Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To investigate the relationship between cognitive function, the severity of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and the development of fine and gross motor skills in children with ASD

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A sample of 64 children with autism aged from 5 to 12 years recruited from centres and schools of special needs for intellectual and developmental disabilities to measure cognitive function using the Raven's Progressive Matrices and measure the severity of autism using the Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS). These assessments will then be compared with the children's fine and gross motor abilities
