Publisher's note

Drawing on the latest research into the ailment, a guide to Sensory Integration Disorder describes the common condition, which can manifest itself in children by excessively high or low activity levels, problems with motor skills, oversensitivity or undersensitivity to sensations and movements, and other symptoms. Original.

Annotation

This is an exploration of Sensory Integration Dysfunction, "the inability to process information received through the senses." The possible symptoms are bewilderingly broad. A child can be rambunctious, withdrawn, clumsy, fearful, hostile, ultra-sensitive, or lacking much apparent sensitivity, among many other unwanted traits. The three broad types are tactile (the sense of touch), vestibular (involving balance and gravity), and propriaceptive (dealing with ligaments, joints, and muscles). The author devised tables and checklists to help analyze a child's behaviors and also offers strategies for the child's
encouragement--and she strongly recommends occupational therapy instead of medication as the treatment of choice.
