Summary

Senses are fundamental to the neurological system, enabling individuals to perceive their bodies and interact with their surroundings. While the five primary senses-vision, smell, hearing, taste, and touch-are well known, humans also possess three "hidden" senses: the vestibular sense (movement and gravity), proprioception (body position), and interoception (internal organs). Sensory integration, as defined by Dr. Jean Ayres, is the process of receiving, processing, and generating motor responses to sensory input, which influences learning, behaviors, and personality traits. Dr. Winnie Dunn's "Four Quadrant Model of Sensory Processing" further explores how individuals respond to sensory stimuli based on their neurological thresholds and behavioral responses. The model includes four quadrants: low registration, sensation seeking, sensory sensitivity, and sensation avoiding, each of which affects behaviors in daily life, including educational settings. For example, a student with low registration may need more stimuli to focus, while a sensation-avoiding student may prefer quieter environments. Research shows that sensory processing influences academic achievement, yet studies on this relationship in young adults are limited. This study aims to assess how sensory processing impacts academic success among university students.
