Abstract:
Background And Aims

Studies have indicated that consanguineous marriage could cause the possibility of several problems in motor development. The aim of this study was to compare motor development of male and female children with consanguineous and in-law parents.

Methods

In this cross-sectional study, motor development of 15 four- and five-year-old children and 15 eight- and nine-year-old children with consanguineous parents was compared with that of 15 four- and five-year-old children and 15 eight- and nine-year-old children with in-law parents, who were enrolled from four elementary schools for boys and girls and 15 kindergartens of Arak County per multistage cluster sampling. To measure motor development, test of gross motor development (Ulrich-2) and to analyze the data, independent t test were used.

Results

Among manipulative and movement skills and gross motor development of four- to five-year-old boys and girls, motor development and movement and manipulative skills of eight- to nine-year-old boys, and movement skills of eight- to nine-year-old girls with consanguineous and in-law parents, there was no significant difference (P>0.05), but motor development and manipulative skills of eight- to nine-year-old girls with in-law parents were better than those of the children with consanguineous parents (P>0.05).

Conclusion

As motor development and manipulative skills of in-law parents’ daughters were higher than those of consanguineous parents’, it could be said that consanguineous marriage could have impact on the children’s motor development. To further clarify the effect rate of this type of marriages on motor development, it is recommended to investigate the effect of consanguineous marriage of parents in the area of athletics.
