Research interests

My research interests are (fine-)motor skills in typically and atypically developing children. With my research project 'Uniek in je Motoriek' I try to identify qualitative development in fine motor skill tasks in children with, for example, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) compared to typically developing children.
