REYES-OYOLA, Felipe Augusto; PALOMINO, Constanza e MEZA-SALCEDO, Guillermo. Analysis of psychomotor profile among Colombian children aged 4 to 9 years. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2021, vol.19, n.2, pp.213-229. Epub 22-Set-2021. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/rlcsnj.19.2.4193.
Psychomotor disturbances and disorders during childhood can have an impact on the development of complex motor skills and influence a child’s learning in school. The goal of the present study was to analyze the psychomotor profile of a child population in schools in Colombia. A descriptive and cross-sectional design was used and the Da Fonseca psychomotor battery was applied to 131 students (56.5% boys; 43.5% girls) aged 4-9 years studying in kindergarten and primary education. The results show that 76.3% have a normal pyschoomotor profile, but Dyspraxia was dominant in Fine Praxia. Girls scored higher than boys in most of the factors. In conclusion, the majority of children present a Eupraxic profile, with improved results among girls. These results can contribute to the implementation of individualized school programs that could prevent possible disturbances.
