Table 1_Active-touch texture/material matching and caregiver-reported sensory reactivity i

Thirteen adolescents with clinically diagnosed ASD and 13 age-matched typically developing controls participated in a pilot study examining somatosensory functions. The study assessed finger kinesthesia, two-point discrimination, graphesthesia, and a tactile-visual texture/material matching task, alongside caregiver-reported sensory features via the Sensory Profile. Preliminary findings suggest caregiver-reported sensory reactivity in daily situations may not be fully explained by objectively measured texture matching performance during active touch.

Use Cases

• Correlating caregiver-reported sensory profiles with objective somatosensory test scores.
• Comparing active-touch texture matching performance between clinical and control groups.
• Investigating the relationship between tactile reactivity and sensory processing quadrants.
• Evaluating the utility of active versus passive touch assessments in characterizing tactile function.

Strengths

• Includes data from a matched control group of 13 typically developing adolescents.
• Assesses multiple somatosensory functions: finger kinesthesia, two-point discrimination, and graphesthesia.
• Licensed under CC-BY-4.0 for open sharing and reuse.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The pilot study has a small sample size of 13 participants per group.
