The individual items are categorized under one of three behavioral indices: Behavioral, Cognitive, and Emotional. There is also an overall Global Executive Composite. Poor executive functioning has been found to adversely effect the development of social skills.The Parent/ guardian and Teacher forms will be used in this study to gain the perspective of people who know the child at home, but also someone who knows them in a community setting without parent/ guardian's present. This assessment will be completed prior to the first session and following the last session.

Children with disabilities ages 5-17 will participate. The objectives of this study are to determine the influence of a collaborative occupational therapy interactive vaulting program on the executive function and social participation in children with disabilities.', 'detailedDescription': 'Investment by researchers has been made, however, little research exists that systematically evaluates the effectiveness of occupational therapy (OT) interventions in equine assisted activities, and none have included interactive vaulting. Research that has been conducted has supported the use of equines in OT treatment sessions (hippotherapy) in increasing length of time engaged in activities, compared to conventional therapy as well as improvements in postural sway, adaptive behaviors, and participation. In addition, it has been found that children with visual impairments who participated in a 6-week EAT program demonstrated clinically significant changes in occupational performance and qualitative themes of peer interaction, taking on challenges and overall satisfaction with the program.\n\nThe gaps in research warrant investigation into the efficacy of this intervention in the development of executive functioning and social skills in children with disabilities. Further research needs to be conducted to determine the effectiveness of occupational therapy in this context. Occupational therapy interventions will be integrated into the existing program. Group interventions will target the emotional awareness and regulation, social skills, and use cognitive strategies to improve social interactions with peers and adults.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD'], 'maximumAge': '17 Years', 'minimumAge': '5 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion criteria\n\nChildren must:\n\n* have a documented developmental disability\n* be eligible only to participate in equine assisted activities.\n* be ambulatory with or without an assistive device\n* be able to follow 2-3 step directions\n* not be aggressive toward animals, peers, or staff\n\nExclusion criteria:\n\nChildren who:\n\n* do not have a documented developmental disability\n* are ONLY eligible for equine assisted therapy because of significant physical and/ or medical limitations (i.e.: occupational, physical, or speech therapy).\n* are non-ambulatory\n* are unable to follow 2-3 step directions\n* are aggressive towards animals, peers, or staff\n* does not have a developmental disorder (i.e.: has only mental health disorder)'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04481334', 'briefTitle': 'Study: Effects of a Collaborative Occupational Therapy Interactive Vaulting', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'East Carolina University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Study: Effects of a Collaborative Occupational Therapy Interactive Vaulting Program on Executive Function', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'UMCIRB 18-001488'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'One group', 'description': 'One group pre-test, post-test design', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Collaborative occupational therapy interactive vaulting group']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Collaborative occupational therapy interactive vaulting group', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'Children will participate in a weekly 60 minute group that focuses on the devilment of social skills by incorporating activities that require team work.
