Abstract
Abstract Date Presented 04/05/19 We examined the constructs of behavioral response and threshold of Dunn’s four-quadrant model of sensory processing. We tested if these axes, as measured by the Adult and Adolescent Sensory Profile, are ordinal ranges and if variation is consistent with external measures of characteristics that may also reflect sensory processing, Eysenck's personality model, and somatosensory event-related potentials and sensory gating.

Highlights
In 2007, Davies and Gavin tested the hypothesis that behavioral dysfunction in children with sensory processing disorders is related to dysfunction in brain function
All items on the test were reviewed by an expert panel of five judges to determine if they could be categorized into the four-quadrant model of the original sensory profile
The findings suggest that behavioral response axis of Dunn’s model may not reflect a construct with ordinal range, suggesting that behavior response patterns may not reflect a spectrum of characteristic styles
Summary
Dunn’s Four Quadrant Model of Sensory Processing is based on two constructs: neurological thresholds and behavioral response. The similarities in the verbiage of Dunn’s behavioral response aspect of sensory processing and the introversion/extraversion aspects of Eysenck’s personality model warrant exploration of whether the latter can be used to validate the former Sato, in his revision of the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire to create a brief version, summarized the Eysenck’s research on the personality dimensions of introversion and extroversion:. In 2007, Davies and Gavin tested the hypothesis that behavioral dysfunction in children with sensory processing disorders is related to dysfunction in brain function To do this, they used the P50 gating paradigm with children with SPD, as verified by Dunn’s Sensory Profile, and typically developing children. We compared variation in threshold to variation in somatosensory event related potentials and sensory gating
