A systematic review of the evidence for hyporesponsivity in ASD (2016)
Journal Article
Watts, S., Rodgers, J., & Riby, D. (2016). A systematic review of the evidence for hyporesponsivity in ASD. Review Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 3(4), 286-301. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40489-016-0084-y

Sensory modulation difficulties are common in children with Autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Whilst both hyporesponsivity and hyperresponsivity have been established in ASD comparative to typically developing controls, it has been proposed that hypore...
