SPA subscales and subscores and incidence of sensory processing disorder.

** Median (IQ) *** N (%) with Abnormal Scores
Hyperresponsiveness .11 (0–0.2) 6 (19%)
 Social .5 (0–1.0) 5 (16%)
 Non-social 0 (0–0) 2 (6%)
Hyporesponsiveness 1.5 (1.0–2.0) 7 (22%)

 Non-social 1.3 (1.0–2.0) 6 (19%)
Defensive 0 (0–0.1) 8 (25%)
 Social 0 (0–0) 1 (3%)
 Non-social 0 (0–0.2) 0 (0%)
*Sensory Processing Disorder 16 (50%)
*

Sensory processing disorder defined as having any one score above the 75th percentile in any SPA subscale or subscore.

**

Higher scores indicate poorer performance or more abnormality.

***

Abnormal scores were determined from frequencies and distributions of raw scores within each SPA subscale and subscore, with abnormal scores identified among those scoring >75th percentile on each subscale or subscore.
