Abstract

Abstract: Developmental coordination disorder (DCD) is a common and well-recognized neurodevelopmental disorder affecting approximately 5 in every 100 individuals worldwide. It has long been included in standard national and international classifications of disorders (especially the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders ). Children and adults with DCD may come to medical or paramedical attention because of poor motor skills, poor motor coordination, and/or impaired procedural learning affecting activities of daily living. Studies show DCD persistence of 30–70% in adulthood for individuals who were diagnosed with DCD as children, with direct consequences in the academic realm and even beyond. In particular, individuals with DCD are at increased risk of impaired handwriting skills. Medium-term and long-term prognosis depends on the timing of the diagnosis, (possible) comorbid disorders (and their diagnosis), the variability of signs and symptoms (number and intensity), and the nature and frequency of the interventions individuals receive. We therefore chose to investigate the signs and symptoms, diagnosis, and rehabilitation of both DCD and developmental dysgraphia, which continues to receive far too little attention in its own right from researchers and clinicians. Keywords: developmental coordination disorder, developmental dysgraphia, clinical expressions, diagnosis, therapy, assessment tools

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Around half of those with developmental coordination disorder also exhibit impaired writing abilities.

    “around half of those with DCD also exhibit impaired writing abilities (33).”

    From Disorder of written expression and dysgraphia: definition, diagnosis, and management (2020) · cites this paper as [33]

    The “Dysgraphia in DCD” section says about half of children with DCD have difficulty learning to write, and the General conclusion says 1 in 2 children with DCD exhibit dysgraphia. The cited paper supports the proportion for children, but the claim’s unqualified “those with DCD” extends it to adults as well. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
