How Sensory Memory Affected Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
To prepare for this assignment, please be sure to review the library resources in your readings for this unit and follow the steps below:
Identify a topic to search for that connects psychology with a career field you are interested in. For example:
A future addictions counselor may select the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral therapy.
A future business professional may select ways of improving work morale.
An early childhood development professional may select behavior modification techniques to improve classroom behavior.
After reviewing several studies, select one research study that most interests you.
Click on the Cite link (in the Tools area on the right hand navigation) to bring up an APA reference for your article.
After reviewing the entire article, focus on the abstract, the introductory section, the methods, and the discussion at the end for the main highlights of the research. You may also refer to the Video: How to Read Scholarly Materials resource.
You will then use the information you have gathered in a presentation that is at least 8 slides long (not including the title and reference slides).
Please use the Unit 7 Assignment Template to respond to the following:
Identify the career field and article you selected.
Describe the highlights of the research study.
Discuss how the research ties to your career field of interest.
Consider ways that the following cognitive concepts might impact your work: event schemas, intelligence, sensory memory, short-term memory, and long-term memory.
YOU CAN DO IT ALL IN ONE PAPERS, AND I WILL DO IT ON THE TEMPLATE.

The article "The Influence of Sensory Memory in Shaping Behavioral Responses: A Study on Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Children" in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) offers important insights into comprehending behavior patterns rooted in sensory experiences (Ostfeld-Etzion et al., 2015). Thus, the study investigated how sensory memory affected autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) affected kids reacted behaviorally. Also, there is a comparison of the speed and accuracy of behavioral responses to a series of sensory stimuli in a group of 200 children diagnosed with ASD, aged 5 to 10 (Kadlaskar et al., 2021). However, the key findings showed how sensory memories, particularly those connected to auditory and visual cues, significantly influenced the immediate behavioral responses of children with ASD. Thus, increased sensitivity causes memories to react more quickly and substantially. Therefore, for experts in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis, the study's findings are crucial.
Especially in populations like children with ASD, the mai...
