Abstract EN
Background.
Previous studies have explored the correlates of behavioural and autonomic regulation of response to sensory stimuli in children; however, a comprehensive review of such relationship is lacking.
This systematic review was performed to critically appraise the current evidence on such relationship and describe the methods used in these studies.
Methods.
Online databases were systematically searched for peer-reviewed, full-text articles in the English language between 1999 and 2016, initially screened by title and abstract, and appraised and synthesized by two independent review authors.
Results.
Fourteen Level III-3 cross-sectional studies were included for systematic review, among which six studies explored the relationship between behaviour and physiological regulation of responses to sensory stimuli.
Three studies reported significant positive weak correlations among ASD children; however, no correlations were found in typically developing children.
Methodological differences related to individual differences among participants, measures used, and varied laboratory experimental setting were noted.
Conclusion.
This review suggests inconclusive evidence supporting the relationship between behavioural and physiological regulation of responses to sensory stimuli among children.
Methodological differences may likely have confounded the results of the current evidence.
We present methodological recommendations to address this matter for future researches.
This trial is registered with PROSPERO registration number CRD42016043887.
