Background and Objectives: Impairment in the way of sensory information by the central nervous system can cause functional problems in all areas of an adolescent’s activities, including education, self-care, social participation, and leisure. Therefore, in the presence of problems in such activities, it is necessary to evaluate and screen for sensory processing. In the present study, the sensory processing assessment tools that cover the adolescent age group were investigated.
Methods: In this review, PubMed, Science Direct, Google, OTseeker, and Google Scholar databases were searched, and articles published between 2000 and 2022 on sensory processing assessment tools in adolescents and their psychometrics were selected. Keywords used included sensory integration dysfunction (SID), sensory processing disorder (SPD), adolescence, adolescent, assessment, measurement, reliability, validity, psychometry, environment, scale, and instrument.
Results: The assessment tools identified to evaluate sensory processing in the adolescent age group include the “adolescent/adult sensory profile” (AASP), “Glasgow sensory questionnaire” (GSQ), “sensory processing measure (SPM)”, “sensory response in autism spectrum” (SR-AS) questionnaire, “sensory processing scale” (SPS), and “SPM-second edition” (SPM-2).
Conclusion: The environment was considered as a factor that needs to be evaluated only in the second version of the SPM among the selected tools. The results of this review also showed that the only tool available in Persian in this field is the AASP, which does not seem to be a suitable tool for use in adolescence because the population studied in the psychometric evaluation of the Persian version was elderly people with dementia. Therefore, it seems necessary to prepare the Persian version and psychometric evaluation of an appropriate assessment tool for evaluating the sensory processing of Iranian adolescents.
