In Study 1, factor analysis of restricted and repetitive behaviours was carried out using the Repetitive Behaviour Questionnaire-2 (RBQ-2), completed by 120 parents of 2to 17-year-...

Background: This study investigated the impact of an intensive, short-term program that incorporates the principles of sensory integration and relationship-based therapies with extensive parent collaboration. The goals were to identify measures sensitive to change and explore the relation between sensory modulation characteristics and change in behavior after intervention. Method: A retrospecti...
