Abstract

Objective To systematically analyze the methodological characteristics and effects of motor skill interventions on the fundamental motor skills for children and adolescents with intellectual disabilities (ID) from related articles in home and abroad. Methods Articles were searched from the five databases from the establishment of the database to June 3rd, 2021, including CNKI, Wan Fang Data, EBSCO-SPORT, Web of Science and PubMed. Related data including countries and regions, experimental design, samples, interventions, evaluations and results were extracted. The methodological quality of the included articles was evaluated by PEDro. Results A total of 11 articles were included, and the effective intervention was 100%. The intervention content focused on balance, strength and coordination, mainly were low-intensive games. The appropriate intervention lasted for 6 to 8 weeks, with the frequency of 2 to 3 times/ week, 40 to 60 min/time. BOTMP was the most used evaluation tool, and the evaluation dimensions mainly focused on balance skills. Conclusions Motor skills intervention can effectively improve the fundamental motor skills of children and adolescents with ID. It is recommended to enrich the content of interventions, improve the quality of research, strengthen relevant researches on Chinese samples, and develop scientific and effective tools for evaluating fundamental motor skills of children and adolescents with ID.
