Hi, I am planning a doctoral study using a novel immersive virtual reality playground for children with DCD and TD children, ages 7-10. I was planning on using referred children with DCD but was considering using the DCDQ'07 with the parents of both groups. I am also planning to administer the M-ABC2 for children who have not undergone this evaluation. We will be collecting kinematic data as well as task success, time for task performance and perceived motor competence. Our independent variables include level of immersion, level of output display gain, and setting (a real trampoline in the virtual environment (VE), a virtual trampoline in the VE, and a real trampoline in a real setting.
1.Can you share the full text of this article with me? 2. Would you consider a different tool for this purpose?
Thanks!

Good day Sarina. Please find attached the article as requested. With regard to your question, is it possible to test your own sample instead of using a referred sample? The reason for this is that the referred children's parents know they have been identified with DCD and therefor might influence their decision on the DCDQ'07. Also, if you already have referred children and you are planning on testing more children by yourself using the MABC-2 it can have an influence on your results since different examiners may influence the testing procedure. If it was me and it is possible I will get a sample, test the children with the MABC-2 put them into a DCD and non-DCD group and send the DCDQ'07 to those participants. I hope this information is helpful, feel free to ask further questions. Good luck with you PhD. Kind regards Monique
