Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to find a slower reaction time in individuals with Down Syndrome in relation to individuals in the control group, verified using the Timing Coincident and MoveHero computer software, based on the comparison of time in milliseconds.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary outcomes are not expected.
