The document summarizes a study on sensory integration dysfunction in children ages 2 to 5. The study observed 5 children with known sensory sensitivities and found they exhibited behaviors linked to dysfunction in bilateral integration, praxis, somatosensory processing, and regulating emotions. Techniques like deep pressure, joint squeezing and tight wrapping calmed and grounded the children by helping them feel more connected to their physical environment. The study did not prove a connection between sensory sensitivity and other SI issues but suggests more research is needed.
