Since sensory processing disorder is not an officially recognized neurological condition, there are no formal diagnostic criteria. Some professionals use a sensory integration questionnaire to better understand a child’s sensory processing along with the sensory integration praxis test.
You should consult a doctor if you see any of these signs:
- Everyday life is disrupted by the behavior
- Symptoms are difficult to manage
- Reactions have become impossible to control
- Learning is impacted by sensory issues
