Journal ArticleDOI

Developmental coordination disorder, generalized self-efficacy toward physical activity, and participation in organized and free play activities.

TL;DR: The results suggest that children with DCD are less likely to be physically active and that generalized self-efficacy can account for a considerable proportion of this relationship.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physical Activity and Fitness in Children with Developmental Coordination Disorder: A Systematic Review.

TL;DR: It has been demonstrated that body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness, muscle strength and endurance, anaerobic capacity, power, and physical activity have all been negatively associated, to various degrees, with poor motor proficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Developmental coordination disorder and overweight and obesity in children aged 9-14 y.

TL;DR: The results show that for boys, DCD may be a risk factor for overweight/obesity in childhood and early adolescence, and for girls, there is no difference in the prevalence of overweight or obesity between children with and without the disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gender, perceived competence and the enjoyment of physical education in children: a longitudinal examination.

TL;DR: It is indicated that lower perceived athletic competence is associated with low enjoyment of PE, and, among girls, with declining enjoyment, and interventions in a PE context that target perceived competence should be considered in future work.
Journal ArticleDOI

Developmental coordination disorder, sex, and activity deficit over time: a longitudinal analysis of participation trajectories in children with and without coordination difficulties

TL;DR: Children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) participate in active play less than typically developing children, and whether the activity deficit between children with and without DCD widens or diminishes over time is unknown.
