Investigating the motor aspect of drawing and writing problems in preschool children: Compilation of Motor-Cognitive Inventory
Preschool is a sensitive period for the development of motor and cognitive skills and the child must reach sufficient physical maturity and cognition to enter school. Given the importance of pre-school preparation and the prevalence of drawing and writing problems in primary school children. The purpose of this study is to develop a motor-cognitive inventory to help identify drawing and writing problems in preschool children.
In this study, 40 preschool children aged five to seven years volunteered of Mashhad. After completing the consent form, Bandar-Gestalt and MABC-2 tests were performed as criteria tests and motor-cognitive inventory designed by researchers, which included 42 items. After three weeks, these tests were repeated and the data were analyzed by Kendall correlation coefficient at the significant level of P≤0.05.
The motor-cognitive inventory showed the ability to evaluate the components before writing at a significant level (P≤0.05). Also, there was a significant relationship between the results of the evaluation of the locomotor components of the motor-cognitive inventory with the MABC-2 criterion test and the results of the evaluation of the performance of the cognitive components of the motor-cognitive inventory with the Bandar-Gestalt criterion test (P≤0.05).
According to the findings of the study and the level of significance between motor-cognitive inventory and tests of criteria and components, it seems that to identify drawing and writing problems in preschool children can be used from the motor -Cognitive Inventory.
