CANADIAN JOURNAL OF OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY 2012 FEB; 79(1): 60-63Summary: Background. Sensory processing problems are prevalent in children who have fetal alcohol spectrum disorder. It is unclear to what degree these problems are distinct from attention deficits as measured during the diagnostic process in these children. Purpose. To understand sensory processing in these children, which may assist with early identification and intervention. Method. The relationship between attention and sensory processing was studied in a retrospective sample of 26 Canadian children diagnosed with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder. Findings. A very low correlation (r = .02) between Short Sensory Profile scores and the attention deficit hyperactivity index of the Conners' Parent Rating Scales was found for the five- to ten-year-old children. Sensory processing problems were found in 81% of the children, similar to other studies of children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder. Implications. These findings can guide modifications of the environments, tasks, and approaches to children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder.
