			<p>The Movement Assessment Battery for Children&ndash;Third Edition (Movement ABC-3) provides an objective measurement of gross and fine motor coordination difficulties in children and young adults aged 3 &ndash; 25 years.</p>

			<h3>Benefits</h3>

			<ul>
				<li>Identify delay or impairment in motor development</li>
				<li>Plan intervention</li>
				<li>Measure change and monitor progress over time</li>
				<li>Widely known and respected for use in research related to motor development</li>
				<li>Gain a holistic picture of motor performance using the Checklists to complement observational assessment</li>
			</ul>

			<p><strong>The Movement ABC-3 updates include:</strong></p>

			<ul>
				<li>Revised and updated test content and items</li>
				<li>New manipulatives</li>
				<li>Extended age range down to 3 and up to 25</li>
				<li>Co-collected sample between the UK and ANZ</li>
				<li>Unified constructs across ages</li>
			</ul>

			<p><strong>The Movement ABC-3 has three subtests:  </strong></p>

			<ul>
				<li>Manual Dexterity</li>
				<li>Aiming &amp; Catching</li>
				<li>Balance &amp; Locomotion</li>
			</ul>

			<p><strong>There are also separate Checklists for each age band: </strong></p>

			<ul>
				<li>Parent/Teacher/Other</li>
				<li>Self (age band 3 only)</li>
			</ul>

			<p><strong>Component benefits: </strong></p>

			<ul>
				<li>Identify delay or impairment in motor development </li>
				<li>Plan intervention </li>
				<li>Measure change and monitor progress over time </li>
				<li>Widely known and respected for use in research related to motor development </li>
				<li>Gain a holistic picture of motor performance using the Checklists to complement observational assessment </li>
			</ul>

			<p><strong>Component features: </strong></p>

			<ul>
				<li>Norms based on a sample of 1279 collected jointly in the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand</li>
				<li>Extensive international research built over the previous version of the assessment and this version - featuring in over 500 studies</li>
				<li>Numerous translations worldwide</li>
			</ul>

			<h3>Test content and structure</h3>

			<p>The test contains 10 tasks for each of 3 age ranges: 3 &ndash; 6 years (3-year-olds complete 7 tasks); 7 &ndash; 11 years and 12 &ndash; 25 years. The tasks cover the following 3 domains: </p>

			<ul>
				<li>Manual Dexterity </li>
				<li>Aiming &amp; Catching (ball skills) </li>
				<li>Balance &amp; Locomotion</li>
			</ul>

			<p>Task, domain, and Total Motor scores are provided. A profile of a child&rsquo;s performance over the different sections of the test can be examined and a &lsquo;traffic light&rsquo; system helps map areas of strength and concern. </p>

			<p>The assessment is paralleled by an observational approach to perceptual-motor aspects and emotional and motivational difficulties the individual may have in relation to motor tasks. </p>

			<h3>The Movement ABC-3 Checklists</h3>

			<p>The Movement ABC-3 Checklists provide a means for assessing movement in everyday situations in which the child or young adult participates.</p>

			<p>Use the Checklist to: </p>

			<ul>
				<li>Assess groups of students in classroom situations </li>
				<li>Obtain parents&rsquo; or teachers&rsquo; views on an individual&rsquo;s movement in everyday settings </li>
				<li>Measure the extent to which a young person&rsquo;s attitudes and feelings about motor tasks are situation-specific or more generalised </li>
				<li>Ascertain the impact of motor difficulties on an individual&rsquo;s participation in everyday activities </li>
			</ul>

			<h3>Digital administration and scoring options</h3>

			<p>The Movement ABC-3 Test is administered using paper record forms. The Movement ABC-3 Checklist can be administered using either paper or digital administration. Online scoring is available via Pearson&rsquo;s Q-global<sup>&reg;</sup> online assessment platform.</p>

						<td>Why do the Checklist norms specify different respondents for each Age Band?</td>
					</tr>
					<tr>
						<td>
						<p>During standardization, the Movement ABC-3 research team requested that two Checklists be completed for each examinee by individuals who knew them well. However, they did not specify the relationship between the examinee and the respondents. Due to the variety of respondent types, the numbers in some categories were not large enough to develop reliable norms for any group beyond the primary respondent for each Age Band. Therefore, cut-offs are provided based on the following primary respondents:</p>

						<ul>
							<li><strong>Age Band 1</strong>: Parents</li>
							<li><strong>Age Band 2:</strong>&nbsp;Parents</li>
							<li><strong>Age Band 3</strong>: Self-reports</li>
