Consequences of Comorbidity of Developmental Coordination Disorders and Learning Disabilities for Severity and Pattern of Perceptual-Motor Dysfunction.
Jongmans, Marian J.; Smits-Engelsman, Bouwien C. M.; Schoemaker, Marina M.
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v36 n6 p528-37 Nov-Dec 2003
This study examined consequences of the comorbidity of developmental coordination disorder (DCD) and learning disability (LD) for the severity and pattern of perceptual-motor dysfunction. Compared to children with only DCD, those with DCD and LD had poorer perceptual-motor ability, with particular difficulty performing manual dexterity and balance tasks. Results suggest these children show a distinctive pattern of perceptual-motor dysfunction. (Contains references.) (Author/DB)
