Many individuals diagnosed with ADHD display motor challenges that may not receive proper assessment and intervention as more emphasis is placed on the cognitive and behavioral issues associated with this diagnosis. This webinar will discuss the prevalence and nature of motor challenges, and explore the potential for the co-occurrence of Developmental Coordination Disorder, in this population. Dr Tamplain will explain how assessment tools such as the Movement ABC-3 and BOT-3 can be useful in detecting motor concerns when working with individuals with ADHD.
