30 SPD Facts in 30 Days -- Fact #20
Diagnosis of Sensory Processing Disorder usually begins with screening, which is basically a professional search for red flags that indicate enough differences in development to warrant a more comprehensive assessment. If differences exist that are sufficient to warrant further assessment, evaluation will follow. In addition to standardized assessment, all comprehensive OT evaluations include detailed observations in a clinical setting to assess real-life movement and reactivity to stimulation. Most also include detailed interviews with parents and teachers. (From SPD Foundation's website)
