Improving the educational experiences of Aboriginal children and young people
(Central) Auditory Processing Disorder ([C]APD) is an umbrella term for children who have difficulty with listening, despite normal hearing. Children with (C)APD frequently experience academic, behavioural, emotional, cognitive and social difficulties, and lack accessible, long-lasting wholistic treatments. Hence, a transdisciplinary intervention has been developed – Auditory-Cued Exercise Therapy.
Mentalization (the ability to hold in mind and interpret one's own and others' mental states in order to make sense of behaviour) has been consistently linked with the development of secure parent-infant attachment as well as with adult mental health.

We also tested whether this association differed by men's age, household income, social support, illicit drug use and help-seeking.

Children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) experience difficulties performing fundamental movement skills, resulting in reduced physical activity (PA). Given low PA can impact mental and physical health, improving PA in DCD appears imperative. This study investigates the feasibility of a Facebook delivered, parent mediated, PA intervention for children with DCD.
