DEAF WITH ADDITIONAL DISABILITIES
• Over 40% of children with DHH have an additional disability
• Disability labels may change depending on what appears to be the most
impacting
• Placement drives program
• Academic placement changes impact overall growth trajectory
• Behavior is always a concern with this population

SENSORY SYSTEMS
Sensory Processing
Sensory Processing is the procedure in which we take in sensory information from our bodies and surroundings
![Page 10: Sensory needs and interventions for Deaf Students with … needs and... · SENSORY NEEDS AND INTERVENTIONS FOR DEAF STUDENTS WITH ADDITIONAL DISABILITIES CHRISTY BORDERS, STACEY JONES](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022522/5b31e6917f8b9a744a8c317a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

SENSORY INTEGRATION AND PROCESSING
• A process that involves organizing sensation from the body and environment
for use (Ayers, 1979)
• Sensory integration can be broken down into 5 components
• Registration
• Orientation/ Attention
• Interpretation
• Organization of a Response
• Execution of a Response
![Page 19: Sensory needs and interventions for Deaf Students with … needs and... · SENSORY NEEDS AND INTERVENTIONS FOR DEAF STUDENTS WITH ADDITIONAL DISABILITIES CHRISTY BORDERS, STACEY JONES](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022522/5b31e6917f8b9a744a8c317a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
REGISTRATION
• Sensory registration occurs when one first becomes aware of a sensory event.
![Page 20: Sensory needs and interventions for Deaf Students with … needs and... · SENSORY NEEDS AND INTERVENTIONS FOR DEAF STUDENTS WITH ADDITIONAL DISABILITIES CHRISTY BORDERS, STACEY JONES](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022522/5b31e6917f8b9a744a8c317a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
ORIENTATION
• Orientation allows someone to pay attention to new sensory input being
received.
![Page 21: Sensory needs and interventions for Deaf Students with … needs and... · SENSORY NEEDS AND INTERVENTIONS FOR DEAF STUDENTS WITH ADDITIONAL DISABILITIES CHRISTY BORDERS, STACEY JONES](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022522/5b31e6917f8b9a744a8c317a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
INTERPRETATION
• Our brain interprets and gives meaning to sensory
information
• The ability to interpret sensory information allows us
to determine what to respond to.
![Page 22: Sensory needs and interventions for Deaf Students with … needs and... · SENSORY NEEDS AND INTERVENTIONS FOR DEAF STUDENTS WITH ADDITIONAL DISABILITIES CHRISTY BORDERS, STACEY JONES](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022522/5b31e6917f8b9a744a8c317a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
ORGANIZATION OF RESPONSE
• Our brain determines if a response to a sensory message is necessary
RUN
![Page 23: Sensory needs and interventions for Deaf Students with … needs and... · SENSORY NEEDS AND INTERVENTIONS FOR DEAF STUDENTS WITH ADDITIONAL DISABILITIES CHRISTY BORDERS, STACEY JONES](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022522/5b31e6917f8b9a744a8c317a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
EXECUTION OF ADAPTED RESPONSE
• The execution of a response is the final stage of the sensory integration
process.
• A response is an action that generates the process to begin again.
![Page 24: Sensory needs and interventions for Deaf Students with … needs and... · SENSORY NEEDS AND INTERVENTIONS FOR DEAF STUDENTS WITH ADDITIONAL DISABILITIES CHRISTY BORDERS, STACEY JONES](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022522/5b31e6917f8b9a744a8c317a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

HELP!
• Describe a child you are currently supporting that is not learning at the rate you would like.
• Use descriptive terminology including specific sensory observations but please avoid names.
• Briefly list the interventions you have tried.
• Rate the child’s behavior on a scale from 1-5 for interference with learning. (1= rarely
interferes and 5= always interferes) in the following environments:
• School environment
• Home
• Dorm
• Community
![Page 49: Sensory needs and interventions for Deaf Students with … needs and... · SENSORY NEEDS AND INTERVENTIONS FOR DEAF STUDENTS WITH ADDITIONAL DISABILITIES CHRISTY BORDERS, STACEY JONES](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022522/5b31e6917f8b9a744a8c317a/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
DIRECT OBSERVATION
• Most accurate representation of the student's behavior
• Observe the behaviors as they occur in the environment
• Analyze the antecedents and consequences
• Use to predict when the behavior will occur and why it is occurring
(function)

WHAT IS YOUR REINFORCEMENT?
![Page 51: Sensory needs and interventions for Deaf Students with … needs and... · SENSORY NEEDS AND INTERVENTIONS FOR DEAF STUDENTS WITH ADDITIONAL DISABILITIES CHRISTY BORDERS, STACEY JONES](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022522/5b31e6917f8b9a744a8c317a/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
THE ONLY WAY TO INCREASE BEHAVIOR IS TO KNOW REINFORCERS
• Understand there is a difference between ‘liking’ something and ‘working’ for something
• Don’t tell me you can’t get the child to work for anything…this means you haven’t found
Alpha Omega
• Use sensory preferences for reinforcers
• The only constant is change– be prepared to make changes to the reinforcement list over
time
• Take them out of rotation– it’s a reinforcer, not an addiction (Diet Coke, coffee)
![Page 52: Sensory needs and interventions for Deaf Students with … needs and... · SENSORY NEEDS AND INTERVENTIONS FOR DEAF STUDENTS WITH ADDITIONAL DISABILITIES CHRISTY BORDERS, STACEY JONES](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022522/5b31e6917f8b9a744a8c317a/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
METHODS FOR DETERMINING REINFORCERS
• Ask the student
• Having the student list reinforcers in order of preference
• Observe the student
• Reinforcer sampling/Preference Assessment
