Assessing the impact of a perceptual-motor exercise program on the motor performance, social adaptation and self-efficacy of children with intellectual disabilities in Bukan city
Design
This is a single-blind, randomized clinical trial with a control group and parallel groups, involving 26 participants.
Randomization will be conducted using the RAND function in Exce
Settings and conduct
After examination of several education centers for these children, in terms of the number of people, an exceptional school will be selected due to the large number of participants. Among the children of that primary school, children who meet the entry and exit criteria will be selected. Sample size will be determined 26 people from this community. These people will be randomly divided into two groups of perceptual-motor exercises and control. The present study will be conducted in the sports hall of the selected school
Then the groups will be measured in the pre-test and after recording the scores of the pre-test, the perceptual-motor exercises group will be under the special exercises of their group and the control group will not be exposed to any intervention. The experimental group will participate in their exercise program for eight weeks, 3 sessions per week and each session is 45 minutes,

Description
Intervention group: Perceptual Motor Exercises The Intervention group underwent a training program spanning eight weeks, with three sessions per week, resulting in a total of 24 sessions. Each session lasted 45 minutes and was divided into three phases.The first phase, a 10-minute warm-up, incorporated stretching exercises targeting major muscle groups and joints, supplemented by slow-paced walking and jogging.The second phase, lasting 30 minutes, was dedicated to motor perception exercises. The exercise protocol implemented during this phase was adapted from the protocol established by Jafari et al. (1400).The final phase, a 5-minute cool-down, aimed to return the body to its initial state. This phase included light stretching exercises, slow walking, and deep breathing.
