Abstract

From a holistic approach, the dance is considered a tool which contributes to the wellbeing of a person. Previous studies claimed to improve the emotional and physical well-being through the Human Figure Drawing (HFD) on a population with intellectual disability (ID). The HFD was evaluated before and after a dance session, but not throughout it. Therefore, the objectives of this study are: update previous studies of the HFD test on a ID population participating in dance activities. To review the most appropriate type of instrument for people with ID to supplement the information obtained from the HFD test related to the changes in motion that occur during the dance session. Determinate which characteristics the protocol should have in order to generate an evaluation tool to assess movement changes.
