Autism Spectrum Disorder01:19

Autism Spectrum Disorder

187
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition marked by persistent deficits in social communication and interaction alongside restrictive and repetitive behaviors or interests. ASD is sometimes accompanied by intellectual impairment.
These core symptoms manifest differently among individuals, ranging from mild to severe. The disorder's complexity extends beyond its clinical presentation, encompassing a diverse range of biological, cognitive, and sociocultural influences.

Modeling in Therapy01:26

Modeling in Therapy

138
Modeling, a key technique in therapy, uses observational learning to help clients acquire and practice new skills by watching therapists demonstrate desired behaviors. This approach, rooted in Albert Bandura's concept of vicarious learning, plays a significant role in therapeutic interventions for various psychological conditions, including social anxiety, ADHD, and depression.
Participant Modeling
Participant modeling involves therapists demonstrating calm and effective behaviors in...

Operant Conditioning Intervention01:24

Operant Conditioning Intervention

101
Operant conditioning serves as a foundational principle in therapeutic interventions aimed at modifying maladaptive behaviors. Central to this approach is the notion that behaviors, both adaptive and maladaptive, are learned through reinforcement. By analyzing the environmental factors that reinforce problematic behaviors, clinicians can design interventions to weaken these reinforcements and replace maladaptive behaviors with healthier alternatives.
In operant conditioning, behaviors that are...

Behavior Therapy01:22

Behavior Therapy

96
Behavior therapy incorporates diverse techniques rooted in classical conditioning principles to address maladaptive behaviors and anxiety disorders. These methods aim to reduce avoidance behaviors, foster adaptive coping mechanisms, and alter associations between stimuli and responses, making them effective in a wide range of therapeutic contexts.
Exposure therapy is a cornerstone of behavioral treatment for anxiety disorders. It involves systematic exposure to feared stimuli, either in real...

Hypersensitivities01:30

Hypersensitivities

928
Hypersensitivity, also known as a hypersensitivity reaction or allergic reaction, is a condition where the body's immune system reacts abnormally to a foreign substance. Such substances, that cause hypersensitivity are referred to as an allergen, could be something typically harmless to most people, like pollen or certain foods.
Types of Hypersensitivities
Hypersensitivity reactions are categorized into four types: Type 1, Type 2, Type 3, and Type 4. Each type has a distinct mechanism...

Taste Buds and Receptors01:20

Taste Buds and Receptors

2.5K
Gustation, or the sense of taste, is intrinsically linked to the anatomical structures located on the tongue. This organ's surface, along with the entirety of the oral cavity, is adorned with stratified squamous epithelium. Evident on the tongue are elevated structures known as papillae (singular = papilla), which house the mechanisms for the transduction of gustatory stimuli. Four distinct types of papillae exist, each identified by their unique morphological attributes: the circumvallate,...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Developmental Psychology
  • Clinical Psychology

Background:

  • Sensory over-responsivity (SOR) is common in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), causing significant distress and functional impairment.
  • Limited understanding and interventions for SOR in ASD hinder effective support.
  • SOR is linked to co-occurring conditions such as anxiety, depression, and insomnia, impacting family life.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review existing literature on sensory over-responsivity (SOR) in autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
  • To explore potential interventions for managing SOR in individuals with ASD.
  • To provide guidance for clinical practice and future research directions.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic literature review of studies on SOR in ASD.
  • Analysis of theoretical underpinnings of sensory-motor processing interventions.
  • Evaluation of evidence for physical activity (PA), sensory integration therapy (SIT), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).

Main Results:

  • SOR in ASD is associated with anxiety, depression, insomnia, and impaired family functioning.
  • Four key interventions—PA, SIT, MBCT, and CBT—show promise in addressing SOR.
  • These interventions focus on developing emotional regulation and coping strategies for sensory stimuli.

Conclusions:

  • Interventions targeting sensory-motor processing can effectively reduce SOR behaviors in children with ASD.
  • Physical activity, SIT, MBCT, and CBT offer viable therapeutic avenues for managing SOR.
  • Further research is needed to optimize interventions and enhance support for individuals with ASD experiencing SOR.
