Abstract
|
|
|
Objective : The purpose of the study was to investigate the characteristics and psychometric properties of assessments which were developed to measure sensory processing functions of preschool-aged children.
Method : Comprehensive search for assessments measuring sensory processing functions was administered by using multiple electronic databases, including PubMed, Cochrane, CINAHL and PsycINFO. The titles and abstracts from the retrieved papers were screened. Then assessment tools that met all of the inclusion criteria were selected.
Results : Thirty-eight assessments were identified. There were eight assessment tools that met the pre-defined inclusion criteria. Sensory Processing Measure-Preschool (SPM-P) was verified to be the most reliable and valid assessment tool, whereas Sensory Experiences Questionnaire (SEQ), Sense & Self-Regulation Checklist (SSRC), and Sensory Processing Scale Assessment (SPSA) showed inadequate reliability and validity.
Conclusion : Based on the results from this systematic review, it would be useful for clinicians and researchers to select assessment tools of sensory processing for preschool-aged children.
