Individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are typically characterized by impairment in motor skills, behavior, and attention. Exercise can improve these parameters. Individuals with ID and ASD are not very keen on performing the traditional physical activity (PA). The Drums-Alive Program (DAP) is a new form of PA that can improve physiological and psychological parameters in children and seniors (Wright, Ehnold, Roschmann, & Wolf, 2010). We examined mean changes in motor skills, behavior, and attention after an 8-week DAP intervention in adolescents with ID and ASD. Two multivariate analyses were performed. The first revealed no significant mean changes between pre- and post-intervention means in motor skills, behavior, and attention. The second revealed a combined significant difference between pre- and post-intervention means in restlessness, initiation, and consistent attention (P < 0.05). Subsequently, a univariate analysis suggested consistent attention (p = 0.08) was trending towards significance. The effect size for the second model was 0.96. This study suggests that although no significant mean changes in motor skills, behavior, and attention after an 8-week DAP were found, it was encouraging to find consistent attention trending towards significant improvement in this particular population.
