Identifying Associations Between Sensory Processing & Food Sensitivities

Food allergies and sensitivities.

Sensory Sensitivities of Gifted Children

Erin Grubbs is a master’s student in the Clinical Psychology Program, Missouri State University, Springfield. Gifted children often display sensitivities to their environment that vary from those of the general population. Data were gathered on 6to 11-year-old gifted children attending a public elementary school gifted program. Parents completed Dunn’s (1999) Sensory Profile questionnaire regar...

Food allergies and other food sensitivities.

Some people experience individual adverse reactions to foods that most other people can eat with no ill effects. These food sensitivities include true food allergy, involving the body's immune system, and various types of nonallergic food sensitivities.

Parallels between sensory and motor information processing

The computational problems solved by the sensory and motor systems appear very different: one has to do with inferring the state of the world given sensory data, the other with generating motor commands appropriate for given task goals. However recent mathematical developments summarized in this chapter show that these two problems are in many ways related. Therefore information processing in t...

Comparing Sensory Information Processing and Alexithymia between People ‎with Substance Dependency and Normal

Background: Sensory information processing and alexithymia are two important factors in determining behavioral reactions. Some studies explain the effect of the sensitivity of sensory processing and alexithymia in the tendency to substance abuse. Giving that, the aim of the current study was to compare the styles of sensory information processing and alexithymia between substance-dependent peop...
