Brief summary
This study compares motor development in three groups of infants (controls, DCD, DCD+ASD) before the age of 2 years using retrospective video analysis of infants in home video contexts.
Interventions
The M-ABC-2 is a motor performance test for children aged 3 trough 16 years of age. We will use Dutch-Flemish norms.
The DCD-Q is a brief parent questionnaire designed to screen for the presence of DCD in children aged 5 trough 15 years of age. We will use Dutch norms.
The SRS-2 is a parent questionnaire designed to identify social impairments associated with ASD in children 4 trough 18 years of age. We will used Dutch norms.
Retrospective video analysis will be used to explore motor development in children with DCD, DCD+ASD and controls.
