Brief Summary: Objective To compare the effectiveness of EEG biofeedback mental attention-neuromuscular training AT-NMT neuromuscular training NMT alone EEG biofeedback mental attention training AT alone and no intervention for improving reactive balance performance among children with developmental coordination disorder DCD

Design A single-blinded randomized controlled clinical trial Sample 172 children with DCD Interventions AT-NMT NMT AT or no intervention for 12 weeks Major outcomes Outcomes will be evaluated at baseline post-intervention and 3-month follow-up A motor control test MCT will give a composite latency score prefrontal cortex EEG recordings during MCT will measure the mental attention level and surface electromyography recordings during MCT will indicate the lower limb muscle onset latency
Detailed Description: Hypothesis The Investigators hypothesize that the reactive balance performance in children with DCD can be best improved by treating both their mental attention and neuromuscular deficits

Objective To compare the effectiveness of AT-NMT NMT alone AT alone and no intervention for improving reactive balance performance among children with DCD

Design A single-blinded randomized controlled clinical trial Sample 172 children with DCD Interventions AT-NMT NMT AT or no intervention for 12 weeks Major outcomes Outcomes will be evaluated at baseline post-intervention and 3-month follow-up A motor control test MCT will give a composite latency score prefrontal cortex EEG recordings during MCT will measure the mental attention level and surface electromyography recordings during MCT will indicate the lower limb muscle onset latency

Anticipated results and clinical significance Children with DCD who receive AT-NMT will have the best reactive balance performance outcomes If the results are positive this novel training regime can be readily adopted in clinical practice AT-NMT will improve overall well-being in these children and have positive socio-economic implications such as shorter rehabilitation periods and reduced healthcare costs
