Abstract

Objective: We investigated the relationship between gross motor abilities and sensory processing in typically developing children.

Method: Participants included children aged 18 to 36 months (N = 48). All participants were full-term infants. We assessed gross motor abilities based on the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM), and sensory processing characteristics based on the Infant/Toddler Sensory Profile (ITSP). The gross motor ability index was calculated using GMFM score which was estimated from the age. Pearson's product moment correlation coefficients were used to examine the relationships between the gross motor ability indexes and ITSP section scores.

Results: Our findings showed that gross motor ability may be related to oral sensory processing. The children who were more responsive to oral sensory processing tended to exhibit gross motor abilities below the standard for that age.

Conclusion: Gross motor abilities were related with sensory processing, especially oral sensory processing, in children aged 18 to 36 months.

18 ~ 36月龄儿童粗大运动能力与感觉加工的关系。

目的:探讨正常发育儿童大肌肉运动能力与感觉加工的关系。方法:参与者为18 ~ 36月龄儿童(N = 48)。所有的参与者都是足月婴儿。我们根据大运动功能量表(GMFM)评估大运动能力，根据婴幼儿感觉档案(ITSP)评估感觉加工特征。大运动能力指数采用GMFM评分计算，GMFM评分从年龄开始计算。采用Pearson积矩相关系数检验大肌肉运动能力指标与ITSP评分之间的关系。结果:大肌肉运动能力可能与口腔感觉加工有关。对口腔感觉处理反应更灵敏的儿童，其大肌肉运动能力往往低于该年龄的标准。结论:18 ~ 36月龄儿童粗大运动能力与感觉加工，尤其是口腔感觉加工有关。
