View Course Details Please note: exam questions are subject to change.


1.  The hallmark of Ayres sensory integration is:
  1. Individualization to the child's needs
  2. Constellation of principles that are not sequenced together
  3. Group skills
  4. Nourishment for the brain
2.  Why was Ayres sensory integration trademarked?
  1. Confusion between sensory integration intervention and sensory stimulation techniques
  2. The exclusion of OT from the evaluation and treatment of children, adolescents, and adults with sensory processing disorders
  3. The use of sensory integration techniques as a reward as a part of other behavioral based interventions.
  4. All of the above
3.  Components of Ayres sensory integration include all EXCEPT:
  1. Facilitates a just right challenge
  2. Treats the child as an active collaborator in the therapy process
  3. Supports and guides the child's self-organization of behavior
  4. Internal vs. external dimensions
4.  The core of sensory integration intervention (SII) is:
  1. Vestibular
  2. Tactile
  3. Proprioceptive
  4. Auditory
5.  The occupational therapist creates a context of play by building on the child's intrinsic motivation and enjoyment of activities. It facilitates or expands on:
  1. Object play
  2. Social play
  3. Motor play
  4. All of the above
6.  Examples of sensory diets include all EXCEPT:
  1. The Alert Program
  2. Zones of Regulation
  3. SII
  4. SticKids - Muscles, Motion n' Touch
7.  The Ecological Model of Sensory Modulation involves:
  1. Physiological/behavioral deficits
  2. External dimensions
  3. Internal dimensions
  4. All of the above
8.  The acronym A SECRET stands for:
  1. Attention, Sensation, Emotional Regulation, Culture/Context/Current Conditions, Relationships, Environment, and Tasks
  2. Attention, Sensation, Environment, Child, Reflexes, Ego, Temporal Organization
  3. A Sensory Experience for the Child involving Reflexes, Environment, and Temporal Organization
  4. None of the above
9.  Sensorimotor interventions assume:
  1. A child's motor system is unable to successfully operate with processing and integrating information.
  2. Child actually initiates, executes, participates in the task/activity.
  3. Inherently includes sensory stimuli but is not the primary focus or purpose.
  4. All of the above
10.  Hypothesis testing includes:
  1. Aligning the assumptions of the intervention
  2. Aligning with behavioral, neurological or physiological underpinnings
  3. Tracking performance with reliable observations, assessments, etc.
  4. All of the above
