Abstract

The Movement ABC (Henderson and Sugden 1992) is the most commonly reported norm-ranked assessment used to determine the presence of Developmental Co-ordination Disorder (DCD) in school-aged children. The assessment provides quantitative and qualitative data about a child’s performance of age-appropriate tasks within 3 subsections: Manual Dexterity, Ball Skills, and Static and Dynamic Balance. Performance is compared with established USA norms for children aged 4 to 12 years. The Movement ABC is a minimal task set designed to screen for motor impairment rather than provide a profile of a child’s motor performance. It takes approximately 30 minutes to administer and requires no special training.
