Abstract

Background and purpose: DOWN SYNDROME children not only have delayed motor development but also have many difficulties for acquiring motor skills, particularly in upper extremities. Hence, the aim of study was to investigate the effects of eye- hand coordination activities on HAND SKILLS in educable children with DOWN SYNDROME.Materials and methods: Fifteen children with DOWN SYNDROME (7-10 years) participated in this interventional study through convenience sampling. After familiarization with the test method, they were assessed by PURDUE PEGBOARD TEST. Then, they attended in an eye-hand coordination program for 8 weeks (three times a week; forty-minutes each session). Finally, they were reassessed by PURDUE PEGBOARD TEST. Data were analyzed using Mc-Nemar and Wilcoxon tests.Results: There were significant differences in the mean scores of movement rate of dominant and non-dominant hands, eye-hand coordination of both hands and their HAND SKILLS before and after interventions (P<0.001). However, no significant differences were found either in the two genders or in the right- and left-handed children (P>0.05).Conclusion: According to the results of this study, EYE-HAND COORDINATION ACTIVITIES had significant effects on the HAND SKILLS of children with DOWN SYNDROME. However, gender and hand dominancy didn’t have any effects on hand skill improvement.
