  • Title: Caregivers' Assessment of the Sensory Processing Patterns Exhibited by Children with Autism in the Gulf Region.
    Author: Alsaedi RH, Carrington S, Watters JJ.
    Journal: J Autism Dev Disord; 2024 Jul; 54(7):2693-2709. PubMed ID: 37171762.
    Abstract:
    This study explored the nature, prevalence, and developmental profiles of sensory processing disorders among children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The participants comprised 119 children with ASD and 30 typically developing children and their parents. The Child Sensory Profile-2 was used to assess the children's sensory processing characteristics. The children with ASD exhibited elevated sensory processing difficulties. Deficits were observed in all the sensory modalities among the children with ASD, except the visual processing modality. Age-related improvements were observed in most sensory processing domains, although non-significant differences were noted in three domains. These findings should enhance understanding of the sensory challenges faced by children with ASD and contribute to the development of individually tailored, targeted, and age-specific therapeutic interventions.
