Abstract
The aim of this study is, through an integrative literature review, to verify the effects of interventions based on exergaming on executive functions and motor skills in children with ASD. This study is an integrative review of the literature structured in the Pubmed and Medline database with the descriptors verified in DeCs/Mesh: “autism spectrum disorder,” “Exergaming,” “Cognition,” “Motor skill” adjunct to the Boolean operator, “AND” or “OR.” The search included integrative reviews, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, randomized clinical trials, and clinical cases in English. Three studies were eligible to be included and analyzed qualitatively in this integrative review. The intervention with exergames for children with ASD produces positive results in increasing the time these children are exposed to physical activities due to the great motivation generated by the game. However, no significant effects were found on the development or gain of motor skills.
