Early identification of children with motor difficulties, such as developmental coordination disorder (DCD), is essential. At present only a fraction of children with DCD are identified. The purpose of the study was to systematically review the literature from 1994 to 2017 on observational screening tools and to evaluate the validity, reliability and usability of the questionnaires used.
The review of the literature was conducted to synthesize the data from five electronic databases for children aged 6-12 years. The following databases were searched: Academic search Elite (EBSCO), ERIC (ProQuest), MEDLINE (Ovid), PsycINFO (ProQuest), and SPORTDiscus with Full Text (EBSCO). The studies meeting our inclusion criteria were analyzed to assess the psychometric properties and feasibility of the measures.
The literature search retrieved 1907 potentially relevant publications. The final number of studies that met the inclusion criteria of our systematic review was 45. There were 11 questionnaires for parents, teachers and children. None of the questionnaires was valid for population-based screening as the only measurement tool.
There are many challenges in using initial screening tools to identify children with motor difficulties. Nevertheless, many promising questionnaires are being developed that can provide information on functional skills and limitations across a variety of tasks and settings in the daily lives of children with DCD. The review provides much needed information about the current scales used in many clinical, educational and research settings. Implications for assessing psychometric properties of the developed questionnaires and further research are discussed.

早期识别儿童运动困难，如发育性协调障碍（DCD），至关重要。目前，只有一小部分 DCD 儿童被识别出来。本研究的目的是系统地回顾 1994 年至 2017 年期间关于观察性筛查工具的文献，并评估所使用问卷的有效性、可靠性和可用性。
为了综合 6-12 岁儿童的五个电子数据库的数据，我们进行了文献综述。搜索了以下数据库：学术搜索精英版（EBSCO）、ERIC（ProQuest）、MEDLINE（Ovid）、PsycINFO（ProQuest）和 SPORTDiscus 全文数据库（EBSCO）。对符合纳入标准的研究进行了分析，以评估这些措施的心理测量特性和可行性。
文献检索共检索到 1907 篇潜在相关文献。最终符合我们系统综述纳入标准的研究数量为 45 项。有 11 份针对家长、教师和儿童的问卷。没有一份问卷可以作为人口基础筛查的有效工具。
使用初始筛查工具识别有运动困难的儿童存在诸多挑战。尽管如此，许多有前途的问卷正在开发中，这些问卷可以提供有关 DCD 儿童日常生活中各种任务和环境下的功能技能和局限性的信息。本综述提供了目前在许多临床、教育和研究环境中使用的量表的重要信息。讨论了评估开发中问卷的心理测量特性和进一步研究的意义。
