Neural mechanisms of sensory over-responsivity in youth with early caregiver-related adversity

Abstract Sensory over-responsivity (SOR) is an impairing sensory processing challenge prevalent across a range of clinical and neurodevelopmental populations, as well as those with experiences of early caregiver-related adversity. Despite its prevalence and impairing nature, litt...

Early sleep and sensory over-responsivity relate to insular functional connectivity with sensorimotor cortices and cerebellum in infants at varying likelihood for autism

Abstract Sleep problems and sensory over-responsivity (SOR) are common, co-occurring, and early emerging features of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Yet, the early neural mechanisms underlying these symptoms remain unclear. Here, we used resting-state fMRI data from the Infant Br...
