Dunn, Winnie – American Journal of Mental Retardation, 1988
In a response to a critique of studies on the use of sensory integration therapy with mentally retarded persons, the article claims that sensory integration therapy is based upon a solid foundation of established knowledge in the neurosciences. (DB)

Kimball, Judith G. – American Journal of Mental Retardation, 1988
In a response to a critique of studies on the use of sensory integration therapy with mentally retarded persons, the article criticizes the original authors for finding fault with the theory of sensory integration rather than reviewing research on sensory integration. (DB)

Jenkins, Joseph R.; And Others – American Journal of Mental Deficiency, 1983
The relative effects of individualized sensory integrative therapy vs small group, gross motor programs were examined with 44 handicapped preschoolers with motor delays. No significance between group differences were observed in gross motor gains or in sensorimotor gains. (Author/CL)

Ainsa, Trisha – Academic Therapy, 1983
A summer home intervention program provided sensory integration therapy and visual-motor integration tasks to a preschooler with gross and fine motor delays. The child was involved in enjoyable activities and encouraged to talk to himself during his actions. The program was both successful and fun. (CL)

Zendel, I. H.; Pihl, R. O. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1983
It was found that although learning disabled elementary children did more poorly than normal children at tasks involving intersensory and intrasensory matches, the psychological processes related to performance were, with one exception, similar between groups. (Author/CL)

Green, Bernard L. – New York University Education Quarterly, 1980
This paper makes a start in the search for a fair test of prelingually deaf children's short-term visual memory ability by exploring the coding problems presented to them by the traditional digit-span test. It suggests that more research be devoted to the problem of stimulus-response compatibility. (Suthor/SJL)

Kovitz, Valerie S. – Academic Therapy, 1980
The article suggests activities to help learning disabled children develop awareness of the differences between right and left. Techniques for combining movement, language, and sensory skills as well as for using musical, visual, and tactile stimuli are described. (CL)

Early, George H.; And Others – Academic Therapy, 1976
Investigated with 69 elementary grade children was the relationship between a cross-modal perceptual-motor task and academic achievement. (DB)

Grandin, Temple – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 1996
An individual with autism addresses the need for more research on sensory problems in autism. Difficulties that autistic individuals have with sensory processing, attention shifting, and sensory mixing between modalities are noted. Preliminary evidence of the effectiveness of sensory integration therapy is noted. (DB)

Case-Smith, Jane – Occupational Therapy Journal of Research, 1997
Interviews with 13 occupational therapists who provide school-based services identified three themes: (1) reframing children's behavior, often with sensory integration theory; (2) supporting the child's psychosocial core and self-image; and (3) collaborating with team members, including parents, to help children achieve life goals.

Clifford, Jane M.; Bundy, Anita C. – Occupational Therapy Journal of Research, 1989
The Preschool Play Scale (PPS) and the Preschool Play Materials Preference Inventory were administered to 35 normal preschool boys and 31 with sensory integrative dysfunction (SID). Results indicated no differences in regard to play preference, lower scores for SID boys on the PPS, and no relationship between performance and preference for SID…
