Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop the algorithm for planning the exercise rehabilitation services for the developmental disorder child. For a decision tree analysis, data was collected from 208 participants with encephalopathy, intellectual disabilities and autism in Seoul, Incheon and other areas through convenient sampling. The authors analyzed the collected data statistically using SAS Enterprise Miner 13.1 program and developed. On the basis of the results, the exercise rehabilitation algorithm for respective children with disabilities. The results of this study were as follows; (1) most influential factor in the exercise rehabilitation change stage of the children with encephalopathy is 'General mental function', followed by 'Cardiovascular function', 'Home life', and 'Sensory function and Pain'. (2) most influential factor in the exercise rehabilitation change stage of the children with intellectual disabilities is 'product and technology', followed by 'movement', 'support and relationship', 'attitude', 'general mental function', 'self-management' and 'service, system and policies. (3) most influential factor in the exercise rehabilitation change stage of the children with autism is 'product and technology', followed by 'service, system and policies' and 'self-management'. © 2016 International Information Institute.
