Measuring psychological, cognitive, and social domains of physical literacy in school-aged children with neurodevelopmental disabilities: a systematic review and decision tree.

Subscales are available to assess psychological, cognitive, or social competence. For school-aged children with neurodevelopmental disabilities, these have moderate to high strength psychometric support. A decision tree will assist practitioners in subscale selection. Future studies are needed to establish gold standard assessment of physical literacy for this population.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONPsychological Activity Competence can be measured for children with neurodevelopmental disabilities, subscales from The Behaviour Rating Inventory of Executive Function, Second Edition (BRIEF2; The Dimensions of Mastery Questionnaire 17.0 (DMQ17); and The Quality of Life Inventory-Disability (QI-Disability).Cognitive Activity Competence can be measured using a subscale from The Scale of Attention in Intellectual Disability (SAID).Social Activity Competence can be measured using subscales from the BRIEF2, and The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ).Clinicians can use the Physical Literacy decision tree to guide selection of these tools.
