Abstract

|
|
Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of Interactive Metronome(IM) training on postural control and hand writing performance of children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder(ADHD).
Methods: Participant was a third grade elementary school student diagnosed with ADHD. ABA design was used and a total of 30 sessions were held for 3 sessions every week for a total of 10 weeks. In the intervention period, IM training was conducted for 40 ~ 50 minutes before intervention for writing, and the writing task was carried out. We evaluated the handwriting legibility and speed. Before baseline A and within a month after A’ phase, COMPS(앞에 full name 먼저 쓸 것) was evaluated to examine the changes in postural control of the student.
Results: After the IM intervention, the postural control of the student improved in the score of slow movement, finger-nose touching, and asymmetrical tonic neck reflex. The handwriting legibility and speed has also tended to increase during the intervention period, but it has not significantly changed.
Conclusion: This study could be used as an evidence that the IM training aimed at improving(삭제) postural control and handwriting ability could enhance the ability to improve postural control and thereby provide fundamental knowledge for future studies.
