A bio‐ecological model for early screening of developmental coordination disorder
This bio-ecological model offers a scalable, cost-effective tool to support the early identification of DCD using electronic health record data. It performs well in early childhood and maintains moderate accuracy in older children, supporting its utility for longer-term risk prediction. The model could enhance existing screening systems by enabling earlier triage and intervention. Further validation across diverse health care settings is warranted.
