Download full textNational Center on Deaf-Blindness, 2021
The hands often serve as the eyes and ears of children who are deaf-blind. The hand-under-hand technique involves gently placing your hands underneath or alongside the hands of a child with deaf-blindness to help them explore and engage with the world around them. When used effectively, the hand-under-hand technique provides respectful, tactile…

Latent Class Analysis Identifies Distinctive Behavioral Subtypes in Children with Fragile X Syndrome
Peer reviewed
Direct linkWalter E. Kaufmann; Melissa Raspa; Carla M. Bann; Julia M. Gable; Holly K. Harris; Dejan B. Budimirovic; Reymundo Lozano – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is characterized by variable neurobehavioral abnormalities, which leads to difficulties in developing and evaluating treatments and in determining accurate prognosis. We employed a pediatric cross-sectional sample (1,072 males, 338 females) from FORWARD, a clinic-based natural history study, to identify behavioral subtypes…

Katy L. Unwin; Georgina Powell; Alice Price; Catherine R. G. Jones – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
Multi-sensory environments are widely used with autistic children. However, there are no data on how autistic children choose to spend time in the room and how this relates to their sensory, behavioural and intellectual profiles. We observed the frequency and duration of visits to multi-sensory environment equipment of 41 autistic children during…

Emma R. Clark; Ted Brown; Mong-Lin Yu – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2024
Interoceptive awareness refers to the way in which we perceive and interpret our body signals. It has links to sensory processing and how we understand and respond to emotion. Current research lacks evidence as to whether gender influences interoceptive awareness in children. In occupational therapy practice, clinicians use a family-centered…

Linnea DiBerardino – ProQuest LLC, 2023
At least one of five children have the personality trait Sensory Processing Sensitivity (SPS) (Aron, 2002). Students with SPS, otherwise known as highly sensitive children (HSC) process information deeply, are easily overstimulated, have high levels of empathy accompanied by emotional reactivity, and are sensitive to subtle stimuli in their…

Rajagopal, Sandhya; Nicholson, Katie; Putri, Tiara Rahadian; Addington, Joshua; Felde, Ashley – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2021
We evaluated a method for teaching children with autism spectrum disorder to respond to tactile stimulation of multiple body parts. Various objects (e.g., hairbrush) produced the sensations (e.g., prickly). In a multiple baseline design across participants, participants learned 9 sensation body part tacts and the evaluation concluded with tests of…

Jamal, Wasifa; Cardinaux, Annie; Haskins, Amanda J.; Kjelgaard, Margaret; Sinha, Pawan – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Autism is strongly associated with sensory processing difficulties. We investigate sensory habituation, given its relevance for understanding important phenotypic traits like hyper- and hypo-sensitivities. We collected electroencephalography data from 22 neuro-typical(NT) and 13 autistic(ASD) children during the presentation of visual and auditory…

Foster, Raisa; Zin, Mnemo; Keto, Sami; Pulkki, Jani – Educational Studies: Journal of the American Educational Studies Association, 2022
Western modernity has shaped people's thought patterns and value hierarchies, relegating humans to the position of supremacy. This anthropocentric worldview has disconnected humans from the rest of nature and eventually led to the social and ecological catastrophe. This paper shows that collective memory work can help us recognize how we are…

McKernan, Elizabeth P.; Wu, Ying; Russo, Natalie – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Previous studies have suggested that sensory overresponsivity in youth with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may be due to a failure to habituate to stimuli. We examined the relationship between performance on three tactile psychophysical tasks and the construct of sensory overresponsivity in children with and without ASD. Sensory overresponsivity…

Sanderud, Jostein Rønning – Journal of Adventure Education and Outdoor Learning, 2020
This paper introduces the concept 'mutual experiences' to highlight how a researcher's sensory experiences may contribute to producing knowledge concerning children's bodily play in a natural environment. The article also demonstrates how photo-interviews can give a researcher virtual access to places and events where s/he cannot be present. The…

Merewether, Jane; Gobby, Brad; Blaise, Mindy – Equity & Excellence in Education, 2022
Onrushing ecological precarity and collapse disproportionately affects particular humans and their common worlds. This article proposes that in the face of the myriad crises the Earth is experiencing, and the uneven distribution of their effects, extending conceptions of justice in education beyond the human is crucial. This, however, requires…

Lee, Gabrielle T.; Hu, Xiaoyi; Liu, Yanhong; Yang, Zijin – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2021
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often lack symbolic play skills. Attribution of pretend properties (APP) is a type of symbolic play in which a child tacts pretend properties of an object (e.g., smelling a toy flower and saying, "It smells like a rose!"). Three Chinese boys (5-6 years of age) with ASD served as participants.…

Laura B. Waller; William N. Bender – Corwin, 2024
Studies show that 46-75% of children experience trauma, often resulting in depression, anxiety, and challenging behavior as well as long-term physical and mental health issues. Today's educators, counselors, and clinicians need the right strategies to help. Written by experts with years of experience working with children and teens exposed to…

Broadbent, Hannah J.; Osborne, Tamsin; Mareschal, Denis; Kirkham, Natasha Z. – Developmental Science, 2019
Multisensory tools are commonly employed within educational settings (e.g. Carter & Stephenson, 2012), and there is a growing body of literature advocating the benefits of presenting children with multisensory information over unisensory cues for learning (Baker & Jordan, 2015; Jordan & Baker, 2011). This is even the case when the…

Kirby; Bahar Keceli-Kaysili; Tiffany G. Woynaroski – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Early differences in sensory responsiveness may contribute to difficulties with communication among autistic children; however, this theory has not been longitudinally assessed in infants at increased familial versus general population-level likelihood for autism (Sibs-autism vs. Sibs-NA) using a comprehensive battery of sensory responsiveness and…
