    Author: Wei BY, Wei YY, Huang F.
    Journal: Zhongguo Dang Dai Er Ke Za Zhi; 2009 Feb; 11(2):124-7. PubMed ID: 19222950.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: There are many factors affecting the sensory integration training (SIT) effects in children with autism. This study explored the influential factors for SIT effects in the aspect of the model of sensory processing. METHODS: Ninety-three autistic children aged 1.8-8.3 years were evaluated by the autism behavior checklist (ABC) and the Dunn's model of sensory processing. The SIT effects were evaluated by the sensory integrative schedule. The effects of sex, age, ABC scores and the Dunn's model of sensory processing were investigated by logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: Logistic regression analysis showed that ABC scores (Wald=6.768, <0.01) and the Dunn's model of sensory processing (Wald=13.549, <0.01) were influential factors for the SIT effects. The Dunn's model of sensory processing was shown as a more important influential factor. Sex (Wald=1.549, >0.05) and age (Wald=0.010, >0.05) were not related to the STT effects. CONCLUSIONS: The Dunn's model of sensory processing is a major influential factor for the SIT effects in children with autism.
