Disorders of motor development (clumsy child syndrome).
[child syndrome]
This
presentation
will
focus
on
motor
competence
,
the
clumsy
child
,
perceptual
deficits
in
clumsy
children
and
possible
neurological
dysfunction
in
this
group
of
children
.
Motor
competence
not
only
allows
children
to
carry
out
everyday
practical
tasks
,
but
it
is
also
an
important
determinant
of
their
level
of
self-esteem
and
of
their
popularity
and
status
in
their
peer
group
.
Research
has
shown
that
about
6
-
10
%
of
children
have
motor
competences
well
below
the
norm
.
It
is
unusual
for
motor
problems
to
simply
disappear
over
time
.
In
the
absence
of
intervention
the
syndrome
is
likely
to
manifest
itself
.
In
the
clinical
literature
attempts
have
been
made
to
establish
causal
links
between
surface
manifestations
of
clumsiness
and
underlying
perceptual
deficits
.
In
this
respect
the
attention
is
primarily
directed
towards
the
concept
of
inter-
and
intra-modal
matching
,
particularly
with
respect
to
vision
and
proprioception
,
an
ability
deemed
to
underlie
many
real-life
motor
skills
.
Neurobehavioural
model
of
inter-
and
intra-modal
matching
and
deficit
model
is
presented
.
Findings
from
studies
using
this
paradigm
are
discussed
and
it
is
argued
that
clumsiness
must
be
seen
as
a
neurological
dysfunction
(
insufficiency
)
.
