| Research Abstract |
Coordination disorders have frequently been described in pervasive developmental disorders (PDD). Intervention of visual cue was known to be effective to them in the clinical setting. It was important to put strength of vision into practice to improve the coordination disorders. The aim of the investigation was to 1) compare the scores of PDD children in the degrees of severity and/or developmental age by using visual cue with those of the healthy children at the same age, and 2) to provide therapists with the program on improving coordination disorders for PDD children using Symbol-Builtin PDA.
