Summary
Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD)is a condition marked by poor motor coordination and clumsiness. A recent review done by Tal-Saban and Kirby (2018) reports that between 30 and 70% of children diagnosed with DCD continue to have difficulties with daily functioning that persist into adulthood. An analysis of a longitudinal study and a recent review has shown that quality of life, participation in activities, and life satisfaction of adults and adolescents with DCD is lower than individuals without the disorder (Tal-Saban, Ornoy, & Parush, 2014;Tal-Saban & Kirby, 2018).
