Methods Forty-five children and their parents participated in the study: 23 children and their parents in the study group (children receiving consultation in the classroom and whose parents participated in the HPP) and 22 children and their parents in the control group (children receiving consultation in the classroom only). All children were recruited based on their scores on the Visual Motor Integration test or upon teacher referral. The Developmental Test of Visual Perception-2 administered before and after intervention served as an outcome measure. HPP lasted approximately 12 weeks and included relevant visual-motor activities carried out at home by the parents with their children. Results The study failed to prove that HPP improved children's visual-motor skills beyond the other service delivery methods used in the present study. Conclusions Parent satisfaction was significantly higher among those who participated in the HPP. Parents showed high compliance with the friendly programme despite their low socio-economic status. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
