Abstract

Introduction: Many parents with autistic children are worried about some of the clinical symptoms of autism disorder, including sensory impairment in their offspring, due to their genetic uniformity and healthy childhood and autism. The purpose of this study was to compare the sensory organs processing patterns of autism individuals with their normal counterparts. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive-analytical study, two groups of 17 healthy siblings with autism and 17 normal peoples in the age range of 5 to 12 years participated in the study. In order to assess the children;#39s parents, they were asked to complete a 9-factor sensor sensory status questionnaire for their children after obtaining written consent from the parents. Results: The results showed that there was no significant difference between two groups of healthy sisters or brothers with autism and their normal counterparts in any of the factors (p
