Description

Yanwei Cai and co-authors published this child study in 2025. ADHD and a coordination disorder called DCD each impair motor skills, and many children carry both. The team tested a virtual-reality game program, MTSI, that trains five movement tasks at once. They enrolled 139 children: some with ADHD, some with DCD, some with both, and a group with neither.

All groups raised their game scores with repeat play. Gross and fine motor skills grew across the board. Children with both disorders gained the most, a hopeful sign since they start furthest behind. The authors say a rich, multi-task game can serve as therapy that children will actually stick with. They urge tailored plans for the dual-diagnosis group.
