Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the optimal challenge point for learning motor skills in children with and without attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Ninety-six 9- to 10-year-old children, including 48 children with ADHD and 48 neurotypical children, were randomly assigned to one of four practice groups with varying levels of nominal and functional task difficulty. They performed 63 trials of a dart throwing task in the acquisition phase and 18 trials in the retention and transfer tests a day later. The results showed that neurotypical children outperformed children with ADHD in all phases of the study. Both groups improved in the acquisition phase and performed better in the retention and transfer tests. Interestingly, low nominal task difficulty was associated with better learning for both groups, despite lower average performance for children with ADHD. Thus, despite their performance differences, we did not find a difference in the effective challenge point between children with ADHD and their neurotypical peers.

确定注意力缺陷/多动症儿童学习运动技能的最佳挑战点。
本研究的目的是调查注意力缺陷/多动症(ADHD)儿童和非注意力缺陷/多动症儿童学习运动技能的最佳挑战点。96名9至10岁的儿童(包括48名多动症儿童和48名神经畸形儿童)被随机分配到名义和功能任务难度不同的四个练习组中的一个。他们在习得阶段进行了 63 次投掷飞镖任务的练习,并在一天后进行了 18 次保持和迁移测试。结果表明,神经畸形儿童在研究的所有阶段都优于多动症儿童。两组儿童在习得阶段都有进步,在保持和迁移测试中表现更好。有趣的是,尽管多动症儿童的平均成绩较低,但名义任务难度较低与两组儿童的学习成绩均较好有关。因此,尽管多动症儿童与神经正常儿童在成绩上存在差异,但我们并未发现他们在有效挑战点上存在差异。

期刊介绍: Human Movement Science provides a medium for publishing disciplinary and multidisciplinary studies on human movement. It brings together psychological, biomechanical and neurophysiological research on the control, organization and learning of human movement, including the perceptual support of movement. The overarching goal of the journal is to publish articles that help advance theoretical understanding of the control and organization of human movement, as well as changes therein as a function of development, learning and rehabilitation. The nature of the research reported may vary from fundamental theoretical or empirical studies to more applied studies in the fields of, for example, sport, dance and rehabilitation with the proviso that all studies have a distinct theoretical bearing. Also, reviews and meta-studies advancing the understanding of human movement are welcome. These aims and scope imply that purely descriptive studies are not acceptable, while methodological articles are only acceptable if the methodology in question opens up new vistas in understanding the control and organization of human movement. The same holds for articles on exercise physiology, which in general are not supported, unless they speak to the control and organization of human movement. In general, it is required that the theoretical message of articles published in Human Movement Science is, to a certain extent, innovative and not dismissible as just "more of the same."
