Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of the study is to examine the effect of VR application on motor, cognitive and sensory-perceptual skills, and activity and participation levels in children with DCD.
The hypotheses on which the study proposal is based are as follows:
-
H0: VR application has no effect on motor skills in children with DCD. H1: VR application has an effect on motor skills in children with DCD.
-
H0: VR application has no effect on cognitive skills in children with DCD. H1: VR application has an effect on cognitive skills in children with DCD.
-
H0: VR application has no effect on sensory-perception skills in children with DCD.
H1: VR application has an effect on sensory-perception skills in children with DCD.
-
H0: VR application has no effect on the functional independence levels in daily living activities in children with DCD.
H1: VR application has an effect on the functional independence levels in daily living activities in children with DCD.
-
H0: VR application has no effect on participation levels in children with DCD. H1: VR application has an effect on participation levels in children with DCD.
Detailed Description
Within the scope of our aims; * To determine the gross motor skill levels of children with DCD and to obtain the effect of VR application on gross motor skill levels. * To determine the executive function skill levels of children with DCD and to obtain the effect of VR application on executive function skill levels. * To determine the sensory-perception skill levels of children with DCD and to obtain the effect of VR application on sensory-perception skill levels. * To determine the functional independence of children with DCD in daily life and to obtain the effect of VR application on their functional independence levels. * It is aimed to determine the participation levels of children with DCD and to obtain the effect of VR application on their participation levels.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Test of Gross Motor Development-2
Time Frame: It will be applied 8 weeks after the first evaluations are made.
Assessment of gross and fine motor skills
Sensory İntegration and praxis test
Time Frame: It will be applied 8 weeks after the first evaluations are made.
It is a standardized test developed by Ayres that evaluates in detail sensory perception and sensory perception-related skills in children between the ages of 4 and 8 years and 11 months. SIPT consists of a total of 17 subtests.
Motor-Free Visual Perception Test-3
Time Frame: It will be applied 8 weeks after the first evaluations are made.
Assessment of visual perception
Secondary Outcomes
- Functional Independence Measure for Children (WeeFIM)(It will be applied 8 weeks after the first evaluations are made.)
- CHILDHOOD EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONING INVENTORY (CHEXI) FOR PARENTS AND TEACHERS(It will be applied 8 weeks after the first evaluations are made.)
- Participation and Environment Measure for Children and Youth (PEM-CY)(It will be applied 8 weeks after the first evaluations are made.)
