Study of developmental coordination disorder in children and adults
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study is looking at people with developmental coordination disorder (dyspraxia) using specific movement and coordination assessments. It may help researchers better understand the condition and how to measure it for future treatments or support.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can join if you are any sex and between ages 9–11 or 18–40
- You must be able to take part through a healthcare organization (for example, your care team or clinic)
- If you are an adult, you can sign consent yourself; if you are a child, your legal guardian provides consent and the child agrees too
- You likely need a diagnosis of dyspraxia (developmental coordination disorder) confirmed by the study team
- Your coordination test score must be below the 15th percentile on the MABC-2 (if you already have this test, bring the result)

This trial looks at motor development in children aged 4-12 with ADHD compared to typically developing children. It aims to understand movement challenges and provide support strategies.
This study looks at how quickly children with certain developmental disorders react and move. It may help parents understand how their child's motor skills and reaction time connect.
This study tests if a special type of sensory stimulation can improve movement and coordination in children aged 12 to 16 with developmental coordination disorder. The goal is to help with daily motor skills.
This study tests a motor intervention for children ages 9 to 11 with developmental coordination disorder, to see if it helps improve movement and coordination.
This study tests whether task-oriented exercises can improve coordination and daily skills in children aged 4 to 12 with developmental coordination disorder (a condition that makes motor tasks like writing or catching harder). The goal is to help them move more easily and feel more confident in everyday activities.
This study compares how children with and without Developmental Coordination Disorder (a condition affecting motor skills) move their bodies during balance tasks. Researchers will use special tests and motion sensors to see different movement patterns, which could help design better therapy for kids with balance or coordination challenges.
