Autism Awareness Australia’s Post

Sensory Integration Disorder aka Sensory Processing Disorder impacts the brain's ability to manage and respond to sensory information, making some sensations feel too strong or not strong enough. This can make everyday activities challenging, but with the right support, people with SPD can learn to handle their sensory experiences better. #Accessibilty #Neurodiversity #SensoryIntegrationDisorder #SensoryProcessingDisorder #SPD

Interesting article which defies the assumption that half of children will be autistic by 2050. Neurodivergency is a different way of thinking to what is considered to be 'neurotypical'..This type of thinking is as valuable in the workplace and beneficial to organizations! #embraceneurodivergency #inclusivedesign

The groundbreaking results of the ACHIEVE study leave previous limitations behind and mark a new era in our understanding of the link between hearing loss, hearing aids, and cognitive decline. ACHIEVE is a large-scale randomized controlled trial designed to determine if treating hearing loss in older adults could reduce the loss of thinking and memory abilities (cognitive decline) that can precede dementia.

This new study investigated the association between #SensoryProcessing differences and alexithymia in autistic children and young people aged 4-17 years. The researchers found higher levels of sensory differences and alexithymia in autistic study participants in comparison to non-autistic participants. Over-responsivity was the dominant predictor of alexithymia in this study. https://lnkd.in/eX9bbVRd
