For screening, Developmental Coordination Disorder Questionnaire and Raven's progressive matrices test were used. The dependent variables were assessed by Neuropsychological Conner Questionnaire. The experimental group received an 8-week (3 sessions per week, each session 45 min.) locomotor intervention of gymnastics protocol. Statistical analysis was performed using multivariate covariance analysis at P≥0.05 with SPSS16 software. The findings showed significant differences between control and experimental groups in all variables of executive functions (P≤0.001, F= 492.454a) and sensory – motor function (P≤0.001, F=285.693a). Accordingly, it can be concluded that gymnastics training can improve neuropsychological functioning in children with developmental coordination disorder.
