We examined the effects of Light Box training on sensory processing, play and occupation of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
This is a single-subject study with a design of multiple-baseline across behaviors. The intervention proceeded with Light Box training for attention, fine motor, and discrimination. The assessment of each task-based area was carried out at all sessions of the baseline and intervention period, and the assessment of sensory processing, play, and social maturity was conducted through pre- and post-evaluation. The evaluation results of each session and the pre-post evaluation results were compared through visual analysis and trend line analysis.
In the results of each session evaluation, the inclination of the trend line increased drastically in the attention, fine motor, and discrimination, because the average score increased during the intervention period compared to the baseline.
In the results of the pre-post evaluation, the pervasive developmental age remained constant, while scores of the sensory processing-sensory factor(low endurance/ton) as well as play and social maturity increased.
Light Box training on children on the autism spectrum had a positive effect on the sensory treatment and work performance and confirmed the applicability of occupational therapy.
