Official title

An Investigation of Trunk Control in Young Children With Down Syndrome

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Overall, the purpose of this dissertation research is to investigate trunk control in young children with DS. This will be done in three studies: 1. The purpose of the first study is to determine the reliability of the SATCo in young children with DS. The hypothesis is that the SATCo will demonstrate good (κ \> 0.8) interrater and intrarater reliability. 2. The purpose of the second study is to examine the validity of the SATCo with the GMFM-66 and determine whether age and SATCo score predict GMFM-66 score in young children with DS. The hypotheses are that 1) the SATCo will show concurrent validity with the GMFM-66, and 2) both age and SATCo scores will be significant predictors of GMFM-66 scores. 3. The purpose of the third study is to explore the impact of a dynamic standing device (Upsee) on trunk control and motor skills in young children with DS. The hypothesis is that participants will demonstrate a greater change in scores on the SATCo and the GMFM during the dynamic standing home program phase than during the baseline phases.
