Sensory processing in people with Asperger syndrome
Some people with Asperger syndrome process their sensory impressions in different or impaired ways from most people, and so may be unable to engage productively in conventional environments. It is important that such people are provided with the information, skills and time they need to adjust to sensory input in these conditions. As a result of the public’s ignorance of, and failure to meet, the needs of people with Asperger syndrome, these individuals may fail to reaching their full potential in their personal lives and in society as a whole.
