Purpose Autism spectrum disorder is a kind of neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent deficits in social communication and interaction across multiple contexts, and restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests or activities. The purpose of this paper is to determine the effectiveness of sensory integration intervention on emotional-behavioral problems in children with autism spectrum disorder. Design/methodology/approach This research was conducted in a pretest-posttest design with control group. The participants were 30 children with autism spectrum disorder (6–11 years old) who were selected through convenience sampling from among children with autism spectrum disorder in Zeinab center of Isfahan and were randomly divided into two groups of 15 subjects. The children of the experimental group received 14 sessions of sensory integration intervention while the control group did not receive this intervention. To measure emotional-behavioral problems, the Behavior Assessment System for Children-Second Edition was used. To analyze the data, ANCOVA and MANCOVA tests were used. Findings The results showed that sensory integration intervention improves emotional-behavioral problems and its subscales (hyperactivity, aggression, behavioral problems, anxiety, depression, somatization, attention problems, learning difficulties, atypicality and withdrawal) in children with autism spectrum disorder. Research limitations/implications Therefore, it can be concluded that sensory integration intervention can be a suitable treatment for reducing sensory problems and improving emotional-behavioral problems in children with autism spectrum disorder. Originality/value The study of the effect of sensory integration on emotional-behavioral problems in children with autism spectrum disorder is necessary as a simple and non-side-effect educational and therapeutic method, both as a step to fill the research gap in this field, besides being a cheap and affordable way for improving the various skills of children with autism spectrum disorder for professionals, teachers, parents and educators.

O terapeuta ocupacional é um profissional importante no tratamento de crianças com Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA), dada a frequência de disfunção de integração sensorial. Durante a pandemia do Covid-19, o isolamento social ocasionou que crianças com TEA vivenciassem a interrupção do atendimento presencial, gerando prejuízos em suas ocupações. Dessa forma, buscou-se descrever a atuação do Terapeuta Ocupacional no Telemonitoramento através do uso da dieta sensorial. Concluiu-se que o uso da dieta sensorial é possível de ser implementado através do Telemonitoramento em Terapia Ocupacional durante a pandemia do Covid-19, proporcionando melhor organização sensorial da rotina da criança e contribuindo na auto- regulação de seu comportamento. AbstractThe occupational therapist is an important professional in the treatment of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) because is frequency of sensory integration disfunction.
