Effects of Systematic Proprioceptive-tactile Stimulation With Use of the Protac MyFit®

Children with sensory impairment (SPD) are often unable to sit still and focus their attention. This can affect the children by limiting their opportunities for participation in school activities. Previous studies indicate a link between childhood SPD, childhood anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in adulthood. Research and clinical experience suggest that systematic use of proprioceptive-tactile stimulant aids may have a positive effect for children with SPD. The aim of the project is to investigate and describe the effects of a systematic use of proprioceptive-tactile stimulating vest, MyFit®, for children 6-12 years with SPD in the form of sensory-seeking behaviour. Research questions: * Can systematic use of MyFit® for children with sensory seeking behaviour increase their participation in school activities? * Can systematic use of MyFit® support children with sensory seeking behaviour to increase their awareness, concentration and focus on tasks? * Can systematic use of MyFit® affect children's feelings of confidence and self-efficacy? The project seeks to answer these questions to contribute to knowledge on how children with sensory seeking behaviours can be supported for better participation in school activities. The study will be a randomized controlled trial of 240 children with SPD and sensory seeking behaviour.
