对自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）儿童的感觉处理和运动技能表现的研究有限。这项研究评估了ASD儿童与正常发育儿童相比是否会表现出感觉和运动延迟，并检查了感觉处理和运动表现之间的关系。采用短感觉量表（SSP）和运动ABC-2（MABC-2）对32例ASD儿童进行了评估。SSP测量儿童在日常生活中的感觉处理，MABC-2测量儿童的精细和粗大运动技能表现。总体而言，样本的SSP评分表明非典型的感觉处理和MABC-2评分显示与年龄匹配的正常人相比，精细和粗大运动表现较差。此外，样本的感觉加工得分与他们的运动表现呈正相关。结果表明，ASD儿童的精细和粗大运动困难可能与他们对视觉，听觉，触觉和运动刺激的延迟感觉处理有关，这一假设需要在未来的研究中进行验证。
Research to examine both sensory processing and motor skill performance in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is limited. This study assessed whether children with ASD would show sensory and motor delays compared to typically developing children and examined the relationship between sensory processing and motor performance. 32 children diagnosed with ASD were assessed using the Short Sensory Profile (SSP) and the Movement ABC-2 (MABC-2). The SSP measures children's sensory processing in daily life and the MABC-2 measures children's fine and gross motor skill performance. Overall, the samples' scores on the SSP indicated atypical sensory processing and scores on the MABC-2 showed poorer fine and gross motor performance as compared to age-matched norms. Furthermore, the samples' scores for sensory processing were positively correlated with their motor performance. The results suggest that fine and gross motor difficulties of children with ASD may be related to their delayed sensory processing to visual, auditory, tactile, and movement stimuli, and that this hypothesis needs to be tested in future research.
