Sensory integration...the ability to organize sensory information for use, results in perception and… synthesis of sensory data that enables man to interact effectively with the environment. Jean. A. Ayres (1972

Praxis

“the ability by which we figure out how to use our hands and body in skilled tasks like playing with toys; using tools, including a pencil or fork; building a structure, whether a toy block tower or a house; straightening up a room; or engaging in many occupations.”

A Jean Ayres 1985

Developmental Apraxia

“a disorder of sensory integration interfering with ability to plan and execute skilled or non-habitual motor task”

Ayres 1972

“ability to perform skilled movement impaired despite normal intellect and normal neurological findings”.

Gubbay in 1975 and 1979

“Problems in motor planning, clumsiness in execution, inappropriate actions, and difficulty in motor learning have been associated with apraxia in adults and developmental dyspraxia in children. Separate terms for adults and children are used to describe a disturbance of praxis-the ability to plan and execute a skilled movement - because the etiology and neurophysiology, behavioral manifestations, and evaluation and treatment of problems in praxis differ for the two groups.”

Goodgold-Edwards and Cermak in 1990

Praxis and Sensory Integration

“the neurological processes by which cognition directs motor action” Ayres 1985

“Praxis is the ability of the brain to conceive of, organise, and carry out a sequence of unfamiliar actions.” Ayres, 1973

Dyspraxia and Autistic traits in adults with and without ASC

Dyspraxia is significantly more prevalent in adults with ASC ; motor coordination difficulties commonly co-occur with ASCDyspraxia was associated with significantly higher autistic traits and lower empathy in those without ASC. The results suggest that motor coordination skills are important for effective social skills and empathyCassidy et al 2016

Praxis and LanguageLong-standing speculations and more recent hypotheses propose a variety of possible evolutionary connections between language, gesture and tool use. These arguments have received important new support from neuroscientific research on praxis, observational action understanding and vocal language demonstrating substantial functional/anatomical overlap between these behaviours.Stout and Chaminade 2012https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-b8KY4Y8-M

DCD and Dyspraxia – the terms we use…

“In reality, the definition of DCD is very similar to dyspraxia. A survey of health and educational professionals showed widespread uncertainty about the definitions of, and distinction between, DCD and dyspraxia. Furthermore, the rationale for using one or the other term in the literature has been unclear.Therefore, DCD and dyspraxia should be regarded as synonymous.”

Gibbs et al 2007

Dyspraxia, DCD and Mental Health

“Dyspraxia/DCD are considered to be one of the major health problems among school-aged children worldwide, with unique consequences to physical and mental health.“Caçola 2016

ASD

70% SMD Adamson et al. 2006

90 % of children with ASD have motor difficulties: this does not necessarily relate to functional impairment Green 2006

80-90% atypical responsivity Rogers & Ozonoff 2005, Tomchek & Dunn 2007

ASD

Christopher Gillberg’s team (Klintwall 2010) used informal assessment methods to identify abnormal sensory reactions in children with ASD and found high and consistent levels of impairing sensory problems from childhood to adulthood in almost all individuals diagnosed with classic autism

Pain and hearing were the most commonly affected modalities

ASD and Social Interaction

17

This work has been brought into the clinical arena by Barenak(2012) who was working on early intervention to address praxic skills in the context of social development

Mostofsky (2006) and colleagues have looked at the relationship between praxis and social skills and suggest that praxic difficulties in those with ASD directly impact on the ability to develop appropriate social interaction.

ASD

Children with ASD present with proprioceptive processing difficulties that are different to TP and those with developmental disabilities Blanche et al, 2012

Associations between sensory processing patterns and developmental domains such as adaptive behaviour and language Tomcheck, Little & Dunn, 2015

Classification of Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder suggests 2 categories: • Sensory hyper reactivity• difficulties with multisensory processing Lane A, Malloy C & Bishop S, 2014

Difficulties in maintaining postural control in infancy, persisting in later years Memari et al, 2014

ASD Adults

Autism Research Centre (Cambridge) study of sensory processing and perception in adults with ASC compared self reported sensory experiences in adults with and without SPD and found :

Adults ASC showed differences on all Dunn’s subscales:

• with more sensitivity to and avoidance of sensory stimuli

• lower registration and less sensation seeking

Adults ASC report more sensory sensitivity to touch, vision, sound, smell, taste and movement

Prevalence of ADHD and Motor Skills Problems• ADHD in children 6-18 is 8 – 11.4%

• ADHD in adults is approximately 5%

• Over 50% of children with ADHD meet criteria for Developmental Coordination Disorder.

• Exact prevalence of specific praxis disorders is unknown as it has not been examined

• Prevalence of sensory integration dysfunction in adults is 5 –11%

What do we know about ADHD and Praxis Deficits in Adults?• Little if any literature on praxis and adults with ADHD

• Links between ADHD and DCD in adults accepted

• Motor persistence and impulsivity primary problems

• Problems with dimensions of impulsivity including attentional, non-planning & motor impulsivity (Malloy-Diniz, et al, 2007)

What do we know about ADHD and Praxis in Children ?

Children with ADHD tend to demonstrate deficits in motor control aspects of movementExcessive variability in movement speed (Izawa, et al, 2012)

Reaction time, variability of movement speed, timing, aiming in complex motor coordination tasks, motor fluency in complex letter formation (Kaiser, et al, 2015)

ADHD and Praxis• ADHD & SIPT (Mulligan, 1996)

• Relative strengths in non-motor visual perception & localizing tactile input• Weakness in vestibular processing and most areas of praxis

• ADHD & Gesture Use (Dewey, Cantell, Crawford, 2007; MacNeil & Mostofsky, 2012)• Children with ADHD had decreased basic motor control but not gesture use

Ideation• May-Benson, 2005

• Children with ideational praxis problems demonstrated poorer attention and increased impulsivity

• Pfeiffer, et al, 2014• Social Participation (r = .50) and Planning and

Ideas (r = .73) subtests of the Sensory Processing Measure significantly associated with hyperactivity/impulsivity

Intervention: Coaching

• SAMPLE: 20 Parents of children with ASD

• FREQUENCY: 10 x 1 hour sessions over 12 to 15 weeks

• OUTCOME: COPM, GAS, PSI

• RESULTS: Parents felt more competent and children significantly increased participation in everyday life, suggesting that this approach is an effective occupational therapy intervention.

(Dunn,2013)

Collaborative Consultation • Is particularly effective in situations where creating a

more supportive environment will make a big difference to the child’s functioning

• When clients feel competent, are actively engaged, and understand the whole process, they are more likely to acquire the skills to analyze and solve future problems

Sensory input • Ball Chairs

Positive effect on in seat behaviour for the children who had the most extreme vestibular-proprioceptive seeking behaviour, those with poor postural stability where less engaged on therapy ball (Bagatelle, 2010)

Improved on task behaviour due to increased vestibular system engagement (Burgoyne & Ketcham, 2015)

• Chewing Gum – significant positive effect on concentration performance (Tanzer,2009)

• Touch – massage or touch therapy (4 studies): some encouraging evidence that improvements in target behaviours noted

Recommendations• ADHD DX often includes motor coordination and

praxis problems

• Screen for Dyspraxia (motor coordination and praxis problems)

• Refer for more comprehensive assessment with SIPT/EASI as needed

Intervention for praxis problems is important if someone is to be able to successfully participate and do in everyday life
