Improving children’s trunk postural control by developing upper limb tasks (University of Minho)
This collection gathers datasets related to FCT- funded research doctoral project (https://doi.org/10.54499/UI/BD/154384/2022). The present project undertakes a Scoping Review to identify scientific studies with school children focusing on methodologies used, identifying the implementation key factors and gaps, and results of postural education programmes, an Observation Study of children's body posture in the preschool natural environment to understand what body postures do children adopt in the different activities and routines, and a Postural Control evaluation study with children in preschool to measure and analyse the trunk postural control during upper limb tasks.
