Is Just Moving Enough for Girls? The Moderation Role of Gross Motor Development Level in the Association Between Physical Activity and Cognition

Jacqueline Páez-Herrera, Juan Hurtado-Almonacid, Julio B. Mello, Catalina Sobarzo, Paula Plaza-Arancibia, Juliana Kain-Berkovic, Barbara Leyton, Johana Soto-Sánchez, Verónica Leiva–Guerrero, and Albert Batalla–Flores

the device, days of use, times when it could not be used, and how to remove it. For the application of the battery of motor development tests, the time of the physical education class was used in two sessions, where the locomotion tests were developed and then the manipulation tests. This was held in

Long-Term Effects of a Movement Intervention Program for Children With Probable Developmental Coordination Disorder

Ilana Santos de Oliveira, Bárbara Coiro Spessato, Dayana da Silva Oliveira, Romulo José César Lins, and Silvia Wanick Sarinho

worked in these classes was collective sports (soccer, handball, basketball, and volleyball). Moreover, the IG took part in a TOI, with content focused on gross motor skills including locomotion, OC, and B skills, such as: running, galloping, jumping over obstacles, horizontal jumping, side slide, bounce

The Ableist Underpinning of Normative Motor Assessments in Adapted Physical Education

Martin Giese, Justin A. Haegele, and Anthony J. Maher

be due to a fear of inhibition of movement. In addition, the biomechanically necessary cross coordination of arms and legs (Performance Criteria No. 1) often must be relearned because the outstretched hands can then no longer be used to secure the locomotion. This, in turn, increases the fear of

A Modified Delphi Research Study on Fundamental Movement Skill Complexity for Teaching and Learning Physical Literacy

Homa Rafiei Milajerdi, Anna Thacker, Mahboubeh Ghayour Najafabadi, Christoph Clephas, and Larry Katz

include skills involving locomotion, object control, and stability ( Gallahue et al., 2012 ). There are many FMS, but only 16 were examined in this study: catch, dribble, gallop, hop, kick, leap, single-overhead throw, hollow-body roll, run, side gallop, skip, standing jump, two-hand overhead throw

A Physical Education Program Based Upon an Obstacle Course Positively Affects Motor Competence in 6- to 7-Year-Old Children: A Pilot Study

Elly van Hyfte, Sien Vercruysse, Griet Warlop, and Matthieu Lenoir

to manage everyday tasks ( Bardid, 2016 ; Henderson, 1992 ; Robinson et al., 2015 ). Between 3 and 8 years of age, a child’s level of MC is reflected by their proficiency in the domains of locomotion, stability, and object control ( Burton & Miller, 1998 ; Stodden et al., 2008 ). At this age
