Low Birth Weight: Low birth weight is also considered one of the causes of sensory, processing disorder., , 3. Environmental Factor: Usually, children who are adopted often experience sensory, processing disorder due to some restrictions in their early lives or poor prenatal care, 4. Physical Cause: Research studies have indicated that individuals with SPD have, abnormal brain activity when exposed to certain stimuli. Individuals with SPD, , have differences in brain structure which provide a biological basis for the onset, , of this disorder., , Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Autism spectrum disorder is a disorder that, affects development. Here, the word spectrum, , refers to the range of symptoms and their, severity. Generally, the young children with, ASD have difficulties with communication,, language, social skill and behaviour. In, other words, autism spectrum disorders are, , characterised by social interaction difficulties,, communication challenges and a tendency to, engage in repetitive behaviours. As a matter of, , fact, children with ASD may behave differently, , A child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), , or repeat same activities over and over again, ike touching the same object repeatedly. However, all the children with ASD don't have the, same problems or behaviours. Usually, the affected children with ASD may show symptoms., , They avoid eye contact and prefer to be alone. They don't like to be embraced. They repeat, Words and actions. They feel difficulties in expressing their needs and emotions. They are, , very sensitive to taste, smell and sound., , Causes of Autism Spectrum Disorder, Fesearch studies show that there is no single cause of this disorder. However, the available, from different sets of casual, ata related to this field suggest that this disorder results, actors such as genetic and environmental., ienetie Factors; Genetic problems seem to play a significant role in ASD.
