Impact of Covid-19 restrictions on motor coordination in Italian school-aged children
Introduction The development of motor coordination (MC) is essential during childhood and is closely influenced by opportunities for physical activity (PA) and sports participation. The COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictions may have altered children's motor experiences and the related MC development. To what extent MC has changed in Italian school-aged children from before the pandemic until its end and beyond remains unclear. The aim of thi…
Motor Skill Development at Preschool Age in Girls and Boys: The Role of Outdoor Free Play
Males might capitalize on free outdoor play opportunities as early as preschool age to engage in activities that promote their motor and especially object control skill development. Longitudinal studies are needed to test causality and derive practical indications for enabling both males and females to fully exploit the opportunities provided by free outdoor play to exercise both locomotor and object control skills
Gross motor coordination in relation to weight status: A longitudinal study in children and pre-adolescents
Introduction: Gross Motor Coordination (GMC) is crucial for the adequate development of motor competence. Our purpose in this semi-longitudinal study was to evaluate the influence of BMI on GMC in children and pre-adolescents of both sexes, across school years (classes). Methods: We evaluated 117 subjects (aged 8-13 years) belonging to three different cohorts for 4 consecutive years, providing data over 6 years (classes). GMC was assessed through…
Cognitively enriched physical activity may foster motor competence and executive function as early as preschool age: A pilot trial
Background The relation between physical activity (PA), motor skills and cognitive function in children is receiving considerable attention. To transition scientific evidence into pedagogical practice, however, we need to further our understanding of which qualitative PA characteristics are best suited to stimulate motor skills and executive functions (EFs) relevant for children to develop their full potential.Purpose The purpose of this pilot st…
Effects of sports experience on children's gross motor coordination level
BackgroundGross motor coordination (GMC) development could be influenced by age, gender, weight status, geographical area, living setting, home environment, socio-economic status, sports practice.PurposeTo verify whether practicing sports and practicing different sports could influence children's GMC level.MethodsA total of 295 children aged 8-11 years were involved in the study and divided into 5 groups in relation to the sport they practiced: g…
Körperkoordinations test für Kinder: A short form is not fully satisfactory
Assessment of motor competence (MC) is crucial to finding deficiencies in children's motor development. Because of the need to ensure validity, reliability, and feasibility, the selection of contemporary testing batteries is a difficult task. Many papers report the validity of the KTK test in describing MC in school aged children. KTK consists of 4 four separate items: walking back, jumping sideways, moving sideways, and hopping for height. Some …
Effects of an Online Supervised Exercise Training in Children with Obesity during the Covid-19 Pandemic
COVID-19 restrictions have dramatically reduced the active lifestyle and physical activity (PA) levels in the whole population, a situation that can contribute to weight gain and to develop obesity. To improve physical fitness (PF) in children with obesity during COVID-19 restrictions, sport specialists started to deliver physical training through tele-exercise. For these reasons, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a 12-week onl…
