Objective: A neuro-developmental illness, autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a collection of intricate neurological conditions marked by challenges with social interaction and communication as well as reluctance to change. The purpose of this research was to examine the effects of a particular bundle of physical exercises and remedial games on the motor abilities of kids diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder.
Materials & Methods: In the Iranian regions of Rasht, N = 36 boys with autism spectrum disorder were included in an experimental investigation using random selection. Three groups of twelve boys each were used in the sample for the intervention, which included a control group, a package of physical exercises, and a selection of corrective games. Oseretsky Bruininks Upper-limb coordination as well as gross and fine motor abilities were assessed using the Test of Motor Proficiency (BOT-2). Using SPSS version 23 software, the analysis of variance statistical test was used for the statistical analysis.
Results: The findings demonstrated that after a period of specific remedial games and physical exercises, the mean gross motor abilities considerably improved (P=0.01). Additionally, there was a significant difference in upper limb coordination (P=0.03), gross and fine motor skill total (P=0.02), and fine motor skill differences (P=0.03) between the two training groups.
Conclusion: The study's findings indicated that both programs had a positive impact on the motor abilities of youngsters diagnosed with autism spectrum condition. Furthermore, the findings indicated that the physical exercise program used in this study has shown significant impacts on the motor abilities of children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, in comparison to the chosen corrective games. According to the findings of this study, the researcher recommends the physical training program introduced in this research as an appropriate regimen for enhancing the motor abilities of individuals with autism spectrum condition.
