HKIN 425 Lecture Notes - Lecture 20: Mental Chronometry, Grip Strength, Motor Coordination
Document Summary
Screen for developmental delays: developing, assess fitness and health of children. Outcome testing: process testing, how skill was performed. Predictor of participation in activity: outcome testing, was skill successful, not a predictor of activity participation. Product oriented: movement abc, motoriktest f r vier- bis sechsj hrige kinder (mot 4-6) Process and product oriented: test of gross motor development. Measurement issues: appropriate tests need to be chosen often in the context of physical fitness, considerable overlap in tests, strength, motor control, agility, coordination, etc. Jumping (horizontal or vertical: motor coordination and muscular power, throwing (for distance, motor coordination and muscular power, running (distance or shuttle, speed power and coordination, agility rapidly change direction. Reaction time: balance (beam walk/run; diver"s stance; one foot; etc. , static or dynamic. Flexibility (sit and reach; others: joint specific, others, kicking for distance, hopping/skipping for distance, throwing/kicking for accuracy. Motor performance in early childhood (2-6 years: limited information.
