- Abstract
- Background: People with mental illness often have a reduced ability to process sensory inputs. Previously, the link between the individual way of dealing with sensory inputs and sociodemographic factors has been investigated in mentally healthy people, but there’s a lack of similar studies for people with mental illness.
Aim: To investigate sensory processing patterns and their possible connection to age, gender, education, and occupation in people with mental illness.
Method: 30 people with mental illness had in a larger clinical study been examined with Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile, AASP, which is a self-assessment tool that examines how a person processes different sensory inputs in their everyday life. The instrument... (More) - Background: People with mental illness often have a reduced ability to process sensory inputs.

Aim: To investigate sensory processing patterns and their possible connection to age, gender, education, and occupation in people with mental illness.
Method: 30 people with mental illness had in a larger clinical study been examined with Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile, AASP, which is a self-assessment tool that examines how a person processes different sensory inputs in their everyday life. The instrument results in sumscores of four different sensory quadrants (Low Registration, Sensation Seeking, Sensory Sensitivity, Sensation Avoiding). Relationship analysis was performed with chi-square and the Spearman test.
Results: There was a statistically significant relationship between education and Sensation seeking (p=0.01), but there was no statistically significant relationship between the other quadrants and the sociodemographic data.
Conclusion: The knowledge can be used by the occupational therapist to better adjust the amount of sensory stimulus and increase compliance in various treatments and help people with mental illness towards a more active everyday life. (Less) - Abstract (Swedish)
- Bakgrund: Personer med psykisk ohälsa har ofta en nedsatt förmåga att bearbeta sinnesintryck. Tidigare har kopplingen mellan det individuella sättet att hantera sinnesintryck och olika sociodemografiska faktorer undersökts hos psykiskt friska personer, men studier gällande detta saknas för personer med psykisk ohälsa.
Syfte: Att undersöka sensoriska bearbetningsmönster och deras eventuella koppling till ålder, kön, utbildningsgrad och sysselsättning hos personer med psykisk ohälsa.
Metod: 30 personer med diagnostiserad psykisk ohälsa hade i en större klinisk studie undersökts med instrumentet Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile, AASP, som är ett självskattningsinstrument som undersöker hur en person bearbetar olika sinnesintryck i sin...

Syfte: Att undersöka sensoriska bearbetningsmönster och deras eventuella koppling till ålder, kön, utbildningsgrad och sysselsättning hos personer med psykisk ohälsa.
Metod: 30 personer med diagnostiserad psykisk ohälsa hade i en större klinisk studie undersökts med instrumentet Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile, AASP, som är ett självskattningsinstrument som undersöker hur en person bearbetar olika sinnesintryck i sin vardag. Instrumentet resulterar efter en sammanräkning poäng i fyra olika sensoriska kvadranter (Nedsatt registrering, Söker sinnesintryck, Sensorisk känslighet, Undviker sinnesintryck). Sambandsanalyser genomfördes med chitvå- och Spearmans test.
Resultat: Ett statistiskt signifikant samband fanns mellan utbildning och Söker sinnesintryck (p=0,01). Inget statistiskt signifikant samband fanns mellan övriga kvadranter och den sociodemografiska datan.
Slutsats: Kunskapen kan användas för att bättre justera arbetsterapeutiska interventioner. Genom anpassning av mängden sensorisk stimulans kan arbetsterapeuten öka följsamheten i olika behandlingar och hjälpa personer med psykisk ohälsa till ett aktivare vardagsliv. (Less)
