Relationship Among Attention, Sensory Processing, and Social Responsiveness Among Adults With and Without Autism Spectrum Disorder

Abstract Date Presented 04/02/2022 OT interventions for individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often emphasize areas of functioning such as attention, sensory processing, and social responsiveness. It is essential to understand the relationships between these variables to develop best-fit interventions. This study demonstrates that sensory processing plays a mediating role in the relationship between attention and social responsiveness with young adults with and without autism.
