AI-Supported and Traditional Tennis Training in Individuals With Intellectual Disabilities
Turkey (Türkiye)30 participantsStarted 2025-10-13
Plain-language summary
This study aims to examine the tennis learning experiences of children with mild intellectual disabilities aged 12-18 years by comparing a real-time pose recognition technology-supported teaching approach with a traditional face-to-face instructional method. The research focuses on how participants experience these two different teaching approaches and how these approaches influence their learning process in basic tennis skills.
A total of 30 participants will be included and divided into two groups: one group will receive tennis instruction supported by real-time pose recognition technology, and the other group will receive traditional instructor-led training. The intervention will last for 14 weeks and will focus on teaching basic tennis skills such as forehand and backhand strokes.
The study seeks to answer the following questions: How do children with mild intellectual disabilities experience technology-supported versus traditional tennis instruction? What differences exist between the two approaches in terms of learning experience, engagement, and motor skill development?

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
