| Abstract | The aim of this study was to compare running gait in children with and without developmental coordination disorder (DCD). Fourteen boys with DCD (9.5 ± 1 yr) and 14 typically developing (TD) controls (9.6 ± 1 yr) ran at a velocity of 2.44 ± 0.25 m/s along a 15m track, with kinematic and kinetic data of the trunk and lower limb obtained for three cycles of each limb using a 12-camera Vicon MX system and AMTI force plate. Although features of the kinematic and kinetic trajectories were similar between groups, the DCD group displayed decreased peak knee extension compared with the TD group prior to initial foot contact (p = 0.016). Furthermore, the DCD group displayed increased variability in sagittal plane kinematics at the hip and ankle during toe off compared with the TD group. Kinetic analysis revealed that children with DCD displayed significantly reduced knee extensor moments during the stance phase of the running cycle (p = 0.033). Consequently, peak knee power absorption and ankle power generation was significantly lower in the DCD group (p = 0.041; p = 0.017). Furthermore, there was a trend for children with DCD to have shorter strides (p = 0.052, ES = 0.499) and a longer stance period than the TD controls (p=0.06, ES = 0.729). These differences may have implications for the economy of running and subsequently the planning of targeted intervention programs to improve running gait in children with DCD. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
