Objectives: All individuals need to have the ability of appropriate sensory processing
for proper functioning in the environment and participation in daily activities. Moreover,
behavioral functions can be affected by sensory processing problems. This study aimed to
determine the relationship between behavioral problems and sensory processing in 7 to 10
years old children with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
Methods: This descriptive (cross-sectional) study included 60 children with ADHD aged 7 to
10 years, who were referred to a comprehensive psychiatric center. Short Sensory Profile (SSP)
and Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) questionnaires were used for assessing the patterns of
sensory processing and behavioral problems in the patients.
Results: There was a negative correlation between internalizing behavioral problems
(r=−0.426) and externalizing behavioral problems (r=−0.465), and the total score of sensory
processing in ADHD children (P<0.05).
Discussion: The findings of this study showed that some behaviors in children with ADHD
could be due to certain defects in their sensory processing.

This study aimed to determine the relationship between behavioral problems and sensory processing in 7 to 10 years old children with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
There are only a few studies that have investigated the relationship between sensory processing disorders and behavioral problems in children with ADHD.
In children with ADHD, there was a significant negative relation between externalizing behavioral problems, and the total score of sensory processing and its other subscales.
