简要总结
This study will focus on (1) developing the Chinese characteristic-based VMI-focused program, namely visual-perception motor-coordination integration program (CCVPMCI) involving the most Chinese-handwriting-related skills training and (2) investigating the effectiveness of the CCVPMCI program on handwriting performance in children with handwriting difficulties in Taiwan.

研究组 & 干预措施
visual-perception motor-coordination integration program
Visual-perception motor-coordination integration program (CCVPMCI) is a Chinese characteristic-based VMI-focused program involving the most Chinese-handwriting-related skills training. CCVPMCI mainly emphasizes the training role of visual-motor integration. The idea of CCVPMCI program will involve (1) visual motor integration training affiliated with visual perception and motor coordination as warm-up exercise, (2) more focus on visual spatial perception in connect with unique visual structure of Chinese characters, (3) the trace or component elements of Chinese characters as the interesting practice material and (4) appropriate challenge for learning.
干预措施: visual-perception motor-coordination integration program (Other)

主要结局
The change from baseline Chinese Legibility Scale (CLS) at one month and six months
时间窗: baseline, one month, six months
Chinese Legibility Scale is the self-develop assessment tool to investigate a child's handwriting legibility objectively. Children will be asked to copied 10 Chinese characters on paper within 2\*2cm squares to complete the copying paper. Meanwhile, the performance time will be recorded when the child start writing the firs stoke until finish the last stroke of the last character. These Chinese characters are selected from three versions of current mandarin textbooks according to each grade and those with high-frequency and around the average stroke counts will be chosen. Then, characters can be classified into five types of structures based on the visual similarity of character, including top-down (vertical), left-right (horizontal), P-shaped, L-shaped and enclosed. Ultimately, there are 20 characters in total for each grade with five types evenly. The scale will be scored by a therapist blind to the experiment to decide children's writing legibility.
The change from baseline Chinese Handwriting Evaluation Form (CHEF) at one month and six months
时间窗: baseline, one month, six months
The CHEF is an observational assessment designed to objectively measure the handwriting performance of school-aged children. It is composed of 25 items and divided into five main dimensions, including construction, accuracy, direction of the characters, writing speed and pencil grip. Items are descriptions of common writing problems by scored on 5-point Likert scale according to the frequency of the problem.
次要结局
- The change from baseline Developmental Test of Visual Perception - Third Edition (DTVP-3) at one month and six months(baseline, one month, six months)
- The change from baseline Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration at one month and six months(baseline, one month, six months)
- Pediatric Motivation Questionnaire (PMQ)(through study completion, an average of one month)
