MOTOR PROFICIENCY in RELATION to COGNITIVE FUNCTIONS and SEVERITY in CHILDREN with AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDERS

Completed

• Conditions: Autism Spectrum Disorder

• Registration Number: NCT06889233
• Lead Sponsor: Cairo University

Brief Summary

To investigate the relationship between cognitive function, the severity of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and the development of fine and gross motor skills in children with ASD

Detailed Description

A sample of 64 children with autism aged from 5 to 12 years recruited from centres and schools of special needs for intellectual and developmental disabilities to measure cognitive function using the Raven's Progressive Matrices and measure the severity of autism using the Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS). These assessments will then be compared with the children's fine and gross motor abilities
