Reliability and Validity of a Parent Questionnaire on Childhood Motor Skills
Abstract
Objective. As the consequences of clumsiness in childrenbecome better understood, the need for valid measurement tools is apparent. Parent report has thepotential for providing historical knowledge of the child’s motor skills, as well as perceptions of their children’s motor difficulties. Theobjective was to develop a parent questionnaire to identifymotor difficulties in children. Method. A sample of 306 children participated in the development of a 17-item parent questionnaire, called the Developmental Coordination Disorder Questionnaire (DCDQ). Internal consistency, concurrent and construct validity were examined. Results. The DCDQ proved capable of distinguishing children who had motor problems (as measured by standardized tests) from children without motor problems. Correlations with standardized tests were significant. Two other studies confirmed the construct validity of the DCDQ. Factor analysis revealed four distinct factors, useful in defining the nature of the difficulties. Conclusion. The DCDQ is a succinct and useful measure for use by occupational therapists.

“The academic, social, and emotional impact of this chronic condition affects the occupational performance of school age children, resulting in frequent referrals to occupational therapy (Cantell, Smyth, & Ahonen, 1994; Missiuna, 1996; Schoemaker & Kalverboer, 1994).”

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.
