AIM
To explore relationships between sensory responsiveness, anxiety, and ritual behaviors in boys with typical and atypical sensory responsiveness.
METHOD
Forty-eight boys, ages 5-9 participated in the study (28 boys with atypical sensory responsiveness and 20 controls). Atypical sensory responsiveness was defined as a score of ≤154 on the Short Sensory Profile. Parents completed the Sensory Profile, the Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders, and the Childhood Routines Inventory.
RESULTS
Children with atypical sensory responsiveness had significantly higher levels of anxiety and a higher frequency of ritual behaviors than controls. Atypical sensory responsiveness was significantly related to both anxiety and ritual behaviors, with anxiety mediating the relationship between sensory modulation and ritual behaviors.
CONCLUSIONS
The findings elucidate the potential consequences of atypical sensory responsiveness and could support the notion that ritual behaviors develop as a coping mechanism in response to anxiety stemming from primary difficulty in modulating sensory input.
目的
探讨具有典型和非典型感觉反应性的男孩的感觉反应性、焦虑和仪式行为之间的关系。
方法
48名5至9岁的男孩参与了该研究（28名具有非典型感觉反应性的男孩和20名对照组）。非典型感觉反应性被定义为在《简短感觉概况量表》上得分≤154分。家长们完成了《感觉概况量表》《儿童焦虑相关情绪障碍筛查量表》和《儿童日常习惯量表》。
结果
具有非典型感觉反应性的儿童比对照组有显著更高的焦虑水平和更高频率的仪式行为。非典型感觉反应性与焦虑和仪式行为均显著相关，焦虑在感觉调节与仪式行为之间的关系中起中介作用。
结论
这些发现阐明了非典型感觉反应性的潜在后果，并可能支持这样一种观点，即仪式行为作为一种应对机制而发展，以应对因调节感觉输入方面的主要困难而产生的焦虑。
