Key Features

• The classic, go-to text on sensory integration for Occupational Therapists
• Current theory and research based on the original work of A. Jean Ayres and applications of sensory integration to practice
• Case studies covering a wide range of age groups and diagnoses

New To This Edition

• A focus on current research on sensory integrative theory throughout the text, with two chapters devoted entirely to evidence, Advances in Sensory Integration Research: Clinically Based Research, describing the clinically-based research applicable in everyday practice, and Advances in Sensory Integration Research: Basic Science Research, describing a growing body of basic research underpinning sensory integration theory
• Case examples throughout, with several chapters entirely devoted to applying theory, assessment, and/or intervention principles in a case context, and a chapter describing intervention for a child with poor motor coordination, first through a sensory integrative lens and then through a Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance (CO-OP) lens
• New chapters that reflect advances in science and practice, including…
• The history and development of Ayres sensory integration over half a century
• The neurophysiology of sensory discrimination and modulation
• Clinical observations
• Assessing without the SIPT
• Use of the Fidelity Measure as well as STEP-SI and A SECRET models in practice
• New features to make the content easier to understand and apply, including “Here’s the Point” summaries, “Reflections of Practice Wisdom,” and “Here’s the Evidence”
