Weiland, Ricarda F.; Polderman, Tinca J. C.; Hoekstra, Rosa A.; Smit, Dirk J. A.; Begeer, Sander – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Sensory symptoms were recently added to the diagnostic criteria of autism spectrum disorder and may be a mechanism underlying the broad phenotype of autism spectrum disorder. To measure sensory symptoms based on perceptual rather than affective, regulative, or attention components, the Sensory Perception Quotient (SPQ) measuring five modalities of…

Kolacz, Jacek; Raspa, Melissa; Heilman, Keri J.; Porges, Stephen W. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2018
Individuals with fragile X syndrome (FXS), especially those co-diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), face many sensory processing challenges. However, sensory processing measures informed by neurophysiology are lacking. This paper describes the development and psychometric properties of a parent/caregiver report, the Brain-Body Center…

Mills, Caroline; Chapparo, Christine – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2017
The aim of this study was to determine the impact of a classroom sensory activity schedule (SAS) on cognitive strategy use during task performance. This work studies a single-system AB research design with seven students with autism and intellectual disability. Repeated measures using the Perceive, Recall, Plan and Perform (PRPP) Cognitive Task…

Sensory Symptoms and Processing of Nonverbal Auditory and Visual Stimuli in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Stewart, Claire R.; Sanchez, Sandra S.; Grenesko, Emily L.; Brown, Christine M.; Chen, Colleen P.; Keehn, Brandon; Velasquez, Francisco; Lincoln, Alan J.; Müller, Ralph-Axel – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2016
Atypical sensory responses are common in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). While evidence suggests impaired auditory-visual integration for verbal information, findings for nonverbal stimuli are inconsistent. We tested for sensory symptoms in children with ASD (using the Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile) and examined unisensory and bisensory…

The Presence of Migraines and Its Association with Sensory Hyperreactivity and Anxiety Symptomatology in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Sullivan, Jillian C.; Miller, Lucy J.; Nielsen, Darcy M.; Schoen, Sarah A. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2014
Migraine headaches are associated with sensory hyperreactivity and anxiety in the general population, but it is unknown whether this is also the case in autism spectrum disorders. This pilot study asked parents of 81 children (aged 7-17 years) with autism spectrum disorders to report their child's migraine occurrence, sensory hyperreactivity…

A Comparison of Patterns of Sensory Processing in Children with and without Developmental Disabilities
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Cheung, Phoebe P. P.; Siu, Andrew M. H. – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2009
This study compared the patterns of sensory processing among children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and children without disabilities. Parents reported on the frequency of sensory processing issues by completing the Chinese Sensory Profile (CSP). Children with disabilities (ASD or ADHD)…

Relationship between Social Competence and Sensory Processing in Children with High Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorders
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Hilton, Claudia; Graver, Kathleen; LaVesser, Patricia – Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 2007
Purpose: This study examines the relationship between social competence and sensory processing in children with high functioning autism spectrum disorders. Methodology: Children, ages 6-10 (N = 36), with high functioning autism spectrum disorders were assessed using the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS) and the Sensory Profile (SP). A bivariate…
