...Sensory Processing Disorder also known as sensory Integration Dysfunction- is still in the process of becoming widely accepted and treated by all professionals. Even though the theories have been around for almost four decades, much still needs to be done before the word has reached the millions affected by this neurological disorder. The quality of food can be assessed from different points of view. It is talk about the concerned with sensory quality from the perspective of consumers. This is a very important issue for food industries since they are aiming to adapt their production process to improve the acceptability of their specialties. Thus they need to discover the relationship between product description and consumers sensory degree of satisfaction an excellent survey of the use of sensory data analysis in the food industry can be found in (1:) for a machine learning perspective, from a conceptual point of view, sensory data can include the assessment of food products provided by two different kinds of groups of people usually called panels.

...Summary ”Dusk over Atlantic wharf” is about an Indian girl ‘Lata, ‘who lives in Cardiff. ‘She is not keen on being in Wales, as she has only lived ‘there with her husband, Anuj, for ‘about two months. ‘As the story begins, she finds the day ‘dull. Thus, Anuj takes her to ‘the cinema in order to watch a “Bollywood” ‘film. There, she is confronted with ‘Welsh culture as she spots both young Welsh ‘girls and a diverse Welsh population ‘in the cinema hall. As ‘Lata and Anuj watch the movie, the ‘division ‘between the couple becomes increased. ‘She is quite attentive ‘when she discovers places within the ‘film which she knows from ‘her life in India. However, Anuj does not find ‘this thrilling. When the couple leaves the cinema; ‘Lata finally bursts into tears as she realises ‘that Cardiff is now her new home. Characterization of Lata and her relationship with Anuj. When one ‘faces an unfamiliar culture, one may become unconscious about one’s appearance and future life. The description above ‘somehow indicates what Lata is going through ‘when facing her new existence; “She walked to the window. ‘The sky loomed large and grey over the chimney ‘tops and television aerials. Lata missed the drama of ‘colours played out in the sky. She observed it had ‘been the same dull grey throughout the day. Just like the ‘bed sheets back home – after they had come ‘back from dhobi” From this quote, one gets ‘the impression that the Welsh weather acts ‘like some kind of metaphor. Thus, it gives...

...Critical thinking on a decline. What is critical thinking? Critical thinking is the art of thinking about thinking with a view to improving it. Critical thinkers seek to improve thinking. As students, spend more time on computers, smartphones, and the internet they fail to see the risks they are taking and the damage that has been done. Technology plays a big role in our lives; our skills in critical thinking and analysis have declined, while our visual skills have improved, according to research by Patricia Greenfield UCLA Professor. Students who read for pleasure enhances their thinking and engages their imagination in a way that visuals do not. Studies show that reading develops imagination, induction, reflection and critical thinking, as vocabulary. (Greenfield). Many teachers are seeing a decline in children’s writing skills. With so much of their education being online, the use of handwriting and general writing skills are being ignored. Cursive handwriting has become a pastime. As students spend more time with visual media and less time with print, evaluation methods that include visual media will give a better picture of what they actually know, said (Greenfield). By using more visual media, students will process information better, she said. However, most visual media are real-time media that do not allow time to reflection, analysis or imagination; those are not developed by real-time such as television or video games. Schools should ensure that students have the...

...Sensory Information Accuracy or Inaccuracy of Sensory Information For thousands of years, humans have asked if we perceive the world accurately through our senses. You sometimes think you hear or see things that are not there. The sense of smell can be overwhelming in a good or bad way. Three reasons I believe in the accuracy of sensory information is one, our senses are the best way for us to function in the world, you need all senses working together and three, it’s hard to disprove what your senses tell you. First, it is believed that sensory information is one of the first areas to fully develop in an infant's brain. We rarely stop to think how important our five senses are in terms of providing us with information about the world. For example, our senses tell us when there is a bug crawling up our leg, if we are going to fall, and whether there is smoke in the room. Without the ability to see, hear, touch, smell, and taste we would live in complete isolation, unable to not only sense, but also to think and learn due to a lack of experience with which to develop ideas. When we discuss sensory integration we add to it the two senses of vestibular (Reponses to movement) and proprioception (body awareness). Each sensory system has its own specific receptor that specializes in optimal responses to a specific type of sensation. Because seeing is so important for our functioning in the world, efforts to understand how perceptions are generated have most...

