Exploring the multidimensional occupational participation of young adults with developmental coordination disorder

This study looked at how developmental coordination disorder (DCD) affects young adults' participation in their daily lives. The findings show that many adults with DCD have trouble with tasks like driving, finding their way, doing household chores, and taking care of themselves. However, even though they take part in social and leisure activities less often, they still enjoy these activities. Understanding these challenges can help create better support services and strategies for them. For example, occupational therapy can help people develop skills to perform daily tasks and enhance their enjoyment levels and confidence in performing these activities, leading to improved wellbeing.
