Sensory-processing sensitivity versus the sensory-processing theory: Convergence and divergence
Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 Two individual-difference theories focus on sensory sensitivity: one emanating from psychology—sensory-processing-sensitivity (SPS); and one from occupational therapy—sensory processing theory (SP).

A sensory intervention to improve sleep behaviours and sensory processing behaviours of children with sensory processing disorders [PDF]
Irish Journal of Occupational Therapy, 2021 Purpose – This paper aims to investigate if a sensory intervention of moderate pressure touch of children with sensory processing disorder (SPD) affects sleep behaviours and sensory processing behaviours.

Alexithymia and Sensory Processing Sensitivity: Areas of Overlap and Links to Sensory Processing Styles [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 Alexithymia is a dimensional trait characterized by difficulties identifying and describing feelings and an externally oriented thinking (EOT) style. Here, we explored interrelationships between alexithymia and measures assessing how individuals process ...

Unmet expectations delay sensory processes [PDF]
Vision Research, 2021 Expectations strongly affect and shape our perceptual decision-making processes. Specifically, valid expectations speed up perceptual decisions, and determine what we see in a noisy stimulus. Despite the well-established effects of expectations on decision-making, whether and how they affect low-level sensory processes remain elusive.

Layer, column and cell-type specific genetic manipulation in mouse barrel cortex.
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2008 Sensory information is processed in distributed neuronal networks connected by intricate synaptic circuits. Studies of the rodent brain can provide insight into synaptic mechanisms of sensory perception and associative learning.

Sleep, Sensory Integration/Processing, and Autism: A Scoping Review
Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 The prevalence of sleep dysfunction is considerably higher in the autistic population than in the non-autistic. Similarly, the incidence of sensory reactivity differences in autism exceeds that in the neurotypical population. The basis of sleep disorders

Monoaminergic Neuromodulation of Sensory Processing [PDF]
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2018 All neuronal circuits are subject to neuromodulation. Modulatory effects on neuronal processing and resulting behavioral changes are most commonly reported for higher order cognitive brain functions. Comparatively little is known about how neuromodulators shape processing in sensory brain areas that provide the signals for downstream regions to operate

Function, 2020 The brain processes sensory information in a context- and learning-dependent manner for adaptive behavior. Through reward-based learning, relevant sensory stimuli can become linked to execution of specific actions associated with positive outcomes.

Cholinergic Signals in Mouse Barrel Cortex during Active Whisker Sensing
Cell Reports, 2014 Summary: Internal brain states affect sensory perception, cognition, and learning. Many neocortical areas exhibit changes in the pattern and synchrony of neuronal activity during quiet versus active behaviors.

Cell Reports, 2016 Sensory processing in neocortex is primarily driven by glutamatergic excitation, which is counterbalanced by GABAergic inhibition, mediated by a diversity of largely local inhibitory interneurons.
