Sensory Processing and Sensory Integration
Ayre's SI FOR
Focus
Individuals with sensory integrative dysfunction
Often used with children with autism
Function/Dysfunction
Function: Ability to integrate sensations within the process of engaging in their age appropriate occupations
Dysfunction: Sensory system produces an overreaction or an underreaction to a sensory stimuli
Theorist
Jean Ayres' SI theory
Neuroscience
Change/Motivation
Change: guided sensory input in the context of individual or group context
Motivation: inner drive of children to mature
Lack of motivation in children is common so creating just right challenge is important
Intervention Guidelines
Family-centered
Just-right challenge
Activities rich in sensation and promotes regulation of affect and alertness, postural control, and praxis
Specialized equipment for safety and grading sensory input
Group interventions with other children
Evaluation
SIPT battery and the subtests of the SIPT
Post rotary nystagmus
Sensory Motor FOR
Theorist
Neuroscientists
Ayres' Principles of Neuroscience
King's Principle of Faulty Proprioceptive Input
Dunn's Sensory Processing Model
Wilbarger's Approach with Sensory Defensiveness
Focus
Pediatric settings, adults with SI dysfunction
Change/Motivation
Change: Guided and graded sensory input to allow change to occur
Motivation: inner drive to continue developing toward greater maturity
Evaluation
Informal clinical observations
SIPT, SPM, TSFI, School Form, Dunn's Sensory Profile, SBC Test of Adult Sensory Integration, SARIB
Function/Dysfunction
Function: Ability to modulate sensory input and self-direct attention to relevant internal and environmental sensory dimensions of a specified occupations
Dysfunction: Sensory systems are not controlled internally or automatically creating a barrier to adaptive responses
Intervention Guidelines
Identify activities within the client's social and occupational roles
Group interventions using graded sensory based activities
Continuing education courses, Alert Program, STEP-SI program, Willbarger's Sensory Diets, King's SI Groups, Champagne's Sensory Modulation Program, Ross' Five Stage Groups
