Participants included 142 schoolchildren (mean age: 7.08 ± 0.61 years) who completed a computerised version of the Developmental Eye Movement (DEM) test while their eye movements were recorded, and Northeastern State University College of Optometry's Oculomotor test (NSUCO). Children were classified into three groups based on their level of motor performance, which was measured by the Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2 (MABC-2). The group with typical motor performance had higher percentiles for both vertical and horizontal time, fewer errors, number of saccades, fixations, and regressions, and faster test performance. Visual test results correlate with the motor assessment outcomes; correlations are weak or moderate. Our findings emphasise the interconnectedness of motor and ocular motility. Hence, including evaluation of visual and motor proficiencies at school age would help to detect struggles in these crucial areas of development. 000145572 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 000145572 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000145572 700__ $$aEider Bereau Iridoy, Eider 000145572 700__ $$aPardo Sofín, Paula 000145572 700__ $$aCebrián Lafuente, José Luis 000145572 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-7260-0473$$aBerdejo, Víctor$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000145572 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0003-4513-6801$$aRuiz-Garros, Cristina$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000145572 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-2516-6053$$aLópez-de-la-Fuente, María José$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000145572 7102_ $$11006$$2413$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
