Better Understand Motor Deficits Associated With Autism Spectrum Disorders: Development of an Assessment Protocol

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

This research is a case-control study aiming to characterize motor peculiarities (objective quantitative and qualitative measures) and its psycho-physiological correlates of children with ASD.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Inclusion Criteria : All participants : - Be between 6 and 11 years old - Mastery of the French language - Be affiliated with a Social Security scheme or benefit from affiliation by a third person - Both parents (or the holder of legal authority) have read, understood and signed the study consent - Be affiliated with social security Participants with ASD should also verify the following Who May Qualify: - Being diagnosed with ASD (DSM-V) Exclusion Criteria : All participants : - Refusal to participate in the research on the part of the participant and / or holders of parental authority. - Be a person benefiting from enhanced protection, namely : persons deprived of their liberty by a judicial or administrative decision, persons staying in a health or social establishment. - Have uncorrected visual or hearing problems - To have concomitant psychotropic drug treatments not stabilized, initiated in the last 2 months: antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, anti-epileptics, psychostimulants, antidepressants. - Have a motor handicap of the upper or lower limbs, fitted or not. - Have diagnosed neurological or psychiatric disorders, present a general or metabolic pathology having a known impact on the child's motor skills (eg: Epilepsy, Tics and Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome, Intellectual Deficiency, Neuromuscular Syndrome, Metabolic Neurological Syndrome , neoplasms) - Suspicion of low intellectual efficiency if at least one of the two subtests (Similarities or Matrices) of WISC V (retrieved from the medical file if the TSA participant) presents a result (standard score) strictly lower than 7. Participants without ASD : - Participant with ADHD (Attention Deficit Disorder with or without Hyperactivity) or CDD (Developmental Coordination Disorder) Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.

Treatments Being Tested

BEHAVIORAL

Testing of general motor skills, fine motor skills and occulomotricity

Recording of participant's performance during eye, fine motor and gross motor tests; Children's gross motor skills will be assessed through a biomechanical analysis. Eye movements will be recorded using the eye-tracking system (Tobii Pro TX300). The technique used is the corneal reflection technique.

BEHAVIORAL

Questionnaires

Passing self and hetero questionnaires.
