SPM-2: Sensory Processing Measure – Second Edition for Comprehensive Sensory Assessment

The Sensory Processing Measure – Second Edition (SPM-2) is a cutting-edge tool designed to assess sensory integration and processing difficulties across multiple environments, including home, school, and community settings. As a significant upgrade to the widely respected original SPM, the SPM-2 expands its capabilities with broadened age coverage, new forms such as driving forms, and detailed intervention guidance.

Unlike physical disabilities, sensory processing deficits are invisible, making them difficult to identify without specialized assessment tools. The SPM-2 helps professionals bring those hidden challenges to light, offering a comprehensive, behavior-based rating scale for identifying and addressing sensory issues in children, adolescents, and adults.

What’s New in the SPM-2?

• Expanded Age Range: Now accommodates a wider developmental spectrum to ensure no individual is overlooked.

• New Rating Forms: Includes unique forms like driving forms to evaluate sensory needs in older individuals and broader contexts.

• Quick Tips for Intervention: Provides item-level intervention strategies (SPM-2 Quick Tips) to support practitioners in implementing targeted sensory supports.

• Multienvironment Assessment: Captures a full sensory profile by evaluating functioning in diverse real-life settings, such as classrooms, homes, and community spaces.
