Synopsis
This is an exploration of Sensory Integration Dysfunction, "the inability to process information received through the senses." The possible symptoms are bewilderingly broad. A child can be rambunctious, withdrawn, clumsy, fearful, hostile, ultra-sensitive, or lacking much apparent sensitivity, among many other unwanted traits. The three broad types are tactile (the sense of touch), vestibular (involving balance and gravity), and propriaceptive (dealing with ligaments, joints, and muscles). The author devised tables and checklists to help analyze a child's behaviors. She offers strategies for the child's
encouragement and recommends occupational therapy instead of medication as the treatment of choice.
