Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
With motor circuit intervention, it is assumed that children will improve motor, behavioral, and sensory aspects measured by the Motor Assessment Battery for Children - MABC-2; Social Responsiveness Scale - SRS-2; Sensory Profile 2 tests.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Observe whether there will be a decrease in the incidence or severity of motor, behavioral, and sensory aspects;Assess motor skills, behavior, and sensory processing performance using the MABC-2, SRS-2, and Sensory Profile 2. The outcome will be verified by comparing the scores obtained in the pre- and post-intervention assessments, considering a minimum variation of 5% in the scores as indicative of improvement in motor, behavioral, and sensory aspects
