The Study Demonstrated the Effect of Active Video Games on Motor Coordination in Children Over a 12-week Intervention
Conditions
Brief summary
The goal of the study was to understand the effects of active video games on motor coordination in children. The main questions it aims to answer are: The effect of positive video games on children's motor ability. Researchers will compare traditional physical activities to see if active video games are effective in improving motor coordination in children. Participants will: Play active video games twice a week for 12 weeks Data were collected during the first and twelfth weeks
Interventions
BEHAVIORALActive video games
The experiment was divided into two groups. One experimental group, one control group. The experimental group received an active video game intervention for 12 weeks, 40 minutes twice a week. The control group underwent 12 weeks of traditional physical activity, 40 minutes twice a week.
BEHAVIORALTraditional sports games
The experiment was divided into two groups. One experimental group, one control group. The experimental group received an active video game intervention for 12 weeks, 40 minutes twice a week. The control group underwent 12 weeks of traditional physical activity, 40 minutes twice a week.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| baseline | The first week of the experiment. | The subjects (control group and experimental group) will be pre-tested during the first week of the experiment. The motor coordination ability of the subject was obtained. Motor coordination was measured using the Motor Assessment Battery for Children - Second Edition (MABC-2). |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| post test1 | The 12th week of the experiment. | The subjects (control group and experimental group) will be tested after the 12th week of the experiment. The motor coordination ability of the subject was obtained. Motor coordination was measured using the Motor Assessment Battery for Children - Second Edition (MABC-2). |
