According to literatures, DCD can leave for life without the prompt early intervention. In addition, observation of intervention on adults with DCD has not been reported. Thus, the present study was designed to investigate the differences of motor coordinate ability, exercise participant stage, and movement self-perception of adults with DCD after a 10-week brisk walking training. A 30-s rope-jumping test was used to screen candidates from 480 undergraduates who took jogging as their PE course in a university. Thirty-five participants with rope-jumping scores that behind 1.5 SD (mean=49, SD=13.3) were recruited. All participants were randomly divided into experiment (Walk Grp, n=18) and control group (Cont Grp, n=17) and received a brisk walking or jogging training (60 min/week) for 10-week, respectively. The Movement-Assessment Battery of Children, (M-ABC test), Questionnaire of Exercise Participant Will, and Questionnaire of Self-Perception of Motor Performance were accomplished before and after the intervention. The reductions of M-ABC scores of the Walk and Cont Grp were 32.0% (paired-t test, p<.05) and 10.4% (paired-t test, p>.05), respectively. In another hand, the gross movement and balance skills of DCD adults positively corrected to the self-perceptions of obstacle avoiding, obstructively movement, and balance. After 10 weeks, percentage of Walk Grp that with and without actually exercise behavior increased from 33.3% to 41.2% and reduced to 58.8% from 66.7%, respectively. However, percentage of Cont Grp that with and without actually exercise behavior reduced from 35.3% to 29.4% and increased to 70.6% from 64.7%, respectively. In summary, the results demonstrated that adult with DCD percept ones movement coordination defects correctively and this 10-week brisk walking intervention not only improve the motor coordinating ability but also promote the will of exercise participation of adult with DCD.
