Firmly rooted in Ayres Sensory Integration® theory, the SPM-2 builds on the original Sensory Processing Measure (SPM) and Sensory Processing Measure – Preschool (SPM-P), now covering a broader age range from infants to adults. This norm-referenced assessment evaluates function across the visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, gustatory, proprioceptive (body awareness), and vestibular (balance and motion) sensory systems, along with praxis and social participation.
