Background and Aims Fundamental motor skills and attentional difficulties are observed in a large proportion of children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This study aimed to investigate the effect of a 4-week training fundamental movement with the approach of teaching games for understanding (TGfU) on motor and cognitive skills in children with ADHD. Methods The study was quasi-experimental, using a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. A total of 18 students between the ages of 7 and 10 years (mean age: 8.05±1.10 y) were selected as the sample. In the pre-test stage, participants performed the third edition of the test of gross motor development and attention networks test. The participants were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The training process consisted of 4 weeks (2 sessions of 60 minutes per week) with the approach of TGfU. After the intervention process, a post-test was taken. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance with repeated measurements and independent t test. Results The results of data analysis showed a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in motor skills (P=0.001), including locomotor (P<0.001), hub skills (P=0.019), and cognitive skills (P<0.001). Conclusion In general, it can be said that a 4-week training of fundamental skills with the TGfU approach can improve motor and cognitive development in ADHD children. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
