Initial fidelity of a powered mobility intervention
Background Powered mobility devices include any battery-operated and motorized device such as powered wheelchairs or modified ride-on cars. Off-the-shelf and battery-operated ride-on cars are modified through installation of a large and easy-to-press activation switch and custom seating support to facilitate greater accessibility for children with motor disabilities. Powered mobility devices are used in pediatric rehabilitation interventions and …

The Effect of Outdoor Play, Physical Activity, and Screen Time Use on the Emotional Wellbeing of Children and Youth during a Health Crisis
Long-standing research has highlighted the critical role of physical and outdoor activities for children's health and wellbeing. During the COVID-19 pandemic, children around the world experienced heightened stress and poor mental health, which coincided with a decrease in active play and increase in screen-based activities. This study examined how physical, outdoor, and screen-based activities impacted emotional wellbeing during the post-lockdow…
GoBot
In early motor interventions from clinical rehabilitation to physical activity encouragement, one major challenge is maintaining child engagement and motivation. Robots show unique promise for addressing this challenge, but providing robots with new types of autonomous functionality is vital for promoting robot integration and usefulness in the clinic and home spaces. To provide needed autonomy capabilities for GoBot, our assistive robot for chil…
Association between motor skills and executive function of children with autism spectrum disorder in Taiwan and the United States
Objective The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between parent ratings of motor skills and executive function (EF) in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in the United States and Taiwan. Materials and method One hundred and seventy-two parents/legal guardians of children (4–6 years and 11 months old) with ASD were recruited from two countries, Taiwan ( n = 100) and the United States ( n = 72). The parents or guardians…
Adaptative Strategies for Outdoor Recreation During a Time of Stress
Maintaining engagement in outdoor recreation during COVID-19 required adaptation as the pandemic continuously reshaped risk perceptions, use of outdoor space, and interpersonal contact. This study examined the role of four main adaptive strategies in outdoor recreation engagement among U.S. adults during one of the nation’s largest waves of COVID-19 cases and death. Cross-sectional data were collected through an online survey in February 2021 ( N…
Leisure Engagement during Covid-19 and Its Association with Mental Health and Wellbeing in U.S. Adults
Leisure engagement has risen as a salient societal issue during the COVID-19 pandemic, not only because it provides a pathway for people to continue meeting their physical, cognitive, and social-emotional needs, but also due to the phenomenal juxtaposition of general increases in leisure time and unparalleled constraints. This study reports the results of the first investigation of U.S. adults' overall leisure engagement and its association with …
Go Zika Go
Children with congenital Zika syndrome (CZS) present severe motor disability and can benefit from early powered mobility. The Go Zika Go project uses modified ride-on toy cars, which may advance the body functions, activities, and participation of children. This paper describes the study protocol aiming to assess the feasibility of a modified ride-on car intervention for children with CZS in Brazil. A mixed-methods design with a multiple 1-week b…
Physical Activity, Medical Home, and Health Behavior Counseling Among Adolescents with Special Health Care Needs
Fundamental motor skills
Disability models and attitudes among college students with and without disabilities
Unfavorable attitudes or stigma toward people with disabilities are invisible barriers that contribute to social inequities such as disparities in higher education enrollment and degree completion. Additionally, disability models, or underlying beliefs about whether disability is a problem inherent

Relationship Between Fundamental Motor Skill Competence and Physical Activity During Childhood and Adolescence
The purpose of this review is to synthesize the evidence of the relationship between fundamental motor skills (FMS) competence and physical activity by qualitatively describing results from 13 studies that met rigorous inclusion criteria. Inclusion criteria: (a) published in a peer-review journal, (b) participants were between the ages of 3–18, (c) participants were typically developing, (d) FMS was measured by a process-oriented assessment, (e) …
Motor Competence and its Effect on Positive Developmental Trajectories of Health
The influence of instructional climates on time spent in management tasks and physical activity of 2nd-grade students during physical education
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of two physical education (PE) instructional climates (mastery, performance) on the percentage of time students spent in a) moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and b) management tasks during PE in 2nd-grade students. Forty-eight 2nd graders (mastery, n = 23; performance, n = 25) participated in a daily, school-based five-week PE intervention. All students also participated in typical …
Exploring preschoolers’ engagement and perceived physical competence in an autonomy-based object control skill intervention
The purpose of this study was to describe children’s engagement during two (high and low) autonomy-based climates. Twenty-five preschool children participated in a nine-week object control skill intervention. Children completed the object control subscale of the Test of Gross Motor Development 2nd Edition and the perceived physical competence subscale of Harter and Pike’s Pictorial Scale of Perceived Competence and Social Acceptance (1984). Skill…
Getting the fundamentals of movement
The development of fundamental movement skills (FMS) is associated with positive health‐related outcomes. Children do not develop FMS naturally through maturational processes. These skills need to be learned, practised and reinforced. The objective was to determine the effectiveness of motor skill interventions in children. The following databases were searched for relevant articles: Academic Search Premier, PsycArticles, PsycInfo, SportDiscus an…
