Marinšek, Miha; Bedenik, Klemen; Kovac, Marjeta – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2023
Motor competence as an indicator of gross motor development is characterized by changes in movement patterns and outcomes. The Test of Gross Motor Development-3 consists of six locomotor and seven ball tasks used to assess the quality of fundamental motor skills in children. The purpose of this study is twofold--to produce a Slovenian translation…

Arman, Marziyeh; Barnett, Lisa M.; Bowe, Steven J.; Bahram, Abbas; Kazemnejad, Anoshirvan – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2021
The aim of this study was to determine the validity and reliability of the Perceived Movement Skill Competence scales for Iranian children. In particular, the scales aligned with the second and third versions of the Test of Gross Motor Development and the active play skills. The total sample was 314 children aged 4-8 years (M[subscript age] = 6.1…

Valentini, Nadia Cristina; Nobre, Glauber Carvalho; Zanella, Larissa Wagner; Pereira, Keila G.; Albuquerque, Maicon Rodrigues; Rudisill, Mary Elizabeth – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2021
Background: The Test of Gross Motor Development--3 (TGMD-3) is used to assess locomotor (LOCS) and ball (BS) skills in children. This test provides relevant information for evaluating learning and determining teaching efficacy. However, conducting and coding the test is time consuming. A screening form may improve its usage in specific settings…

Nathan Gavigan; Sarahjane Belton; Una Britton; Shane Dalton; Johann Issartel – European Physical Education Review, 2024
Although there is a plethora of tools available to assess children's movement competence (MC), the literature suggests that many have significant limitations (e.g. not being practical for use in many 'real-world' settings). The FMS[superscript 2] assessment tool has recently been developed as a targeted solution to many of the existing barriers…

Maïano, Christophe; Morin, Alexandre J. S.; April, Johanne; Webster, E. Kipling; Hue, Olivier; Dugas, Claude; Ulrich, Dale – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2022
The objective was to assess the psychometric properties of a French-Canadian version of the third edition of the Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD-3). Participants were 127 French-speaking Canadian children. Results supported the validity-reliability of a bifactor exploratory structural equation modeling representation of the TGMD-3.…

Khodaverdi, Zeinab; Bahram, Abbas; Khalaji, Hassan; Kazemnejad, Anoshirvan; Ghadiri, Farhad; O'Brien, Wesley – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2021
This paper aimed to investigate different dimensions of motor competence (MC) by using four commonly administered MC assessment tools (Test of Gross Motor Development-3, Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency-2 Short Form, Körperkoordinationtest Für Kinder, and Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2) in a sample of 184 girls…

Pratt, Nicole A.; Duncan, Michael J.; Morris, Martyn G.; Oxford, Samuel W. – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2021
There is a dearth of research in aquatic motor competency, a key requirement for primary physical education in order to become physically literate. This study proposes a new assessment protocol for aquatic motor competence and sets out to examine the validity of the Aquatic Movement Protocol (AMP) in children between 7 and 9 years of age. Testing…

Salami, Sedigheh; Bandeira, Paulo Felipe Ribeiro; Gomes, Cristiano Mauro Assis; Dehkordi, Parvaneh Shamsipour – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2022
Aim: To examine the latent structure of the "Test of Gross Motor Development--Third Edition" (TGMD-3) with a bifactor modeling approach. In addition, the study examines the dimensionality and model-based reliability of general and specific contributions of the test's subscales and measurement invariance of the TGMD-3. Methods: A…

Copetti, Fernando; Valentini, Nadia C.; Deslandes, Andréa C.; Webster, E. Kipling – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2022
Background: Motor skill assessment is time-consuming and some difficulties are inherent in the administration of motor tests, especially in children with neurodevelopment disorders. Purpose: This study aimed to develop and investigate the face, content, and criterion validity of a Motor Skills Sequential Pictures (MSSP) for the Test of Gross Motor…
