Jang, Yujin; Hong, Yea-Ji – Early Child Development and Care, 2022
This study examined two subfactors of fundamental movement skills: locomotion skills and object-control skills. The direct and indirect effects of children's temperament on fundamental movement skills and the mediating effects of autonomy and self-regulation were examined. Participants included 278 pairs of 3- to 5-year-old children and their…

Carballo-Fazanes, Aida; Díaz-Pereira, María P.; Fernández-Villarino, María A.; Abelairas-Gómez, Cristian; Rey, Ezequiel – Psychology in the Schools, 2023
Schools have been postulated as ideal environments to encourage physical activity (PA). This study aimed to assess the relationship between PA in school hours, motor competence, and screen time in a sample of Spanish preschool children. Fifty-seven 4-5-year-old preschoolers (n = 32 girls) participated. The Garmin Vivofit wristband was used to…

Functional Movement Proficiency's Association to Actual and Perceived Motor Competence
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Coker, Cheryl A.; Herrick, Brittney – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2021
The adoption of compensatory movement patterns occurs when limitations in mobility, stability, or motor control prevent proper motion from occurring. These dysfunctional movements may inhibit fundamental motor skill development and negatively influence perceived movement competence, impeding the development of physical literacy. Therefore, this…
