Brief summary

To investigate the relationship between cognitive function, the severity of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and the development of fine and gross motor skills in children with ASD

Detailed description

A sample of 64 children with autism aged from 5 to 12 years recruited from centres and schools of special needs for intellectual and developmental disabilities to measure cognitive function using the Raven's Progressive Matrices and measure the severity of autism using the Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS). These assessments will then be compared with the children's fine and gross motor abilities

Interventions

BEHAVIORALmeasuring cognitive functions, severity of autism , gross and fine motor skills

measuring cognitive functions by RAVEN measuring severity by CARS measuring fine and gross motor functions by BOT2

Healthy volunteers

Inclusion criteria

1. Children had been diagnosed with ASD. 2. Their chronological age ranged from 5 years to 12 years. 3. Intelligence quotient (IQ) ranged from 55 to 85.

Exclusion criteria

Any child with the following criteria would be directly excluded from the evaluation for the consistency of the sample and statistically obtained results: 1. The child with ASD and other motor disabilities. 2. Visual or hearing impairment.
