Study type | Interventional |
Intervention(s) | [Intervention using the Sensory Room] 5.0 m^2 x 2.0 m Sensory Room was created in Kyoto University Human Health Science Building, and the research subject and a licensed occupational therapist enter the room one by one. Inside the room, a bubble tube, a music player with healing music, a weighted blanket, a beaded cushion, an aroma diffuser, aroma oil, tactile ball, and a hand massager are placed. At the beginning, the research administrator proposes sensory stimuli based on the A/ASP scores of the participants according to their individual sensory processing characteristics, and gradually encourages the participants to select and adjust the sensory stimuli on their own. The intervention time is 30 minutes. [Intervention using Sedentary Activity] Participants will be asked to perform low intensity activities such as knitting, origami, puzzles, reading, etc. in a seated position for less than about 3 METs. The room is the same as the Sensory Room and is lit under illumination. The research subject and the research administrator, who is a licensed occupational therapist, enter the room one by one, and the research subject freely chooses the work activity. The intervention time will be 30 minutes. |
