The effect of a recreational program accompanied by music on some functional variables In children with Down syndrome

Abstract

 Abstract

The aim of the research is to identify:-

- The effect of the recreational program and the program followed on the functional variables identified in the research.

  The researchers relied on the experimental method according to the experimental design, which is known as the design of two equal groups with a pre-test and a post-test. The research sample was selected from people with Down syndrome aged (9-14) years, with (20) children and males only, and they were randomly distributed into two groups, control and experimental, with (10) children for each group. The research tools were determined with some physiological variables, and the researchers conducted equivalence and homogeneity for the study variables. After completing the implementation of the recreational program, post-tests were conducted and the data were processed using appropriate statistical methods. The study reached a set of conclusions, the most important of which are: -

  1- The effectiveness of the recreational program accompanied by music on functional variables

2- The recreational program accompanied by music outperformed the program followed in influencing functional variables
