15
Children who have sensory integrative dysfunction have a cluster of symptoms that are believed to reflect dysfunction in ______ processing of sensory input rather than a primary sensory deficit such as hearing or visual impairment.
CNS
16
Early signs of sensory processing problems are:
-oversensitivity to sounds or touch
-failure to make eye contact
-difficulty with oral-motor demands of suckling
-self regulation of arousal states, irritability, and colic
17

top-down approach
18
What are the 5 major areas covered by a complete sensory processing evaluation?
1. Sensory modulation

somatosensory
20
If Jason is having trouble writing assignments because he often rips his paper with his pencil, he is probably receiving insufficient _________ feedback
proprioceptive
21
Name some screenings/structured assessments of sensory processing and sensory based motor dysfunction
Can find these in Table 24-1 on page 488
22
Secondary neurobehavioral, motor, social-emotional, and cognitive proficiencies that are not functional in the occupational sense but are considered precursors for end products to develop normally
functional support capacities
23
Some clinical language referring to behaviors representing the class of sensory processing impairments termed sensory modulation disorder are:
tactile defensiveness, gravitational insecurity, sensory-seeking, and sensory hypersensitivity
24
Patterns of dealing with sensory modulation problems divide and are bounded by what?
1. A continuum of sensory avoidance to sensory seeking
2. A continuum of acting in accordance with threshold, to acting to counteract threshold
25
Postural system disorganization due to poor vestibular and proprioceptive processing, and impairments of complex midbrain or cortically controlled internal visualization and motor planning would be what?
Sensory-based movement disorder
26
Nystagmus falls under what category of dysfunction?
Postural-ocular and bilateral integration dysfunction
27
What tests help OT practitioners understand the child's performance?
The Miller Assessment for Preschoolers
The Bayley Scales of Infant Development-II
The Peabody Developmental Motor Scales-II
28
Children at risk for postural and bilateral integration deficits will experience difficulty with what tests?

Bilateral coordination items
Visuomotor control items
Upper limb speed and dexterity items
Strength (e.g., postural tone during writing or manipulation tests, play)
33
The three major processes in praxia are what?
1. Ability to register and organize tactile, proprioceptive, vestibular, and visual input in order to assemble accurate internal cognitive maps of the body and environment
2. Ability to conceptualize internal images of purposeful actions (ideation)
3. Planning of sequences of movements within demands of the task and environment context, including ability to program anticipatory actions within next few seconds
34
Ability to conceptualize internal images of purposeful actions
ideation
35
This allows the OT to control the speed of the spaceship (platform swing) that the child is in, and the location of the deflectors (objects to be thrown) and meteors (targets)
the "just right" challenge
36
If the child needs excitation, provide arousing activities such as what?
Jumping, fast movements on swings (rotational or linear), vigorous music.
37
If child seems overaroused, engage in sensory input that will promote healthy inhibition such as what?
Rhythmic linear vestibular input on a swing or physioball, using a chewie, sucking on a lollipop, or blowing bubbles
