Autism is the most prevalent disorder as it affects attention, awareness, cognitive development, social development, and emotional aspects too. It is one of the comprehensive developmental disorders in the early stage, which is characterized by weak social learning and communication, limited activities, interests, learning, insufficient imaginative and stereotypical thinking or non-functional thinking of movements and verbalities. A lack of sensory perception leads to a leading autistic child's sensitivity to sensory stimuli or weak sensitivity and the child is not aware of the surrounding environment.
The current study will be randomized control trial; data will be collected from Lahore Garrison Institute of Special Education. This study will be conducted with 32 participants equally divided into two groups. Inclusion criteria will be Children who diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (mild & moderate) according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, (DSM-5), Have an IQ 70 according to Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales and be able to understand and follow instructions, Children whose age between 4 to 12 and All participants had to be able to sit and walk without support according to GMFCS. Exclusion criteria for the study include Children who will associate with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder signs, Upper limb musculoskeletal injuries, Visual or auditory impairments, Children who had received sensory integration therapy for > 3 months within the past 6 months and Children with speech delay, hearing impairment, or intellectual disability. SPM training will be given each child individually in the first group. In the second group techniques will be apply in a group therapy. The SPM training programme will apply for 10 months. Outcomes, including the Test of Movement Battery for Children, Quality of life scale will be use. Data analysis will be performed using SPSS version 23.00

| THE DEVELOPMENTAL COORDINATION The Developmental Coordination Disorder Questionnaire | The Developmental Coordination Disorder Questionnaire (DCDQ) is a parent-report screening tool for identifying motor coordination difficulties in children aged 5 to 15 years, 11 months. It includes 15 items across three domains: Control During Movement, Fine Motor/Handwriting, and General Coordination, rated on a 5-point Likert scale. Scores below age-specific cutoffs suggest potential Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD). It is reliable, quick (10-15 min), but not diagnostic, requiring further evaluation. | 10-15 minutes |

| Short Sensory Profile | The Short Sensory Profile (SSP) is a caregiver-completed questionnaire used to assess sensory processing difficulties in children aged 3-14 years. It includes 38 items across seven domains (e.g., tactile sensitivity, auditory filtering), rated on a 5-point scale. Scores help identify sensory modulation issues affecting daily activities. The SSP is quick, reliable, and widely used, but it is a screening tool, not a diagnostic instrument. |
