Implication

Quasi-experimental study demonstrates improved motor proficiency from exergame training in youth with developmental coordination disorder, indicating digital play supports motor skill acquisition.

Key Points

  • Exergame training significantly enhances motor proficiency across balance, manual dexterity, and aiming skills among youth diagnosed with developmental coordination disorder.
  • Following 24 sessions of active console gaming, motor proficiency improved markedly in both age cohorts with developmental coordination disorder at a significance level of P≤0.05.
  • Quasi-experimental testing with the MABC-2 test confirmed motor gains, yet interventions failed to fully eliminate performance disparities compared to typically developing peers.
