Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of virtual reality training program on motor imagery ability in children with developmental coordination disorder(DCD).The sampling design was purposive and 40 female children with DCD(aged 7-10years) from students of Tabriz, by using DCDQ, PMOQ-T, and BOTMP tests were identified and were randomly replaced in two groups of experimental and control groups. The virtual reality training program consisted of a selection of Xbox 360 Kinect games that were performed for 8 weeks (2 sessions per week and each session lasting 30 minutes). Motor imagery of children was also measured by using a hand rotation task test. The Results of repeated measure ANOVA showed that there was a significant difference between two groups on motor imagery ability (P
