Task-Oriented Writing Intervention for Preschoolers

This study investigates the effectiveness of a task-oriented writing intervention in improving writing performance among preschool children. The intervention is designed to enhance early writing-related abilities through structured, goal-directed writing tasks that reflect functional and meaningful activities.

Eligible preschool children will participate in a series of task-oriented writing sessions delivered in a structured learning environment. Writing performance will be assessed before and after the intervention to examine changes associated with participation in the program.

Findings from this study are expected to provide evidence to support the use of task-oriented writing interventions in early childhood educational and therapeutic settings.

Treatment and study plan

Task-Oriented Writing Intervention

Behavioral

The task-oriented writing intervention consists of structured, goal-directed writing activities designed to support the development of writing performance in preschool children. The intervention focuses on functional writing tasks that are meaningful and relevant to daily learning contexts. Sessions are delivered in a structured educational setting and emphasize active participation and practice.

Conventional Fine Motor Training

Behavioral

Participants in the control group receive conventional fine motor training focusing on hand function, coordination, and activities relevant to daily participation, without the task-oriented writing intervention.
