comparsion of spark and fundamental motor training

Conditions: Autism Spectrum Disorder

Summary: it was a randomized clinical trial.data will be collected from life care rehabilitation and special child facility.the study was completed within 6 months after approval of synopsis.the calculated sample size, through who sample size calculator, using bruininks- oseretsky test's mean and standard deviation (mean dynamic balance) as outcome measure was 20 in each group. after adding 10% dropout the sample size will be 20+4=24 in each group; hence, overall sample size n= 20. age range 5-12 years. children with diagnosed autism and age ranges between 5-12 will be included in the study.convenient sampling technique was used to collect the data.there was two groups.in group a spark therapy will be provided and in group 2 fundamental motor skill training will be provided. to assess the social skills gilliam autism rating scale-second edition (gars-2) and for motor skills bruininkse oseretsky test of motor proficiency (botmp) was used.

autism spectrum disorder affects the social communication and fundamental motor skills of children. the current study will evaluate the effects of sports play and active recreation for kids (spark) versus fundamental motor skill training on social and motor skills in children with autism spectrum disorder. it was a randomized clinical trial.data will be collected from life care rehabilitation and special child facility.the study was completed within 6 months after approval of synopsis.the calculated sample size, through who sample size calculator, using bruininks- oseretsky test's mean and standard deviation (mean dynamic balance) as outcome measure was 20 in each group. after adding 10% dropout the sample size will be 20+4=24 in each group; hence, overall sample size n= 20. age range 5-12 years. children with diagnosed autism and age ranges between 5-12 will be included in the study.convenient sampling technique was used to collect the data.there was two groups.in group a spark therapy will be provided and in group 2 fundamental motor skill training will be provided. to assess the social skills gilliam autism rating scale-second edition (gars-2) and for motor skills bruininkse oseretsky test of motor proficiency (botmp) was used. analysis was carried out on spss version 27.
