Abstract

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of selective physical training on perceptual – motor development of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) (7 – 10 years old). Method: Thirty children with ASD (ages 7 – 10 years. Male) were randomly selected and tested with garz questioner and performed TGMD2 test. Then they divided into control and experimental Group, with regards of the Gars questioner scores. Then after 6 week training (two session per week) TGMD2 again performed as post test for both group. Selective exercise training was based on SPARK motor program that performed on experimental group and in this time control group just received the ordinary learning program of themselves .Results: For data analysis Leaven and covariate analysis was used. Results showed that selective physical training had significant effect on growth motor skills in experimental group (p < 0.05). Conclusions: We can conclude that selective physical training from SPARK motor program cam improve fundamental motor movement in children with autism spectrum disorder.
