Efficacy Of A Task-Based Training Approach In The Rehabilitation Of Three Children With Poor Handwriting Quality: A Pilot Study

---

Summary .— Evidence suggests that task-based training approaches can improve the performance of children with handwriting diffi culties. The present case study tests the effi cacy of the Handwriting Task Program (HTP). Three male children (9–10 yr. old) with poor handwriting skills and diff erent developmental disorders participated
in the HTP, twice per week, for 13 wk. Handwriting legibility was assessed through the Concise Evaluation Scale for Children's Handwriting, and fi ne motor performance and handwriting speed were evaluated at pre- and post-treatment
with the Visual Motor Integration Test and the Battery for the assessment of writing skills of children from 7 to 13 yr. old. The results showed that motor effi ciency and global handwriting quality improved in all the children, although some handwriting diffi culties still persisted in one child with Developmental Coordination Disorder
(DCD). Further study may confi rm on a larger sample that a visual-spatially based training may improve the handwriting legibility of children with DCD.
