Investigate the effect of perceptual-motor exercises with gross and fine motor skills in students with cerebral palsy

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of perceptual-motor exercises with gross and fine motor skills in children with cerebral palsy. Research design was quasi-experimental and pretest-posttest with control group. The study sample consisted of cerebral palsy children 7 to 15 years of primary school in Tabriz exceptional that 20 people eligible to take part in the study were selected randomly were assigned to two experimental and control groups (10 in experimental group and 10 in control group) were replaced. After the experimental and control groups were matched for age, gender, IQ, social and economic level were chosen. To collect the test data before and after the intervention were Ossietzky Lincoln motor efficiency. Data analysis was performed using analysis of covariance.
Findings: The results showed that in perceptual-motor skills gross and fine motor training in children with cerebral palsy has effect. In fact, perceptual-motor exercises to improve fine and gross motor skills in children with brain paralysis.
The perceptual-motor intervention could improve motor skills in children with cerebral palsy used.
