The aim of the present study was to investigate the visual perception difference between ADHD children with and without sensory processing disorder, and the relationship between sensory processing and visual perception of the children with ADHD.
Participants were 47 outpatients, aged 6-8 years, diagnosed with ADHD. After excluding those who met exclusion criteria, 38 subjects were clustered into two groups, ADHD children with and without sensory processing disorder (SPD), using SSP reported by their parents, then subjects completed K-DTVP-2. Spearman correlation analysis was run to determine the relationship between sensory processing and visual perception, and Mann-Whitney-U test was conducted to compare the K-DTVP-2 score of two groups respectively.
The ADHD children with SPD performed inferiorly to ADHD children without SPD in the on 3 quotients of K-DTVP-2. The GVP of K-DTVP-2 score was related to Movement Sensitivity section (r=0.368()) and Low Energy/Weak section of SSP (r=0.369).
The result of the present study suggests that among children with ADHD, the visual perception is lower in those children with co-morbid SPD. Also, visual perception may be related to sensory processing, especially in the reactions of vestibular and proprioceptive senses. Regarding academic performance, it is necessary to consider how sensory processing issues affect visual perception in children with ADHD.
本研究旨在探讨伴有与不伴有感觉处理障碍(SPD)的注意缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)儿童之间的视觉感知差异,以及 ADHD 儿童的感觉处理与视觉感知之间的关系。
研究对象为 47 名年龄在 6-8 岁之间、被诊断为 ADHD 的门诊患儿。在排除符合排除标准的患儿后,根据其父母报告的 SSP 将 38 名患儿聚类为两组,即伴有 SPD 的 ADHD 患儿和不伴有 SPD 的 ADHD 患儿,然后让患儿完成 K-DTVP-2 测试。采用 Spearman 相关分析确定感觉处理与视觉感知之间的关系,采用 Mann-Whitney-U 检验分别比较两组的 K-DTVP-2 评分。
在 K-DTVP-2 的 3 个分量中,伴有 SPD 的 ADHD 患儿的表现均劣于不伴有 SPD 的 ADHD 患儿。K-DTVP-2 中 GVP 与 SSP 的运动敏感性部分(r=0.368())和低能量/弱部分(r=0.369)相关。
本研究结果表明,在 ADHD 患儿中,伴有共病 SPD 的患儿的视觉感知能力较低。此外,视觉感知可能与感觉处理有关,尤其是在前庭和本体感觉的反应中。在考虑 ADHD 儿童的学业成绩时,有必要考虑感觉处理问题如何影响他们的视觉感知。
