Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate auditory stimuli' effect on learning motor scheduling of follow-up tasks in children and adolescents with developmental coordination disorder (DCD). Simultaneously, with the visual scheduling signs, the audio stimulus was presented in four specific directions. Participants included 42 male students aged 9 to 12 years ) With an average age = 10/84 (with DCD in Neishabour city who enrolled based on the results of Teacher Movement Inventory, Parental Developmental Disorder Questionnaire, MABC2 motor test, spatial-visual memory assessment, intelligence assessment, Reaction time test and physical and mental health test and randomly replaced in three groups of auditory stimuli, control 1 (visual) and control 2. For this purpose, the motion tracking software was designed, and the specified pattern displayed on the tablet monitor screen (12 inches). Research stages included the pre-test, practice (10 blocks of five attempts), acquisition test, delayed retention test and transfer test. The results showed a significant difference between the acquisition stage and retention in the relative timing variable (p
