relationship between segmental trunk control and Gross Motor Development in typically developing infants aged from 4 to 12 months a pilot study
BMC Pediatrics, 2019Co-Authors: Penelope B Butler, Honming Cheung, Sandra Laifong ShumAbstract:Trunk control is generally considered to be related to Gross Motor Development. However, this assumption has not been validated with clinical data. This pilot study was the first of its kind to examine the longitudinal Development of segmental trunk control and Gross Motor Development from 4 to 12 months of age in typically developing full-term infants. A convenience cohort of 20 healthy full-term infants (mean gestation = 39.0 weeks, SD 1.2; mean birthweight = 2975.0 g, SD 297.0; males = 10) was recruited. All study infants were tested and scored monthly by independent assessors using the Segmental Assessment of Trunk Control and the Alberta Infant Motor Scale from 4 to 12 months of age. A Developmental trend of segmental trunk control was found in the infants. Static vertical upright trunk control developed prior to active and reactive control. Statistically significant correlations were found between trunk control status and Gross Motor Development mainly in prone and sitting positions from 8 months of age onwards (all p < 0.004, Spearman’s r ranged from 0.644 to 0.798). This pilot study provides preliminary clinical evidence to support the inter-dependency between vertical upright trunk control and Gross Motor Development in young infants, particularly as upright functional skills are gained. This suggests that a dual focus on training upright trunk control alongside Gross Motor skills could be of benefit in the treatment of infants with movement disorders.

test of Gross Motor Development 3 tgmd 3 with the use of visual supports for children with autism spectrum disorder validity and reliability
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2017Co-Authors: Kelly Allen, B Bredero, T Van Damme, D A Ulrich, Johan SimonsAbstract:The validity and reliability of the Test of Gross Motor Development-3 (TGMD-3) were measured, taking into consideration the preference for visual learning of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The TGMD-3 was administered to 14 children with ASD (4–10 years) and 21 age-matched typically developing children under two conditions: TGMD-3 traditional protocol, and TGMD-3 visual support protocol. Excellent levels of internal consistency, test–retest, interrater and intrarater reliability were achieved for the TGMD-3 visual support protocol. TGMD-3 raw scores of children with ASD were significantly lower than typically developing peers, however, significantly improved using the TGMD-3 visual support protocol. This demonstrates that the TGMD-3 visual support protocol is a valid and reliable assessment of Gross Motor performance for children with ASD.

test of Gross Motor Development 2 for filipino children with intellectual disability validity and reliability
Journal of Sports Sciences, 2016Co-Authors: C M Capio, Kathlynne F Eguia, Johan SimonsAbstract:AbstractThis study aimed to examine aspects of validity and reliability of the Test of Gross Motor Development-2 (TGMD-2) in Filipino children with intellectual disability. Content and construct validity were verified, as well as inter-rater and intra-rater reliability. Two paediatric physiotherapists tested 81 children with intellectual disability (mean age = 9.29 ± 2.71 years) on locoMotor and object control skills. Analysis of covariance, confirmatory factor analysis and analysis of variance were used to test validity, while Cronbach’s alpha, intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC) and Bland–Altman plots were used to examine reliability. Age was a significant predictor of locoMotor and object control scores (P = 0.004). The data fit the hypothesised two-factor model with fit indices as follows: χ2 = 33.525, DF = 34, P = 0.491, χ2/DF = 0.986. As hypothesised, gender was a significant predictor for object control skills (P = 0.038). Participants’ mean scores were significantly below mastery (locoMotor...

Validity and reliability of the Spanish version of the test of Gross Motor Development–3
Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2017Co-Authors: Isaac Estevan, Ana Queralt, Octavio Alvarez, Isabel Castillo, Javier Molina-garcía, Lisa M BarnettAbstract:The Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD) is a process-oriented scale that provides qualitative information on children’s Motor competence. The aim of the current study was to analyze the psychometric properties by examining the internal consistency and construct validity of the Spanish version of the TGMD-3. A sample of 178 typically developing children (47.5% girls) between the ages 3 and 11 years participated in this study. Reliability and the within-network psychometric properties of TGMD-3 were examined by using internal consistency and confirmatory factor analysis. Reliability indexes were excellent (> 0.89). A two-factor structure model was hypothesized and an alternative unifactorial model was also tested. Adequate fit indexes in both a two-factor model [ball skills seven items and locoMotor skills six items (χ2 (64) = 139.200, p < .010, RMSEA = 0.073, SRMR = 0.050, NNFI = 0.964, CFI = 0.970)] and a one-factor model [(χ2 (65) = 157.666, p < .010, RMSEA = 0.084, SRMR = 0.055, NNFI = 0.956, CFI = 0...

interrater reliability assessment using the test of Gross Motor Development 2
Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport, 2014Co-Authors: Lisa M Barnett, Christine Minto, Natalie Lander, Louise L HardyAbstract:Abstract Objectives The aim was to examine interrater reliability of the object control subtest from the Test of Gross Motor Development-2 by live observation in a school field setting. Design : Reliability Study - cross sectional. Methods Raters were rated on their ability to agree on (1) the raw total for the six object control skills; (2) each skill performance and (3) the skill components. Agreement for the object control subtest and the individual skills was assessed by an intraclass correlation (ICC) and a kappa statistic assessed for skill component agreement. Results A total of 37 children (65% girls) aged 4–8 years ( M =6.2, SD= 0.8) were assessed in six skills by two raters; equating to 222 skill tests. Interrater reliability was excellent for the object control subset ( ICC =0.93), and for individual skills, highest for the dribble ( ICC =0.94) followed by strike ( ICC =0.85), overhand throw ( ICC =0.84), underhand roll ( ICC =0.82), kick ( ICC =0.80) and the catch ( ICC =0.71). The strike and the throw had more components with less agreement. Conclusions Even though the overall subtest score and individual skill agreement was good, some skill components had lower agreement, suggesting these may be more problematic to assess. This may mean some skill components need to be specified differently in order to improve component reliability.
