Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
Fifty-three kindergarten and first-grade students were screened to examine the relationship between primitive reflexes and scholastic performance. Overall, 100% of participants had retention of at least one reflex. Results indicated statistically significant relationships between reflexes and areas of academic performance. Further research is warranted to understand why reflexes are not being integrated and how school-based OTs ought to use these findings.

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
We explored and identified relationships among gastro-intestinal (GI) factors (i.e., stool status, abdominal pain, and diet status) and social behavior in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Understanding the association of GI factors and social behaviors and symptomatology may one day be useful in informing development or enhancement of social–behavioral intervention strategies for children with ASD with reported positive GI factors of stool status and abdominal pain.

Importance of Attention in Sensory Processing and Social Functioning in Young Adults With and Without Autism Spectrum Disorder
Authors: Elias Crasta Jewel , Davies Patricia , Gavin William J. 
Published: August 2021

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
Statistical modeling analysis reveal that attention skills mediate the relationship between brain measures of sensory processing (measured by electroencephalography) and behavioral sensory processing in young adults with and without autism. Thus, attention abilities facilitate brain mechanisms to better process sensory stimuli to perform everyday sensory processing activities and social skills. Results suggest that therapy emphasizing attention skills in autism can modify sensory and social participation.

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
This qualitative action research study explored the potential partnership of OT and social movements that work to end structural poverty. Limited research in OT provides neither an accurate analysis nor an effective intervention strategy for addressing and dismantling the structural causes of poverty in the United States. This research centers the narratives and expertise of social movements to provide an alternate analysis and path to ending structural poverty in the United States.

Authors: Brown Catana , Dunn Winifred 
Published: August 2021

Abstract
Date Presented 04/9/21
This study focused on item development of an interoceptive measure grounded in Dunn's Sensory Processing Framework and participation. Items were identified that correlated with their intended subscale. The resulting subscales had good internal consistency (Î± = .63–.88). These initial findings will be valuable for the further development of an interoception scale that OTs can use for intervention planning.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
A comparison between children with and without posttraumatic stress (PTS) symptoms found that children with PTS symptoms are at increased risk for sensory processing deficits in various sensory modalities, over and above the core symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder. These results emphasize that sensory processing should be incorporated into the routine evaluation of this population and point to the importance of OT trauma-informed intervention programs, emphasizing the sensory component of regulation.

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
Results showed that about 70% of the students had some stress management strategies. However, 19% of them experienced toxic levels of stress, 33% of them used negative appraisal for coping, and one-third of them showed clinically significant anxiety and depression, resulting in negative impact on occupational engagement. OT students may benefit from learning different types of coping strategies that promote development of resilience to better manage stress and reduce mental illness.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
Rehabilitation practitioners (N = 98) indicate it is very important to have specialized therapists and programs for pediatric cancer rehabilitation, yet only 39% of hospitals have a specialized program. Therapists rarely receive education during academic or clinical training on working with children with cancer, resulting in a lack of consistency in services provided across institutions. A pediatric cancer rehabilitation certification program can help promote an evidence-based standard of care.

Abstract
Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations.
Coaching models are considered best practice when providing services in early intervention (EI) programs. Although coaching is considered best practice, no true pragmatic definition exists to aid practitioners in implementation. Core constructs of OT align well with the principles of caregiver coaching to create interventions maximizing participation. This scoping review explored the conceptual and practice definitions of caregiver coaching in EI and the use of this model in OT intervention.
