Stephanie A. Palmer; Katherine Q. Scott-Andrews; Nancy G. Ramirez; Alec McKheen; Leah E. Robinson – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2025
Indoor and outdoor home space may support physical activity (PA) and enhance motor skills (MS). However, there is limited knowledge about how indoor and outdoor home space affect PA and MS parent-child dyads. This cross-sectional study examined whether indoor and outdoor home spaces affect PA and MS in children and their parents. MS was measured…

Carballo-Fazanes, Aida; Rey, Ezequiel; Valentini, Nadia C.; Varela-Casal, Cristina; Abelairas-Gómez, Cristian – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2023
We aimed to calculate interrater reliability of the Test of Gross Motor Development--Third Edition (TGMD-3) after raters reached a consensus regarding measurement criteria. Three raters measured the fundamental movement skills of 25 children on the TGMD-3 at two different times: (a) once when simply following the measurement criteria in the TGMD-3…

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…

Hyokju Maeng; Deborah R. Shapiro; Elizabeth Kipling Webster; Hyunjin Kwon – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2023
Rater training is necessary to accurately evaluate fundamental motor skills among children with developmental disabilities (DD). The purpose of this pilot study was to examine the impact of an online rater training program for novice raters on scoring accuracy of the run and two-hand strike skills on the Test of Gross Motor Development-Third…

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…

Lee, Jihyun; Chang, Seung Ho; Jolin, Jerred – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2021
The motor and social skill difficulties experienced by many children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can create challenges when participating in age appropriate physical activity contexts. Although behavioral interventions can increase the general social communicative skills of children with ASD, often the skills targeted are not relevant to…

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…
