2 0 0 0 OA 自閉症スペクトラム障害児における不器用と自閉症特性の関連についての検討
自閉症スペクトラム障害(ASD)児における不器用すなわち運動スキル障害の特徴について、国際的によく知られた運動アセスメントであるMABC2を用いて評価すると共に、その成績の個人差に関わる要因について探索的に検討した。重篤な知的障害のないASD児を対象とした一連の測定の結果、ASD児における運動スキル障害の個人差は、彼らの自閉症特性や内部モデルの機能水準などと関連することが明らかとなった。また、ASD児の運動課題遂行の様相を分析したところ、運動要素間の移行がスムーズでない可能性が示唆された。更に年齢縦断的に見ると、ASD児におけるMABC2の低成績は改善する場合もあることが明らかとなった。

This study was conducted to investigate the factors of one foot balancing and beam-walking in persons with intellectual disabilities (ID). There were 181 subjects with ID (male, 126; female, 55; 14 persons with autism; 22 with Down's Syndrome (DS)). One foot balancing was measured with eyes open and with eyes closed. In the beam-walking test, the subjects were asked to walk on five types of beam 3 meters in length. A stepwise multiple regression analysis was used to analyze the results. The dependent variables were the one foot balancing score (sec) with eyes open and with eyes closed and the beam-walking score (from 0 to 5), and the independents were sex, age, height (cm), weight (kg), IQ, presence/absence of autism, and presence/absence of DS. The results were as follows: (1) The one foot balancing with eyes open only related to IQ. Persons with a higher IQ showed a higher score in all the three balance tests than those with a lower IQ. The one foot balancing with eyes closed correlated with IQ and presence/absence of autism. Autistic subjects stood longer than persons with other IDs. The beam walking correlated with IQ, presence/absence of autism, and presence/absence of DS. Autistic subjects attained a higher score than subjects with other IDs, and DS subjects had lower scores. These characteristics of balance in subjects with ID are discussed in terms of executive function, motor dysfunction, and compensatory strategies.
