The book aims to provide a comprehensive overview of assessments
and interventions applied in young children with, or at high risk,
for developmental motor disorders. It provides an evidence-based
practical guide for health professionals working in the field of
early detection and early intervention (e.g., paediatricians and
paediatric physiotherapists). Parts I & II provide an overview
of the clinical picture of early detection and early intervention
and the neurodevelopmental mechanisms occurring in early life are
discussed, including vulnerability and plasticity. In Parts III
& IV basic principles and features governing typical and
atypical motor development are explained, covering not only motor
development but also sensory and cognitive development. Part V
summarises the methods available for assessments, including
information on technical details of the tools and psychometric
properties. Finally, Part VI discusses early intervention,
including evidence on effectiveness, together with the application
of equipment in young children with developmental motor disorders.
Special attention is paid to the family and environmental
adaptations.
