Abstract

Autism Spectrum Disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impairment in social interaction and communication, accompanied by s tereotyped and repetitive behavior. The purpose of the present s tudy was to inves tigate the effect of a perceptual-motor Exercise period on executive functions (neurocognitive functions of Attention) of children with autism disorder in the age group of 7-12 years. Materials and Methods: The method of conducting the present s tudy was semi-experimental. Among children with autism disorder referring to autis tic children’ s care centers in Isfahan, 30 patients were selected using screening tes ts and after measuring neuro-cognitive functions of Attention by neuropsychological Conner’ s ques tionnaire as a pretes t, randomly divided into two experimental (n = 15) and control (n = 15) groups. In the experimental group, perceptualmotor Exercises were performed for 12 weeks and 3 sessions weekly. Finally, a pos t-tes t was performed for all of the subjects. Results: The results have shown that perceptual-motor Exercise in the experimental group was an effective measure to improve the neurocognitive functions of the Attention of children with autism disorder. Besides, neuro-cognitive functions of Attention were significantly better in the experimental group compared to the control group. Conclusion: Perceptual-motor Exercises with music may provide appropriate intervention for improving the neurocognitive functions of the Attention of children with autism disorder.