...Sensory processing disorder is estimated to affect at least 16% of children in school (Chang..). What is sensory processing disorder, or SPD, and how is it different than autism or other processing disorders? A. Jean Ayres is credited with being the pioneer of sensory integration disorder. She developed much of the theory, assessment and treatment methods. "Sensory integration allows us to better organize our senses that we are taking in, and turn them into appropriate responses. Being able to accurately organize the sensory input from the environment is where children with sensory issues struggle, not with the information itself” (Lonkar, 2014) making the goal of sensory integration “to improve the accuracy of how children process sensory...

...Introduction: In this essay with the research that I have conducted I will provide three reason in the accuracy of sensory information. Also describing the three factors contributing to the accuracy of sensory data. Futhermore you will see the many roles in nature and nurture with regard to the interpretation and evaluation of sensory data. Active listening is a person’s ability and willingness to listen and understand. Often we people talk to each other. We might not listen at a time because lack of attentiveness, which can distract the speaker. In way active listening can be called as responding to another person that develops mutual understanding. Active listening is process in which the listener paraphrases in its own words what the speaker had said to confirm or clarify of accuracy of the message. “Active listening involves listening with your head and your heart; that is, you listen to the content of the message but also the feelings behind the message. The skill of active listening involves paying attention with empathy to the listener, as opposed to distracted denying, cynical or ostrich behavior. (Hogan, 2000) Children and adults with autism, as well as those with other developmental disabilities, may have a dysfunctional sensory system. Sometimes one or more senses are either over- or under-reactive to stimulation. Such sensory problems may be the underlying reason for such behaviors as rocking, spinning, and hand-flapping. Although the receptors for the senses...

...unwillingness to comply. However, the person may not be able to retrieve the meaning of the sound at that particular time. Eric Courchesne of the University of California at San Diego has found significant impairments in auditory processing in autistic individuals using P300 brain wave technology (see Courchesne, 1987 for a review). The P300 brain wave occurs 300 milli-seconds after the presentation of a stimulus. (The ‘P’ refers to the positive polarity of the brain wave.) The P300 is associated with cognitive processing, and this brain wave is considered an indication of long-term memory retrieval (Donchin, Ritter, & McCallum, 1978). Edelson et al. (1999) examined auditory P300 activity prior to and three months following auditory integration training (AIT). Three autistic individuals participated in the experimental AIT group and two autistic individuals participated in a placebo group. Prior to AIT, all five individuals had abnormal auditory P300 activity, indicating an auditory processing problem. Three months following AIT, the results showed dramatic improvement in P300 activity for those who received AIT (i.e., a normalization of P300 activity) and found no change in those who received the placebo. We do not know the underlying reason for auditory processing problems in autism; however, autopsy research by Drs. Bauman and Kemper have shown that an area in the limbic system, the hippocampus, is neurologically immature...

...Subjects: Patients were examined by the treating chiropractor from his existing patient pool. Methods: Chiropractic management was decided on by the treating chiropractor. A series of twelve tests were designed to discover disorders of functional systems within the CNS. The tests described were to evaluate the function of 12 systems: 1) spinal cord, 2) myelencephalon/reticular formation, 3) vagal system, 4) trigeminal motor system-muscles of mastication, 5) vestibulospinal system, and bulbo reticular area, 6) reticular formation, 7) diencephalons and gait locomotion system, 8) mesencephalon, 9) cardiac sympathetic autonomic system, 10) pyramidal system, 11) limbic system, 12) sensory system. Results: This chiropractic approach tests the nervous system after provocation of functional systems instead of sensory challenges to more discreet portions of the body. Conclusion: For chiropractic patients who are not responding to discreet treatment programs, this method of evaluation may be valuable as it tests underlying system problems within the CNS. Nearly all the functional systems have a related motor activity that results in inhibition and facilitation patterns. Case series...

