Touch activates the orbitalfrontal cortex, which assigns value and determines if a stimulus is pleasurable or disgusting. Preferred surfaces for touch are smooth, soft, and non-sticky. Touch related to trust and relationships is processed slightly slower than touch to identify objects. A hug before public speaking reduces stress levels during the speech. Disruption of maternal touch in early life results in anxious behaviors later in life. Certain emotions like anger, fear, disgust, gratitude and sympathy can be detected through touch alone. Mirror neurons allow observing another's touch to simulate the feeling on one's own body.
1. The nervous system receives millions of bits of sensory information per minute from receptors and integrates them to determine bodily responses.
2. Sensory receptors detect stimuli like touch, sound, light, pain, temperature and chemicals, initiating nerve impulses.
3. Pain perception involves transduction at receptors, transmission along nerves to the spinal cord and brain, perception in various brain regions, and modulation of transmission.
Perception refers to how humans interpret sensory information from their environment. It involves both sensation, which is the initial processing of sensory inputs, and perception, which is the interpretation and organization of those sensations. Perception allows humans to make sense of their surroundings. The process of perception can be influenced by factors related to the perceiver themselves, such as attitudes and experiences, as well as factors related to the external situation and stimuli being perceived. Accurate perception is important for humans to appropriately respond to their environment, while errors in perception like illusions and hallucinations can lead to mistaken interpretations.

Pain is defined by the IASP as an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage. It has both sensory and emotional components.
There are several theories of pain including the specificity theory, pattern theory, and gate control theory. The gate control theory proposes that a modulating mechanism in the dorsal horn can inhibit pain transmission.
Pain pathways involve nociceptors transmitting signals through C and A-delta fibers to the spinal cord and then projecting through various pathways to the brain for processing. Modulation from the brain can influence nociceptive transmission in the spinal cord.
Perception of pain involves integration of signals in the cortex and limbic system. Factors like pain threshold and tolerance
The document discusses sensation and perception. It defines sensation as the process by which we receive information from the environment through our senses. The senses include vision, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. Sensory receptors detect physical stimuli in the environment and transmit that information to the brain. Sensation is the initial step in the perceptual process, but it is distinct from perception, which is our subjective experience of sensations. The document then focuses on sight as one of our senses, describing the basic anatomy and function of the eye.
Psychology plays a major role in pain management through techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy, relaxation therapy, and guided imagery. Cognitive behavioral therapy uses treatment rationales, coping skills like relaxation, activity pacing, and cognitive restructuring to help patients manage pain. Relaxation therapy creates measurable physiological changes that lead to feelings of calmness. Guided imagery involves imagining relaxing scenarios to lower pain and suffering. The overall goal of pain psychology is to help patients feel better, conquer pain, and lead a quality life.
This document discusses the human sensory system, including sensory receptors, pathways, and cortex. It describes the different sensory modalities and sensations.

Within the cortex, different body regions are represented in a distorted map called a sensory homunculus. The document provides details on various mechanoreceptors, transduction of stimuli to action potentials, and coding of sensory information.
There are several types of sensory receptors that detect different somatic sensations when stimulated. Tactile sensations like touch, pressure, and vibration are detected by receptors like Meissner's corpuscles and Merkel's discs in the skin. Proprioceptive sensations related to body position and movement are detected by proprioceptors in muscles and joints. Thermal sensations of hot and cold are detected by free nerve endings. These sensations are carried by either the dorsal column-medial lemniscal system or the anterolateral system to the brain. Each receptor is specialized to detect a specific type of stimulus, allowing the brain to interpret different modalities of sensation.
The document discusses the senses and sensory receptors in humans. It describes the five main senses - sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch.

1. The Sensory Systems
aWork together
aGive us accurate picture of the world and our place in it
aThe brain uses sensory info in an organized way
Sensory Processing
aIs the receiving and perceiving of sensory info
aUsually integration of sensory info is done without effort
aFunction of sensation is to aid in perception, the control of movement, and maintenance
of arousal
Sensory Processing
aComponents of Sensory Processing
1. Sensory modulation
2. Sensory discrimination
3. Praxis
Sensory Processing Processes
1. Registration
2. Orientation
3. Interpretation
4. Organization of a response
5. Execution of a response
Sensory Processing Problems
aPossible causes and theories:
•Do not adequately receive or process information from these sensory systems as
different wiring
•Genetics: quirkiness within the family tree
•Prematurity: immature/ disorganized nervous system
•Birth trauma, medical procedures, medically fragile all put one more at risk
•Deprivation
•Problems coexisting with other conditions
The Sensory Systems
1. Tactile System
aLargest and first system to develop
aTactile receptors throughout the body
aThis is the primary map of ME (homunculus)
aTouch is important as an embryo and after birth
aTouch gives us info and puts the boundaries in ME
2. The Sensory Systems

Primary function of the tactile system is to help one feel comfortable with self and
environment
aDiscriminative
aProtective

aMore input Needed Behaviors
(passive under responsive or active seekers)
aAvoiding Behaviors
(over responsive)
The Sensory Systems
2. Vestibular System
aIt is located within the inner ear and has strong ties to the auditory and visual systems
aIt is the primary organizer and modulator of sensory input for self regulation
aSystem is needed for balance, postural stability, muscle tone, use vision, plan actions,
move, calm and regulate behavior
The Sensory Systems
2. Vestibular System cont.
aThis input can either quiet, stimulate or organize one’s activity and alertness level
aIt is the strongest sensation
aIt puts the ME in my space

