Structural validity of the Movement ABC-2 test : factor structure comparisons across three age groups

TLDR

Deliberate Play and Preparation Jointly Benefit Motor and Cognitive Development: Mediated and Moderated Effects

TL;DR: Results suggest that specifically tailored physical activity (PA) games provide a unique form of enrichment that impacts children’s cognitive development through motor coordination improvement, particularly object control skills, which are linked to children's PA habits later in life.

Effect of preterm birth on motor development, behavior, and school performance of school-age children: a systematic review ,

TL;DR: Preterm infants are more susceptible to motor development, behavior and academic performance impairment when compared to term infants, and these types of impairments can be prevented through early parental guidance, monitoring by specialized professionals, and interventions.

Common White Matter Microstructure Alterations in Pediatric Motor and Attention Disorders

TL;DR: In this paper, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) measures were used to characterize white matter alterations in children with isolated or concurrent developmental coordination disorder and/or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) compared with typically-developing controls, and to determine whether group differences on motor and attention tasks could be explained by differences in DTI measures.
