Keywords:
diagnostic tool, DCD, concurrent validity, discriminant validity, typically developing, developmental coordination disorderAbstract
Objective: To establish the validity of Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) assessment tool in Indian context Method: This study was a quantitative research design. Thirty samples were included through simple random sampling to examine concurrent validity and discriminant validity of diagnostic assessment tool for developmental coordination disorder Results: Data was analyzed using SPSS (version 30). There was a positive correlation between Diagnostic assessment tool for developmental coordination disorder and BOT-2. There was significant difference in typically developing and developmental coordination sample on diagnostic tool for developmental coordination disorder. Conclusion: Diagnostic tool for developmental coordination disorder has good concurrent validity and correctly discriminate typically developing sample performance from Developmental coordination sample. It depicts that discriminant validity was adequate. Further normative and validation studies can be done to strengthen psychometric properties,
