Which statement describes an adult sensory integration battery?

• A. Self-reporting: Dunn's Sensory Profile
• B. Informal clinical observations. Performance-based exercises
• C. Adult: Schroeder, Block, Campbell Test of Adult Sensory Integration. Smaga and Ross Integrated Battery
• D. Interventions for Children Using Sensory Integration Principles, Wilbarger's Sensory Diets

Answer: (C)

In adult sensory integration assessment, a battery means a structured group of standardized tests used to evaluate how adults perceive and organize sensory input and how that processing supports daily action. The statement that best describes an adult sensory integration battery is the one that names formal instruments designed for adults, such as the Schroeder, Block, Campbell Test of Adult Sensory Integration and the Smaga and Ross Integrated Battery. These are designed to yield a multi-method profile by combining performance-based tasks and observational components to assess modulation, discrimination, praxis, and the overall integration of sensory information in adults.

Self-report tools like Dunn's Sensory Profile can reveal patterns of sensory processing but are not a comprehensive battery. Informal clinical observations provide qualitative data rather than a standardized, multi-test package. Interventions or programs (like sensory diets) refer to treatment approaches, not assessment batteries.
