Detailed Description

After application to the YUGEM Sensory Perception Motor Unit, the child and family will undergo a preliminary assessment. Following the necessary interviews and psychiatric consultation, specialists will decide whether the child is suitable for the Evaluation in Ayres Sensory Integration (EASI).

Children who are considered suitable for the EASI assessment will be evaluated through a multidisciplinary approach. The data obtained from the assessment will be analyzed using computer-based statistical software, and the results will be reviewed by the specialists. Based on these results, the frequency, duration, and delivery method of sensory integration therapy will be determined according to the needs of the child and family.

Neurodevelopmentally focused therapy counseling based on Ayres Sensory Integration principles will be planned either face-to-face or remotely, as appropriate for the child and family. After this decision, a meeting will be held with the family to plan the child's therapy process. There will be a 6-month therapy-counseling process.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The Evaluation of Ayres Sensory Integration (EASI)
Time Frame: 4 Weeks
The Evaluation of Ayres Sensory Intergation test measures sensory perception, postural/ocular/bilateral motor integration, praxis, and sensory reactivity in a way that minimizes the effects of culture, language comprehension, and prior experience. The EASI tests are designed for children aged 3-12 and will be administered by appropriately trained professionals.
4 Weeks
Pediatric Sensory Profile
Time Frame: 4 weeks
This is a measure consisting of three main sections used in children. These are; sensory processing, modulation and behavioral and emotional responses. The subgroups of each main section (14 sections in total, 125 questions) are tested. This scale is administered by the caregiver.