The Sensory Systems
3. Proprioception System
aIs the unconscious awareness of body position and important for postural stability,
motor planning and grading of movements
aReceptors located in muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments, and connective tissue
aFunction of vestibular system and proprioception system overlap as the prop. receptors
respond to movement and gravity
aCan not “overdose” on proprioceptive input
The Sensory Systems
3. Proprioception System cont.
aCertain prop. senses help with brain regulated arousal states and many of us use
different strategies for self-regulation
aProprioception and self-stimulation/ self-injurious behaviors
aProp. input can filter out other unpleasant sensations
aPuts ME in the picture- usable body map

A little about Neurotransmitters/ Neurochemicals
aDopamine: Activation chemical: makes us want to move, helps us feel focused, enables
us to concentrate
•is the pleasure chemical, is the chemical of the emotional brain center
•pressure touch with TLC enhances dopamine the fastest
A little about Neurotransmitters/ Neurochemicals
aSerotonin: this is the master modulator, makes us feel that all is okay and we are safe/
content
•responsible for working memory and for ME in the picture
•gets depleted under stress, can go into shutdown
•proprioception/ joint input/ heavy work enhances Serotonin which can enhance
Dopamine
A little about Neurotransmitters/ Neurochemicals cont.
aNorepinephrine: chemical for selective attention
5. •novelty triggers Norepinephrine
•contributes to the activation of fight/ flight/ fright response
•use proprioception/ joint compression/ heavy work to enhance activation of
Norepinephrine
Arousal levels and sensory
Arousal Levels and Sensory cont.
aTypes of arousal levels:
•low
•optimal/ just right
•high: often respond to sensory stimuli with a strong response, frequently in fright/ flight/
fight response, may remove self to get away/ may scream in fright with too much input
athose that spend more time in high and low arousal maybe constantly seeking or
avoiding input to regulate
Sensory Behaviors and
Sensory Strategies
aBehaviors we note with students often are proprioceptive: to get ME in the picture? To
get the chemistry needed?
asensory strategies will help with the chemistry (neurochemicals)
aHand flapping (proprioception): provide hand fidgets, wall/ chair push -ups, weighted
vest/ blanket
Sensory Behaviors and
Sensory Strategies cont.
aHead banging/ ear flicking (vestibular /proprioception/deep tactile/ rhythm): provide
strong movement/ proprioception as swinging, swimming, biking, use ball/ mini-tramp,
chair/ wall pushups
aHumming/ other vocalizations (proprioception/ vibration/ auditory): provide mini-
massager to mouth/ face/ ear, blow toys, calming music
Sensory Behaviors and
Sensory Strategies cont.
aExcessive mouthing/ chewing on non-food items (proprioception/ tactile): chewy,
crunchy-chewy foods, strong flavors of food, battery toothbrush/ massager
aMasturbation (proprioception/ tactile deep pressure): ball, seat inserts, jumping and
crashing, weighted vest/ belt
aSpinning self (vestibular/ visual): provide strong rotary movement on sit n spin, hold
hands while person spins
6. a Smelling (gustatory/ olfactory): provide strong flavors as cinnamon/ lemon/ peppermint
Sensory Behaviors and
Sensory Strategies cont.
aComplains about performing hygiene, clothing and food textures (tactile defensiveness):
provide deep touch input the whole body as wrapped in blanket/ sheet, heavy work input,
analyze clothing and food textures, social stories
aRocking –standing (proprioception, vestibular, rhythm): appropriate rhythmical
activities, seat inserts/ ball, movement breaks
aFecal smearing (vestibular, proprioception, tactile) very primitive reaction to identify
who/ where they are: heavy work, movement, deep pressure activities
aLunging (vestibular, proprioception): joint compression, heavy work, movement
activities
Sensory Behaviors and
Sensory Strategies cont.
aRocking in chair/ seat (vestibular/proprioception, rhythm): provide movement breaks, sit
on cushion/ ball, play/ sing rhythmical music
aTeeth grinding (proprioception, auditory, vibration): mini massagers, battery toothbrush,
blow toys, chewies, crunchy and chewy foods
aPhysical strategies for those that are more active/ difficulty sitting: cushion/ ball, varied
positions as on stomach/ standing (with marked off space), rocking chair, sit in small tent/
quiet area
Sensory Behaviors and
Sensory Strategies cont.
aFor those distracted by noises/ difficulty with auditory processing: ear plugs/
headphones, simplify directions, use gestures to reinforce verbal messages, visual assists
aDecrease distractions for those who are sensitive/ easily distracted: minimize all objects
around, store unnecessary items, turn lights on low, put work in hallway
aAttention getters for those who have difficulty attending: plan language activities after
gross motor time, preferential seating, use proximity and touch to help focus, soft voice
with expression, open windows/ turn on fan
Calming Activities
aFor those that are over active:
•Visual: dim lights, unchanging visual stimuli, quiet corner/space, preferential seating
looking away from doors/ windows
7. •Auditory: use soft voice/ slower speech, familiar, rhythm sounds, 60 beats per minute,
rain stick
Calming Activities cont.
•Tactile: items that are simple shapes, smooth, warm, familiar, soothing, wrap snugly
within blanket, neutral warmth is relaxing, being squished in a mat, steamroller

•Gustatory/ Tactile: sweet tastes and sucking are also relaxing
Alerting Activities
aTo wake up the system or provide one with what they seek
aAlways provide some type of organizing activity afterward (proprioception usually) so
does not become over aroused
