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…

Keating, Jennifer; Gaffney, Rebecca; Bramham, Jessica; Downes, Michelle – European Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2022
This systematic review aims to (1) establish how different types of assessment measure sensory modulation difficulties in children with ADHD, and (2) to examine whether sensory modulation difficulties can be separated from ADHD symptomatology. The review protocol was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42018091730). PRISMA guidelines were used. Three…

Beyer, Olivia; Butler, Sabrina; Murphy, Bradley; Olig, Matthew; Skinner, Schye; Szczech Moser, Christy – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2019
Occupational therapists are continuously challenged to keep up with current concepts, theories, and research related to their specific area of practice. This review will highlight research related to the concepts of sensory integration and sensory processing as well as helpful websites, books and apps, in an attempt to facilitate a better…

Noddings, Alicia – Montessori Life: A Publication of the American Montessori Society, 2017
Ten years after the author first wrote in "Montessori Life" about the challenges of identifying, diagnosing, and treating sensory processing disorder (SPD) in young children many of the same difficulties remain. The good news is that more people know about sensory integration (SI) and SPD than ever before. The bad news? Little has been…

Sabatos-DeVito, Maura; Schipul, Sarah E.; Bulluck, John C.; Belger, Aysenil; Baranek, Grace T. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2016
This study used a gap-overlap paradigm to examine the impact of distractor salience and temporal overlap on the ability to disengage and orient attention in 50 children (4-13 years) with ASD, DD and TD, and associations between attention and sensory response patterns. Results revealed impaired disengagement and orienting accuracy in ASD.…

Weiner, Brad; Grenier, Michelle – Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance, 2020
This article presents information on the impact of hyper or hypo-sensory responses and specific strategies that can balance the systems. We examine the five sensory systems (tactile, auditory, visual, proprioceptive, and vestibular), common behaviors associated with each system, and recommend instructional strategies designed to support student…

Pingale, Vidya; Fletcher, Tina; Candler, Catherine – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2019
Objective: Investigate the effect of sensory diets on children's sensory processing, psychosocial skills, and classroom engagement behaviors in the school environment.Method: A single subject A-B-A design was used with three children attending 1st and 2nd-grade level special education classes in an urban public school. Three target behaviors…

Case-Smith, Jane; Weaver, Lindy L.; Fristad, Mary A. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2015
Children with autism spectrum disorders often exhibit co-occurring sensory processing problems and receive interventions that target self-regulation. In current practice, sensory interventions apply different theoretic constructs, focus on different goals, use a variety of sensory modalities, and involve markedly disparate procedures. Previous…

Papadopoulos, Judith; Domahs, Frank; Kauschke, Christina – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2017
Although it has been established that human beings process concrete and abstract words differently, it is still a matter of debate what factors contribute to this difference. Since concrete concepts are closely tied to sensory perception, perceptual experience seems to play an important role in their processing. The present study investigated the…

Miller Kuhaneck, Heather; Kelleher, Jacqueline – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2018
The Classroom Sensory Environment Assessment (CSEA) is a tool that provides a format for examining the sensory environment of a classroom and considering its impact on student behavior and performance. The purpose of the CSEA is to promote awareness of classroom sensory experiences for general elementary education teachers and to aide…

Riby, Deborah M.; Janes, Emily; Rodgers, Jacqui – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2013
This study explored the relationship between sensory processing abnormalities and repetitive behaviours in children with Williams Syndrome (WS; n = 21). This is a novel investigation bringing together two clinical phenomena for the first time in this neuro-developmental disorder. Parents completed the Sensory Profile (Short Form; Dunn in The…

Alyssa Conklin-Moore discusses normalization in the child under three from several perspectives. She takes an extensive look at the child, including orienting parents to the Montessori environment, the child's entrance into the environment, addressing the sensitive periods, and fostering independence, contribution, and community.

Duncan, Sandra; Salcedo, Michelle – Exchange: The Early Childhood Leaders' Magazine Since 1978, 2012
Imagine that a teacher and her class are standing in the middle of Times Square, in the heart of New York City. If they were standing there together, they would probably describe the dazzling and sometimes blinking lights, the myriad of bright colors, the vast crowds, the towering buildings, the ever-present sounds, and perhaps some interesting…

Kalpidou, Maria – Early Child Development and Care, 2012
The author tested the hypothesis that attachment to comfort objects is based on the sensory processing characteristics of the individual. Fifty-two undergraduate students with and without a childhood comfort object reported sensory responses and performed a tactile threshold task. Those with a comfort object described their object and rated their…

Siaperas, Panagiotis; Ring, Howard A.; McAllister, Catherine J.; Henderson, Sheila; Barnett, Anna; Watson, Peter; Holland, Anthony J. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2012
The aims of this study were to investigate whether individuals with AS have impaired motor abilities and sensorimotor processing and whether these impairments were age-related. Sensorimotor abilities were examined using the Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2, and the Sensory Integration Praxis Test. Fifty boys with AS aged 7-14 years old…
