Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) show deviations in motor development and motor skills in early childhood where the learning and execution of coordinated motor skills are below the level expected for their age. Early detection of DCD is critical to provide an opportunity for intervention and support, yet many cases remain undetected until school age. The study described aims to determine the warranty, feasibility and validity of a mobility screening in Tyrolean kindergartens and evaluate its potential benefit to enhance the motor development prospects of affected children.
METHODS: This research employs a two-stage cross-sectional approach with 6 months of follow-up assessments. The initial stage involves a playful mobility screening for all participating kindergarten children, followed by individual assessments for those displaying conspicuous motor skills. Motor skills will be evaluated using MobiScreen 4-6 and the Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2. Prior to the screening, informed consent is obtained from kindergarten bodies and authorities, parents and the children themselves. Parents are provided with information sheets and questionnaires to assess their attitudes and their child\'s eligibility. The study described aims to form a representative sample of kindergarten children, aged 4-6, in Tyrol. To target approximately 20-40 children with DCD for follow-up, the goal is to include 650 children, assuming an incidence of 3%-6%. For the follow-up, matching control groups will be formed and information about how identified motor deficits were addressed, including therapies or sports, will be gathered. Quantitative data will mainly be analysed descriptively, while feedback from kindergarten teachers regarding the practical implementation will be analysed using qualitative content analyses, according to Mayring.
BACKGROUND: The study has been approved by the Research Committee for Scientific Ethical Questions (RCSEQ 3369/24). Findings will be disseminated through contributions, peer-reviewed journals, and conferences.

摘要：
背景：患有发育协调障碍（DCD）的儿童在儿童早期表现出运动发育和运动技能的偏差，其中协调运动技能的学习和执行低于其年龄预期的水平。早期发现DCD对于提供干预和支持的机会至关重要，然而，许多病例直到学龄期才被发现。这项研究描述的目的是确定保修，在蒂罗尔幼儿园进行流动性筛查的可行性和有效性，并评估其对提高受影响儿童的运动发展前景的潜在益处。
方法：本研究采用两阶段横断面方法，随访6个月。初始阶段包括对所有参与的幼儿园儿童进行顽皮的行动筛查，其次是对那些表现出明显运动技能的人进行个人评估。运动技能将使用MobiScreen4-6和儿童运动评估电池2进行评估。在筛选之前,从幼儿园机构和当局获得知情同意，父母和孩子自己。向父母提供信息表和问卷，以评估他们的态度和孩子的资格。这项研究描述的目的是形成一个有代表性的幼儿园儿童样本，4-6岁，在蒂罗尔州。针对大约20-40名患有DCD的儿童进行随访，目标是包括650名儿童，假设发生率为3%-6%。对于后续行动，将形成匹配的对照组，并提供有关如何解决已识别的运动障碍的信息，包括治疗或运动，将被收集。定量数据将主要进行描述性分析，虽然幼儿园教师对实际实施的反馈将使用定性内容分析进行分析，根据Mayring。
背景：该研究已获得科学伦理问题研究委员会（RCSEQ3369/24）的批准。调查结果将通过捐款传播，同行评审期刊，和会议。
