本研究旨在探讨焦虑症儿童的运动技能表现和自我知觉能力，并与非精神疾病儿童进行比较。来自卑尔根儿童研究的329名8至11岁儿童的运动技能和自我感知进行了评估。采用Kiddie-SADS PL诊断访谈来定义一组无共病诊断的焦虑症儿童，以及根据性别、年龄和全量表智商匹配的对照组（无诊断）。与对照组相比，焦虑症组的儿童表现出运动技能受损，自我感知的同伴接纳和身体能力较差。三分之二的焦虑男孩在儿童运动评估组合（MABC）中得分为运动问题。目前的研究表明，受损的运动技能的男孩与“纯”焦虑症。与对照组儿童相比，焦虑儿童还认为自己不太被同龄人接受，在体育活动方面能力较差。
This study investigates motor skill performance and self-perceived competence in children with anxiety disorders compared with children without psychiatric disorders. Motor skills and self-perception were assessed in 329 children aged 8 to 11 years, from the Bergen Child Study. The Kiddie-SADS PL diagnostic interview was employed to define a group of children with an anxiety disorder without comorbid diagnosis, and a control group (no diagnosis) matched according to gender, age, and full-scale IQ. Children in the anxiety disorder group displayed impaired motor skills and poor self-perceived peer acceptance and physical competence compared with the control group. Two-thirds of the anxious boys scored on the Motor Assessment Battery for Children (MABC) as having motor problems. The present study demonstrated impaired motor skills in boys with "pure" anxiety disorders. Anxious children also perceived themselves as being less accepted by peers and less competent in physical activities compared with children in the control group.
