Abstract

Date Presented 4/19/2018

Atypical sensory response patterns in children with autism spectrum disorder and developmental disabilities were intraindividually stable over a 3-year period but in some cases evidenced a pattern of group-based decline. Further research is needed to explicate unexpected findings related to the role of interventions addressing sensory issues.
