Content reliability was established through item-item analysis with 50 samples. Test-retest reliability of DCD diagnostic tool was examined in 3 week interval with 30 samples. Interrater reliability of DCD diagnostic assessment tool was examined with 30 samples. Results: DCD diagnostic assessment tool has 5 subtest with 25 items. There was positive correlation between each items and subtest of DCD diagnostic assessment tool. Test-retest reliability and interrater reliability of DCD diagnostic assessment tool was adequate. Conclusion: Diagnostic assessment tool for Developmental coordination assessment tool has good content reliability, interrater and test-retest reliability. Further study can be conducted with large sample size to strength psychomotor abilities of DCD diagnostic assessment tool.
