Abstract Summary
Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) exhibit different movement patterns relative to their peers with typical development (TD). Few distinguishable patterns have been determined, although some have been hypothesized. The current study analysed whether coordination variability (vCRP) of the lower extremity could be used as a descriptor of motor impairments observed in children with ASD. Findings revealed that children with ASD exhibited significantly different vCRP when compared to a normative group of children with TD in each sub-phases of the gait cycle.
