الوصف: | Background: There is a renewed interest in longitudinal studies which link children’s growth, motor and cognition development. This is important for both educational outcomes and identification of children who are at risk. Aim: To identify cross-sectional sex-differences. Subjects and methods: In total, 1166 Portuguese children, aged 4–11 years, were recruited into the Growth, Motor Development and Cognition Study (GMDC-Vouzela study). Measures included: anthropometry, gestational development, motor coordination, cognitive performance, laterality, physical fitness, metabolic syndrome risk, lifestyle characteristics and environmental exposures.

However, girls had more body fat mass than boys (p |
