Authors
Abstract
Introduction: The purpose of this study was to assess the validity and reliability of the second edition of test of gross motor development (TGMD-2 Ulrich) in 7-11 aged children of Semnan province, Iran. Materials and Methods: TGMD-2 measures 12 fundamental movement skills divided evenly into locomotor and object control subtests. 1277 children (651 girls and 626 boys) aged from seven to eleven years were participated. Results: Cronbach's alpha coefficients for the two subtests were ranged from 0.60 to 0.78, and test-retest reliability was from 0.86 to 0.89. Two-factor structure of TGMD-2 and proper assignment of skills to locomotor and object control factors were supported for our population. Conclusion: Based on our findings, we conclude that the TGMD-2 is an appropriate tool to examine the gross motor skills in this population
