Paula Araya-Herrera
Research on outcomes for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who have gross motor developmental delay is increasing, although there is still a lack of thorough studies. This longitudinal cohort research examines the trajectories of gross motor development in 6,359 children, utilising data from the Growing Up in New Zealand study, with a focus on 173 children with ASD diagnoses or concerns. Early interventions are crucial for treating gross motor difficulties in children with ASD, providing insights into potential paths for long-term developmental assistance.
