Which statement lists interventions for children using sensory integration principles and Wilbarger’s sensory diets?

• A. Interventions for Children Using Sensory Integration Principles, Wilbarger’s Sensory Diets
• B. Interventions for Adults with Mental Illness. King’s Sensory Integration Groups
• C. Informal clinical observations. Performance-based exercises
• D. Self-reporting: Dunn's Sensory Profile

Answer: (A)

Interventions that use sensory integration principles for children, combined with Wilbarger’s sensory diets, embody the pediatric approach to modulating arousal and facilitating coordinated responses through structured, meaningful sensory experiences. This pairing is the best match because it names two established intervention concepts in pediatric OT: sensory integration-based activities that are play-oriented and child-directed, and Wilbarger’s sensory diets, which provide a planned sequence of sensory inputs to help regulate a child’s alertness and self-regulation throughout the day. The other options either reference adults, rely on observations or self-report measures, or describe generic performance exercises, none of which specifically represent the combination of SI-based interventions and Wilbarger’s sensory diets used with children.
