Assessing motor problems in autistic children
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study aims to better understand how motor skills (movement and coordination) work in children with autism spectrum disorder. It uses an assessment approach to help researchers understand what motor difficulties look like, which may improve future evaluations and support.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You (the child) are between 6 and 11 years old
- The child can understand and use French
- The family has French social security coverage (or someone can enroll them)
- Both parents (or legal guardian) read, understand, and sign consent
- The child has an autism spectrum disorder diagnosis using DSM-5

This study looks at how people with autism (and some without autism) react during a routine blood test. Researchers will watch and measure behavior and body responses to better understand distress and comfort during needle procedures.
This study looks at motor skills, balance, and social adaptation in children with autism. It aims to understand how these areas are connected and could help improve therapies.
This study looks at how motor skills (like catching, jumping) and sensory processing (how the brain handles sights, sounds, touch) are related in children with and without certain developmental differences. The goal is to better understand these connections to help support children's development.
This study looks at how motor challenges relate to balance in children with autism. It may help understand how to better support movement and coordination.
This study looks at how children with autism understand social cues compared to other children. It may help improve social skills screening.
This trial tests whether a type of brain stimulation called rTMS can improve motor skills (like coordination and movement) in autistic adults. If you have autism and notice challenges with motor function, this study may help.
