Objective: The purpose of this study was to test the reliability of the Sensory Challenge Protocol (SCP), a laboratory procedural tool that has been used to discriminate differences in sensory processing between typically developing (TD) children and children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
Method: Electrodermal activity (EDA) during rest and in response to
sensation was measured using skin conductance. Skin conductance
measures were used to calculate ICC (Intraclass Correlation Coefficient)
reliability in 14 children with ASD and 18 TD children.
Results: ICC reliability during rest phase (tonic) for both groups was good to moderate (.65 - .73). ICC reliability during …
