Abstract
Disability is the inability of a person with a health condition to perform at the level of their body, person, or society in one or more life domains when combined with external factors and the ability of the central nervous system to take in, process, and arrange appropriate responses to information is known as sensory processing (SP). sensory processing is very important for the functioning of the body yet very few studies have been conducted to understand the sensory processing ability of children with different disabilities. The aim of the study is to identify the type of sensory processing disorder faced by different children with different type of disability. 187 differentially abled children who were diagnosed with Intellectual Disability, Physical Disability, Hearing Impairment and Visual Impairment with their age ranging from 11 to 14 years old were selected from “Delhi Government school” as the subject for purpose of the study. Researcher has taken at most care for keeping the information confidential and ethical consideration were met by ensuring the informed consent and the identity of the subjects were not disclosed and therefore, codes were given to each subject. The data was collected using “Pearson’s Sensory Profile Caregiver Questionnaire” which is a standardized questionnaire made and standardized by Dr. Winnie Dunn. Since, the scholar had used a standardized questionnaire which was developed and standardized by Dr. Winnie Dunn. The researcher Sent the Caregiver Questionnaire to the caregivers with a cover letter explaining the purpose of the instrument. The researcher made sure that the caregiver completes the form in the office or clinic while the researcher evaluated the child. He also helped the caregiver fill out the Caregiver Questionnaire. the results revealed that in intellectually disabled children, children with Physical d isabilities, Hearing Impairment and Visual Impairment there is a probable difference in performance when it comes to Modulation of Movement Affecting Activity Level whereas when it comes Auditory Processing, Visual Processing, Vestibular Processing, Touch Processing, Multisensory Processing, Oral Sensory Processing, Sensory Processing Related to Endurance/Tone, Modulation Related to Body Position and Movement, Modulation of Sensory Input Affecting Emotional Responses, Modulation of Visual Input Affecting Emotional Responses and Activity Level, Emotional/Social Responses, Behavioral Outcomes of Sensory Processing and Items Indicating Thresholds for Response there is a definite difference in performance regardless of the disability.
