FERREIRA, Lúcio F.; SOUZA, Cleverton J. F. de e FREUDENHEIM, Andrea M.. Effectiveness of movement ABC checklist. Rev. Port. Cien. Desp. [online]. 2008, vol.8, n.3, pp.347-354. ISSN 1645-0523.
This study´s aim was to investigate the effectiveness of the Movement ABC checklist in the Manaus context (Amazonas/Brazil) and comparing the ability of class teachers (CT) and physical education teachers (PET) to select possible DCD children using the checklist (CL). The sample was composed by 30 8-year old children and l6 teachers (8 CT and 8 PET). The Movement ABC Test was used. Results showed very low correlation between the checklist and motor battery (LCPSA rs=,09;p=,6l and LCPEF rs=-.12,p=,49. Furthermore, as three groups were defined according to the degree of motor disorder sensitivity, specificity and predictable positive values remained below the expected results. Results evidentiated that, in the Manaus context, the checklist was not an efficient tool to sort out 8-year old schoolchildren affected by DCD and that both, CT and PET teachers were not effective at identifying children affected by this disorder.
