We sought to investigate the relationship between sensory processing and pretend play in typically developing children.
Forty-two typically developing children ages 5-7 yr were assessed with the Child Initiated Pretend Play Assessment and the Home and Main Classroom forms of the Sensory Processing Measure (SPM).
There were significant relationships between elaborate pretend play and body awareness (r = .62, p < .01), balance (r = .42, p < .01), and touch (r = .47, p < .01). Object substitution was associated with social participation (r = .42, p < .05).
The sensory processing factors (from the SPM)-namely, Body Awareness, Balance, Touch, and Social Participation-were predictive of the quality of children's engagement in pretend play in the home environment. The results indicated that, to engage and participate in play, children are involving sensory processing abilities, especially body awareness, balance, and touch.
我们试图研究发育正常儿童的感觉统合与假扮游戏之间的关系。
采用儿童自主发起的假扮游戏评估以及感觉统合量表(SPM)的家庭和主要课堂版,对42名5至7岁发育正常的儿童进行评估。
精细的假扮游戏与身体意识(r = 0.62,p < 0.01)、平衡能力(r = 0.42,p < 0.01)和触觉(r = 0.47,p < 0.01)之间存在显著关系。物品替代与社会参与度相关(r = 0.42,p < 0.05)。
感觉统合因素(来自SPM),即身体意识、平衡能力、触觉和社会参与度,可预测儿童在家中环境中参与假扮游戏的质量。结果表明,为了参与游戏,儿童需要运用感觉统合能力,尤其是身体意识、平衡能力和触觉。
