Abstract
Zusammenfassung. Bewegung spielt im Kindesalter eine herausragende Rolle, damit sich Kinder altersentsprechend entwickeln können. Die Kernsymptome bestehen in Defiziten in den Bereichen der Grob- und Feinmotorik, die das Ausführen alltäglicher Handlungen erschweren und sich zudem negativ auf die Schulleistungen der Betroffenen auswirken. Die Ursache der Störung konnte bisher nicht geklärt werden. Viele Studien deuten darauf hin, dass sich die Defizite nicht auf das Kindesalter beschränken, sondern dass viele Personen auch im Erwachsenenalter noch Symptome aufweisen. In der Regel treten die motorischen Beeinträchtigungen nicht isoliert auf, sondern werden von einer Vielzahl psychosozialer Probleme begleitet. Dazu zählen vor allem ein verringertes Selbstwertgefühl sowie die soziale Isolation. Der diagnostische Prozess sollte umfassend sein um zu gewährleisten, dass betroffene Kinder angemessen behandelt werden, um ihren Entwicklungsverlauf positiv zu beeinflussen.
Abstract. During infancy, motor activity plays a decisive role so that children are able to develop themselves appropriate to their age. The characteristic features of developmental coordination disorder are deficits in gross and fine motor skills which make the accomplishment of daily activities more difficult. Furthermore, these deficits have a negative effect on performance at school. The cause of the disorder has not yet been clarified. There is evidence that the symptoms are not restricted to infancy but also appear in adulthood. Normally, impairments in movement are accompanied by a variety of psychosocial problems, including low self-worth as well as social isolation. A comprehensive diagnostic investigation should ensure that children with a developmental coordination disorder are treated adequately so that they can achieve a positive future development.
