Leah E. Robinson,David F. Stodden,Lisa M. Barnett,Vítor P. Lopes,Samuel W. Logan,Luis Paulo Rodrigues,Eva D'Hondt,Eva D'Hondt +7 more
TL;DR: Evidence indicates that motor competence is positively associated with perceived competence and multiple aspects of health, but questions related to the increased strength of associations across time and antecedent/consequent mechanisms remain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Getting the fundamentals of movement: a meta-analysis of the effectiveness of motor skill interventions in children
TL;DR: Motor skill interventions are effective in improving FMS in children and early childhood education centres should implement 'planned' movement programmes as a strategy to promote motor skill development in children.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship Between Fundamental Motor Skill Competence and Physical Activity During Childhood and Adolescence: A Systematic Review
TL;DR: 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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Instructional climates in preschool children who are at-risk. Part I: object-control skill development.
TL;DR: The authors conclude that developmentally and instructionally appropriate climates are beneficial to OC skill learning, along with the need for “planned” movement experiences in motor learning environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fundamental motor skills: A systematic review of terminology
TL;DR: It is recommended that researchers provide an operational definition of FMS that states FMS are the “building blocks” of more advanced, complex movements and specific categories of skills that compose FMS.
