Relationship Between Directly Observed Sensory Reactivity Differences and Classroom Behaviors of Autistic Children

CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Results suggest a link between sensory reactivity differences and classroom behaviors, highlighting a need for further research using observational measures in special education settings. Plain-Language Summary: Differences in hyporeactivity for children with autism may play a bigger role in classroom behavior and learning than previous literature has suggested. This has implications in occupational therapy practice for how to tailor support for children with hyporeactivity differences.PMID:38602860 | DOI:10.5014/ajot.2024.050345
