摘要：
Children in congregate foster care are at great risk for behavioral manifestations resultant from trauma. This pilot study explores sensory processing patterns among 41 youth living in congregate foster care. A retrospective chart review was utilized to explore Sensory Profile data of children in two age groups. 88% of the child sample, and 92% of the adolescent group, showed atypical sensory processing. Preliminary evidence suggests an association between sensory processing patterns and constructs of attention, social emotional functioning and conduct. Understanding patterns of sensory processing can inform strategies for self-regulation and environmental adaptations to support participation in everyday activities.
