Abstract
- This single group pre and posttest study evaluated the feasibility of a new 10-week group-based motor skills enhancement intervention: <italic>“Moving Together,”</italic> and associated use of the <italic>Challenge</italic> assessment and <italic>Gait Outcomes Assessment List (GOAL)</italic>. Participant attendance/completion and satisfaction with the assessments and intervention were evaluated, and a first estimate of associated motor skill-related changes obtained. Ten ambulatory children with cerebral palsy (7–14 years) and their parents participated. Ninety percent of <italic>Challenge</italic> sessions were attended and 82.5% of <italic>GOAL</italic> questionnaires completed. Program attendance was 83% overall. Satisfaction with assessments was high for the <italic>Challenge</italic> and moderate for the <italic>GOAL</italic>, and intervention satisfaction was high. Mean change scores (95% CI) post-intervention for the <italic>Challenge</italic> and <italic>GOAL</italic> were 4.2 (−11.4 to 3.1) and 3.6 (−14.4 to 4.0) points (/100) respectively. <italic>Challenge</italic> and <italic>GOAL</italic> use was feasible and appropriate for “<italic>MovingTogether”</italic> and associated with gains in motor skill performance and functional abilities.