...Neuropsychological aspects of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Abstract Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric condition affecting about 2% of the population. Subjects with OCD typically suffer from recurring intrusive, unsettling thoughts and repetitive, ritualistic behaviors. This essay discusses the neuroanatomical, neurophysiological and neural psychological aspects of obsessive compulsive disorder. A range of studies have identified several regions within the brain thought to contribute to the disorder including the orbitofrontal cortex, important in reward based learning, the anterior cingulate cortex, important in error detection, the basal nuclei, involved in motor control, and the thalamus, involved in processing and relaying sensory information. These regions form part of larger neural circuits which could be responsible for the disorder. OCD causes a number of cognitive deficits in its sufferers, from problems in self-perception and regulation to memory and planning deficits. The Neuroanatomical, Neurophysiological and Neuropsychological aspects of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric disorder thought to affect between 2% to 3% of the population (Koprivovaa et al., 2011) marked, as its name suggests, by recurrent intrusive thoughts which produce anxiety usually with repetitive ritualistic behaviors intended to reduce or neutralize this anxiety. Compulsive actions can include checking, counting or repetition, ordering...

...Autism Do you believe that Autism may be caused by a specific thing? Is it possible that there is a specific gene that may be present in children that have been diagnosed with Autism, which may make them more vulnerable or likely to develop Autism? Maybe Autism can develop from a vaccine or from vaccine sensitivity? Scientific research has shown that there is no direct link between the two, however how else would you explain, an otherwise perfectly developing child one day, to a child who is withdrawn and completely different the next? Because the actual cause of Autism is not known, in this paper, I will explore some of the probable causes, the signs and symptoms, as well as the treatment options that are available to a family, which may suspect their child may be suffering from Autism. Autism is a developmental disorder that is diagnosed within the ages of 1-3. Children diagnosed with Autism are known to have social and communication disorders. The exact cause is unknown, but according to the Center for Disease Control, there are some suspected causes, which include, diet, digestive changes, mercury poisoning, and vaccine sensitivity. The rising number is not known if it is due to an actual rise in cases, or if it is because, it is now much easier to diagnose the disease. Autism does affect more boys than girls. There is no link between lifestyle, income levels or education to having a child with autism. (http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines). Studies show that some children do...

...Name: Santos, Cezar John S. Yr/Course: BSED – MAPE – 3 History of Special Education: Although there are isolated examples of caring for and treating disabled individuals in ancient Greece and Rome, early societies typically shunned people who differed from the norm. During the middle Ages the church became the first institution to provide care for physically or mentally impaired people, but the development of techniques associated with special education did not emerge until the Renaissance, with its emphasis on human dignity. In the mid-1500s Pedro Ponce de León succeeded in teaching deaf pupils in Spain to speak, read, and write; it is assumed that his methods were followed by Juan Pablo Bonet, who in 1620 published the first book on the subject. This gave rise to a wider European interest in the education of deaf individuals. In 17th-century England John Bulwer published an account of his experiences teaching deaf persons to speak and lip-read, and in France similar work was carried on by Charles-Michel, abbé de l’Epée (1712–89), who changed the nature of communication for deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals by developing the natural sign language they used into a systematic and conventional language for more universal use. His work was developed by Roch-Ambroise Cucurron, Abbé Sicard, and gave rise to the manual system, or silent method, of teaching people with hearing impairments. In Germany Samuel Heinicke experimented with training deaf children to speak, and in...

...autistic child does not like to be held and will wiggle and sometimes fight from being held. Language and communication problems are an issue with the autistic child, many times they are non-verbal or will repeat words. "Autism is also marked by limited imaginative play and very repetitive and rigid behavior." (Comer, R. J. 2005)Sometimes the autistic child have movements that do not appear normal to others, but it is the repeatedly behavior that the autistic child will do to calm themselves. Sensory issues to materials, sounds, and stimuli. "Sometimes the individuals seem over stimulated by sights and sounds and to be trying to block them out, while at other times they seem under stimulated and to be performing self-stimulatory actions.". (Comer, R. J. 2005) 2. Which explanation for autism is no longer considered valid and lacks research support? There are a few explanations for autism, which are no longer considered valid. At first, theorists thought that family dysfunction and social stress were the primary causes of autism. . (Comer, R. J. 2005)At one time, it was thought that autism could have been caused by social and environmental stress." Investigators who have compared children with autism to children without the disorder have found no differences in the rate of parental death, divorce, separation, financial problems, or environmental stimulation." (Cox et al., 1975). (Comer, R. J. 2005) (Comer, R. J. 2005)Some theorists state that it could be caused by central...
