Berard Auditory Integration Training: Behavior Changes Related to Sensory Modulation
Behaviors specifically related to sensory modulation show positive changes following 10 days of Berard AIT as reported in a recent peer-reviewed research paper. A study of 54 children ages 3-10 with disabilities, indicates an association between the Berard protocol and improvement in behaviors measured by the ABC and in sensory modulation measured by the SSP. Since the program was only 10 days long, results show that Berard AIT is a time efficient and cost effective program.
