Findings reveal persistent sensory and motor challenges in children and adolescents with DCD, suggesting early intervention is crucial.

Sensory-processing difficulties appear to be more closely related to functional performance than to structured motor proficiency. These findings support the importance of early comprehensive, developmental assessment and intervention approaches addressing both sensory and functional challenges in children and adolescents with DCD.
