Data was collected from participants in three ways. Data is given in seperate files for the three methods of data collectionm file name given after description.1. Movement ability. Children with DCD had previously been assessed using a variety of screening methods. As this data was not collected within the remit of this project only the full MABC-2 score is given for participants with DCD. Adults with DCD were assessed using the MABC-2, the BOT-brief and the ADC. Typically developing children and adults completed only the manual dexerity subset of the MABC (and adults the ADC). The data can be found in .......2. An end-state-comfort task was given to participants and the positioning of the thumb and finger measured for each movement. Participants were asked to reach out an grasp a octogan and turn it to a sepcific colour (rotation increased from 30 degree to 180 degrees). For each trial Only movements of the dominant hand were recorded.........3. A simple reach-and-grasp task was given to participants. Participants reached out to a small cylinder, picked it and performed one of five onwards actions: hold it still, place in it a tight hole, place it in a loose hole, throw it or lift it. Movement of the hand was measured using a 3D VICON system running at 120Hz. Movement of the hand was based on a single wrist marker and grasp based on a marker placed on the thumb and finger. Matlab routined calculated movement kinematics. Variables cacluated were: ...... Only movements of the dominant hand were recorded.
