Abstract

This current study was aimed to summarize the domestic research on motor assessments for children with developmental disorder and examine how these assessment tools were used in previous research. A total of 54 articles published from January 2000 to January 2020 were investigated based on the criteria of analysis. We found that the most literature investigated the effect of intervention using motor assessment tools besides correlation research or cross-sectional study. Secondly, children with cerebral palsy participated in the study the most and then there were intellectual disorder, autism spectrum disorder, down syndrome, developmental coordination disorder, developmental delay, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in order of number. Thirdly, the motor assessment tools adopted in previous studies were divided into two domains : motor development and physical fitness. Among them, the most frequently used were Gross Motor Function Measurement, Test of Gross Motor Development-second Edition, Pediatric Balance Scale and others. In the future, research on verification of validity and reliability of motor assessment tools and application of ICT will be needed. These future research will be required to quantify a movement of children with developmental disorder and classify these movements.
