This is an integrative review which aims to identify and describe the motor performance of children from seven to ten years old according to the Movement Assessment Battery for Children scale - second edition (MABC-2). The databases we have considered were VHL, Scielo, PubMed, Scopus, Science Direct and Web of Science and the Portuguese and English descriptors applied were MABC-2, motor performance, motor dexterity and balance. As an inclusion criterion, we have considered cross-sectional studies which used MABC-2 being published in a period of seven to ten years from 2007 to 2018. The search resulted in 22 articles from 2010 onwards considering subject children aged five to fourteen years old. To assess the methodological quality of cross-sectional articles, an adapted Loney scale was used and all of them were classified as having good methodological quality. According to the description of motor performance, children with Developmental Coordination Disorder, Autism Spectrum Disorder and Noonan Syndrome were classified as having difficulties of movement, and premature born children and children with delayed neuropsychomotor development were considered to be at risk of having difficulties of movement. |
