Predisposition to be unaware of sensory stimuli, to have a delay before responding, responses are muted or responds with less intensity compared to the average personĭriven to obtain sensory stimulation, but getting the stimulation results in disorganization and does not satisfy the drive for moreĭifficulty with balance, motor coordination, and the performance of skilled, non-habitual and/or habitual motor tasks Predisposition to respond too much, too soon, or for too long to sensory stimuli most people find quite tolerable Summary of Sensory Processing Disorder Subtypesĭifficulty regulating responses to sensory stimuli Subtypes of SPD Explained Summary of Sensory Processing Disorder Subtypes Pattern 1: Sensory Modulation Disorder Sensory Over-Responsive Sensory Under-Responsive Sensory Craving Pattern 2: Sensory-Based Motor Disorder Postural Disorder Dyspraxia Pattern 3: Sensory Discrimination Disorder * Although SPD is described as one of the three primary patterns because a person can be affected in 1, 2, or 8 different systems it could actually be considered another 8 different subtypes, bringing the total number for subtypes to 13 (3 in SMD 2 in SBMD and 8 in SDD). The chart below shows the three major patterns and the six subtypes of SPD. Almost all individuals with SPD have a combination of symptoms from more than one subtype. Our current knowledge suggests that there are six subtypes of SPD. These secondary problems can take many forms and look different depending on the child and family context. If a person has SPD often the symptoms result in emotional, behavioral, social, attentional, or motoric problems. They may also have sensory-motor symptoms such as a weak body, clumsiness or awkwardness or delayed motor skills. They may feel bombarded by information, they may crave intense sensory experiences, or they may be unaware of sensations that others feel. People with SPD misinterpret everyday sensory information, such as touch, sound, and movement. Each person with SPD must be individually assessed and treatment never looks the same for different children! The person may have 1, 2 or up to 8 sensory systems involved and 1, 2, or up to 6 different subtypes. 8 6 or > 260,000 different patterns of expression of SPD. That is why SPD is so difficult to understand and diagnose. SPD may occur in each sensory system: Visual, Auditory, Tactile, Smell, Taste, Vestibular, Proprioception, Interoception AND symptoms may vary depending on subtype. The symptoms of SPD vary greatly depending upon the sense that is affected, how that sense is affected, and the severity of the condition.
