简要总结
This study aims to compare the effects of single-task and dual-task conditions on motor performance and postural control in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and typically developing children. Participants' performance under single-task and dual-task conditions involving cognitive load will be evaluated to examine how cognitive demands affect physical task performance in both groups.

研究组 & 干预措施
Autism Spectrum Disorder
The diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder was made by child and adolescent psychiatrists in accordance with the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - Fifth Edition (DSM-5) diagnostic criteria.
干预措施: Single- and Dual-Task Condition Assessment (Other)
Typically developing child

干预措施: Single- and Dual-Task Condition Assessment (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Postural control performance
时间窗: Day 3
Postural control will be assessed using the Nintendo Wii Balance Board under both single-task and dual-task conditions. The mean value of center of pressure sway in the medio-lateral and anterior-posterior directions will be calculated during a 30-second quiet standing task with eyes open. Values will be expressed in millimeters (mm).
次要结局
- Walking Performance(Day 3)
- Motor Performance(Day 3)
- Childhood Autism Rating Scale(Day 1)
