: Children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) frequently experience comorbid motor problems, developmental coordination disorder. Also, children with ADHD are said to overestimate their abilities in the cognitive and social domain, the so-called "Positive Illusory Bias." In this cross-sectional study, the relationship between actual motor performance and perceived motor competence was examined.
Motor performance was assessed using the Movement Assessment Battery for Children in 100 children and adolescents (age 6-17 years), including 32 children with ADHD combined type, 18 unaffected siblings, and 50 healthy control children. ADHD was diagnosed using Parent and Teacher questionnaires and a clinical interview. Perceived motor competence and interest in the motor domain were rated with the Dutch supplement scale to Harters' Self-Perception Profile for Children, especially focusing on the motor domain (m-CBSK).
Children with ADHD had poorer motor performance than unaffected siblings and control children, especially in the field of manual dexterity. However, no relationship was found between motor performance and perceived motor competence. Only children with the very lowest motor performance had a significantly lowered perception of their motor competence. Interest in the motor domain and motor self-perception was positively correlated.
Children with ADHD performed poorer on the Movement Assessment Battery for Children, but generally overestimated their own motor competence.
患有注意缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）的儿童经常出现运动问题共病，即发育性协调障碍。此外，据称 ADHD 儿童高估了自己在认知和社会领域的能力，即所谓的“积极错觉偏见”。在这项横断面研究中，考察了实际运动表现与感知运动能力之间的关系。
使用儿童运动评估电池（Movement Assessment Battery for Children）对 100 名儿童和青少年（6-17 岁）进行运动表现评估，其中包括 32 名 ADHD 混合型儿童、18 名未受影响的兄弟姐妹和 50 名健康对照儿童。ADHD 使用父母和教师问卷以及临床访谈进行诊断。感知运动能力和对运动领域的兴趣使用 Harters' Self-Perception Profile for Children 的荷兰补充量表（Dutch supplement scale to Harters' Self-Perception Profile for Children）进行评估，特别是侧重于运动领域（m-CBSK）。
ADHD 儿童的运动表现比未受影响的兄弟姐妹和对照组儿童差，尤其是在手部灵巧性方面。然而，运动表现与感知运动能力之间没有发现关系。只有运动表现极低的儿童对自己的运动能力感知明显降低。对运动领域的兴趣和运动自我感知呈正相关。
ADHD 儿童在儿童运动评估电池上的表现较差，但普遍高估了自己的运动能力。
