Objective: To identify the effectiveness of a short-term intensive intervention program on the improvement of adaptive response of a child with mixed sensory integration disorder.
Method: Four and half years old boy who has been diagnosed of PDD received 40 min of one intervention session and 50 min of 3 intervention sessions. The intervention was a part of the 2008 Sensory Integration Treatment Course developed by the Korean Academy of Sensory Integration (KASI) and all sessions were implemented under supervision by experts.
Result: Adaptive responses of the child were enhanced throughout the intervention process in terms of postural response and peer interaction. His oral defensiveness is improved. As the intervention progressed, he exhibited more active movements, louder voice, and coherence within peer group.
Conclusion: This case report demonstrates effectiveness of a short-term intensive intervention program in terms of improving adaptive response. To enrich the effectiveness, tt is suggested to educate parents about neurological base of the child’s behaviors so the they understand the importance of various sensory experience within play.
