Description

Chenyu Yan and co-authors link sense processing traits to behavior trouble in young children with autism. Their paper from 2026 draws on records of 127 children aged one to seven who got rehab training at a children hospital from 2020 to 2024. Fifteen sense traits across five senses were coded from parent forms, plus six behavior problems.

Balance and body sense seeking tied to frequent tantrums and stood as a lone predictor, with odds near four fold. Visual seeking tied to less of one trouble type. A forest model with importance scoring rated the joint worth of the sense set, and grouping found sense based subtypes with unlike behavior profiles. The authors pitch sense checks as a guide to care.
