| Research Abstract |
Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), so called "Clumsiness", interferes with academic performance and participation in physical activities and development of psychosocial functions, such as self-esteem, cognition, or emotion through the Life. DCD is a common pediatric condition and its prevalence is estimated to be 6-10%, worldwide. There are, however, a few studies of DCD in Japan. In this study, we evaluated, in detail, "Clumsiness" in the large numbers of the cases with developmental disorders, developed the Japanese versions of two international questionnaires (DCDQ and MOQ-T) as the screening instruments, and established the methodology or the clinical applications of the biomechanical and the neuroimaging, such as ERP, NIRS, PET, and fMRI.
