Relationship between language impairment and sensory processing disorder
… have found that children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and other neurological disabilities have abnormal sensory responsiveness patterns (Watson et al., 2011). Children with hypo-sensitive sensory profiles were found to have more severe language and attentional problems than those …

Colic in Infancy as an Indicator of Subsequent Sensory Processing Development
… a link between infantile colic and subsequent sensory processing development. Literature research turned up very few studies linking colic with later development of sensory processing disorder. Ten hypotheses, based on literature research, linked colic in the first year with later indications …

In-situ measurement of electrodermal activity during occupational therapy
… part of occupational therapy for children with Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) but therapists do not have a way to objectively measure how therapy affects arousal. We hypothesized that when children with SPD participate in guided activities within an occupational therapy setting, informative …
