Emma Worthley; Rebecca Grzadzinski; Lonnie Zwaigenbaum; Stephen R. Dager; Annette M. Estes; Heather C. Hazlett; Robert T. Schultz; Joseph Piven; Jason J. Wolff – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
This study investigated the extent to which sensory responsivity in infancy contributes to adaptive behavior development among toddlers at high-familial likelihood for autism. Prospective, longitudinal data were analyzed for 218 children, 58 of whom received an autism diagnosis. Results indicated that sensory profiles at age one year…

Differentiating Early Sensory Profiles in Toddlers at Elevated Likelihood of Autism and Association with Later Clinical Outcome and Diagnosis
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Elena Maria Riboldi; Elena Capelli; Chiara Cantiani; Carolina Beretta; Massimo Molteni; Valentina Riva – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
Sensory features are included in the diagnostic criteria of autism spectrum disorder, and sensory responsiveness may produce "cascading effects" on later development. However, the relation between early sensory profiles and later skills has yet to be defined. This study aims to characterize sensory subgroups in 116 toddlers at elevated…

Lila San Roque; Elisabeth Norcliffe; Asifa Majid – Cognitive Science, 2024
Words that describe sensory perception give insight into how language mediates human experience, and the acquisition of these words is one way to examine how we learn to categorize and communicate sensation. We examine the differential predictions of the typological prevalence hypothesis and embodiment hypothesis regarding the acquisition of…

Male and Female Toddlers with DSM-5 Autism Spectrum Disorder Have Similar Developmental Profiles and Core Autism Symptoms
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Holly K. Harris; Georgios D. Sideridis; William J. Barbaresi; Elizabeth Harstad – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Compare developmental profiles and core ASD symptom manifestation between male and female toddlers with DSM-5 ASD. Retrospective record review of 500 toddlers (79% male) at time of ASD diagnosis. There were no differences in developmental functioning between males and females. When adjusting for multiple comparisons, sex differences were only…

Png, JieYi; Kadar, Masne; Wan Yunus, Farahiyah; Yang, Wai Wai; Ahmad Rusli, Yazmin; Abdul Khaiyom, Jamilah Hanum – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2023
Sensory processing is an essential development in toddlers. A common sensory measurement tool used by Malaysian occupational therapists is Toddler Sensory Profile 2 (TSP 2). However, the Malay version has yet to be translated and validated for TSP 2 among toddlers in Malaysia. The translation and validation are a necessary process due to…

A Pilot Study Investigating the Methodology for Studying the Effectiveness of Intervention for Toddlers with Vestibular Over-Responsivity
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Boucher, Hilary; Carder, Danielle; Schoen, Sarah A. – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2023
Sensory over-responsivity in the vestibular domain (aka gravitational insecurity) has been frequently identified in the literature. However, little has been written about the effectiveness of interventions, especially in toddlers with these idiopathic challenges (e.g. without a diagnosis of autism). The objective of this pilot study was to test…

Caregiver Responses to an Intervention Focusing on Interoceptive Awareness in their Infants and Toddlers
Direct linkDirect link
Jeanette Luedders Jones – ProQuest LLC, 2021
There has been limited research on interventions with young children encompassing "interoceptive awareness," the awareness and perception of sensations from inside the body. The information in this phenomenological study examines how participants experienced a bidirectional, reflective, online intervention program on interoceptive…

Feldman, Jacob I.; Raj, Sweeya; Bowman, Sarah M.; Santapuram, Pooja; Golden, Alexandra J.; Daly, Claire; Dunham, Kacie; Suzman, Evan; Augustine, Ashley E.; Garla, Varsha; Muhumuza, Aine; Cascio, Carissa J.; Williams, Kathryn L.; Kirby, Anne V.; Keceli-Kaysili, Bahar; Woynaroski, Tiffany G. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Differences in communication development impact long-term outcomes of children with autism. Previous research has identified factors associated with communication in children with autism, but much of the variance in communication skill remains unexplained. It has been proposed that early differences in sensory responsiveness (i.e.,…
