Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of sensory integration therapy and home program intervention on the visual attention of children with Down syndrome.
Methods : This study used a single subject design for one child with Down syndrome, Sensory integrated treatment intervention was conducted once a week for 16 weeks, and home programs were conducted four times a week for 16 weeks. Changes in visual attention were measured after intervention in the target child.
Results : After the intervention, the average values of object gaze, object horizontal pursuit, and object vertical pursuit time increased compared with the baseline period. In object gaze, object horizontal pursuit, and object vertical pursuit, a section higher than the ±2 standard deviation of the baseline period was observed during the intervention period.
Conclusion : This study confirmed that the combination of sensory integrated therapy and home program intervention improved visual attention and visual perception in children with Downsyndrome, and it is meaningful that it presented an effective intervention method.
