°, and 20°, 40 cm above the home-base circle. For the standard double-jump reaching task (DJRT), children moved their index finger from home-base circle to touch the target stimulus as fast as possible; 20% were jump trials where the target shifted left or right at lift-off. For the anti-jump reaching task (AJRT), 20% of trials required an anti-jump movement, touching the contralateral target location. While no group differences were shown on the DJRT, the DCD group were slower to complete reaching movements than the TDC group on AJRT; on the latter, the two DCD sub-groups were not shown to differ. Results confirm the presence of motor inhibition deficits in DCD which may not be dependent on the motor severity of the disorder.

“…While studies have shown the correlation of motor impairment severity and IQ in the context of Autism (Kaur et al, 2018;Surgent et al, 2021), few studies have investigated same in the context of DCD. One of the few, carried out by Vaivre-Douret et al (2020) found slightly less severe DCD symptoms in certain areas, notably ideomotor and Visio-Spatial/Constructive tasks in high IQ groups with DCD compared to controls. The cognitive functioning of high IQ children with DCD was found to vary from controls, with a better performance executive functioning and visio-spatial skills but lesser performance in auditory attention and memory tasks.…”

Despite the abundant literature on intelligence and high potential individuals, there is still a lack of international consensus on the terminology and clinical characteristics associated to this population. It has been argued that unstandardized use of diagnosis tools and research methods make comparisons and interpretations of scientific and epidemiological evidence difficult in this field. If multiple cognitive and psychological models have attempted to explain the mechanisms underlying high potentiality, there is a need to confront new scientific evidence with the old, to uproot a global understanding of what constitutes the neurocognitive profile of high-potential in gifted individuals. Another particularly relevant aspect of applied research on high potentiality concerns the challenges faced by individuals referred to as "twice exceptional" in the field of education and in their socio-affective life. Some individuals have demonstrated high forms of intelligence together with learning, affective or neurodevelopmental disorders posing the question as to whether compensating or exacerbating psycho-cognitive mechanisms might underlie their observed behavior. Elucidating same will prove relevant to questions concerning the possible need for differential diagnosis tools, specialized educational and clinical support. A meta-review of the latest findings from neuroscience to developmental psychology, might help in the conception and reviewing of intervention strategies.
