Utilização do teste ktk na avaliação da coordenação motora infantil: uma análise através de revisão bibliográfica

Abstract

The aim of the study was to analyze the use of the KTK test (Körperkoordinationstest Für Kinder) in the evaluation of children's motor coordination. For this, a bibliographic review research was carried out, in which articles published between 2010 and 2020 were used. In most studies, it was observed that the KTK test was able to diagnose disorders and motor insufficiencies, taking into account factors such as BMI and practice of physical activities as performance influencers in the test scores. It was concluded that the use of the test is seen as the gold standard in the identification of motor deficits, it can be applied to children with an adequate motor pattern, as for those who have some motor weakness. However, it was found that the Physical Education professional has an important role in the inclusion of children with impaired motor coordination, always respecting the principles of biological individuality, ensuring a safe and effective treatment.
