Abstract
Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs) impact approximately 2-5% of 6-7 year olds in the United States, affecting their executive functioning, sensory, and motor regulation. In this critically appraised topic, current research was reviewed to determine the effectiveness of sensory- and motor-based activities on improving sensory, motor, and executive functioning of children with FASD. Overall, there is moderate evidence for the use of these interventions with children with FASD, but there is a need for further research with larger sample sizes and randomized-control intervention designs in order to improve client care.
