The Test of Gross Motor Development Third Edition (TGMD-3) is used to assess the development of fundamental movement skills in children from 3 to 10 years old. This study aimed to evaluate the intra-rater, inter-rater, and test-retest reliability and to determine the minimal detectable change (MDC) value of the TGMD-3 in children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD).
The TGMD-3 was administered to 20 children with DCD. The child's fundamental movement skills were recorded using a digital video camera. Reliability was assessed at two occasions by three raters using the generalizability theory.
The TGMD-3 demonstrates good inter-rater reliability for the locomotor skills subscale, the ball skills subscale, and the total score (φ = 0.77 - 0.91), while the intra-rater reliability was even higher (φ = 0.94 - 0.97). Test-retest reliability was also shown to be good (φ = 0.79-0.93). The MDC was determined to be 10 points.
This study provides evidence that the TGMD-3 is a reliable test when used to evaluate fundamental movement skills in children with DCD and suggests that an increase of 10 points represents a significant change in the motor function of a child with DCD.
《粗大运动发育测试第三版》（TGMD - 3）用于评估3至10岁儿童基本运动技能的发育情况。本研究旨在评估发育协调障碍（DCD）儿童中TGMD - 3的评分者内信度、评分者间信度和重测信度，并确定其最小可检测变化（MDC）值。
对20名DCD儿童进行TGMD - 3测试。使用数码摄像机记录儿童的基本运动技能。由三名评分者在两个时间点使用概化理论评估信度。
TGMD - 3在移动技能分量表、球类技能分量表和总分方面显示出良好的评分者间信度（φ = 0.77 - 0.91），而评分者内信度更高（φ = 0.94 - 0.97）。重测信度也显示良好（φ = 0.79 - 0.93）。确定MDC为10分。
本研究提供了证据表明，TGMD - 3用于评估DCD儿童基本运动技能时是一项可靠的测试，并表明增加10分代表DCD儿童运动功能有显著变化。
