Sensory Processing Measure

The Sensory Processing Measure (SPM) is a tool used by professionals to assess how children respond to sensory information from their environment, such as sounds, textures, lights, and movement. It helps identify whether a child's responses are typical or if they have sensory processing challenges that may affect daily activities and learning. The assessment gathers information from parents and teachers about the child's behaviors in different settings, providing a comprehensive picture. This information guides tailored interventions to support the child's development and improve their ability to manage sensory input effectively.
