ISIC 2025/2026 – Porto

International Sensory Integration Congress

Welcome to our Porto ISIC 2025/2026 poster collection.

This page brings together posters created by ASI Wise & The Sensory Project, alongside colleagues and collaborators, to share practice-based learning in a way that is easy to access, easy to share, and grounded in real services.

You are warmly invited to use these posters to spark reflection, strengthen clinical reasoning, and support kinder, clearer conversations in teams, schools, wards, and communities.

If you can, please support your fellow clinicians in practice by sharing a poster, leaving a short note of encouragement, or bringing one idea into your next discussion.

Poster links are listed below – click to visit each poster’s page to find downloadable PDFs. If you need an accessible alternative format, please get in touch, and we will help.

1. Percentiles, Protocols, and Practice | Making Adult PRN Metrics for ASI Meaningful with a Co-Produced Self-Reflection Checklist.

So what: Helps clinicians interpret adult vestibular metrics in ways that connect directly to lived experience, shared language, and participation outcomes.

2. Exploring the Impact of Sensory Needs on Hospital Discharge for Autistic People in Essex, England, UK.

So what: Makes sensory needs visible in discharge planning so teams can reduce avoidable distress, improve environmental fit, and support timely transitions.

3. Bridging the Gap | From Sensory-Motor Processing to Human Occupation with Sensory Ladders®

So what: Translates sensory-motor foundations into a co-produced plan people can use day to day, linking assessment to real participation in everyday life.

4. The Translation of the Sensory Ladders Clinical Tool | Cultural Adaptation and Co-Production for use across the Globe

So what: Provides a practical pathway for culturally responsive translation, ensuring tools maintain their meaning and remain safe, usable, and faithful to ASI principles.

5. No One Left Behind | Developing an ASI Community of Practice

So what: Shows how structured peer learning and supervision can grow confidence, consistency, and safe delivery of ASI-informed practice across services.

6. Trends in Sensory Integration and Processing Differences in UK School-Based Settings: A Retrospective to Now Dataset Analysis

So what: Helps schools and therapists plan for current patterns of need, strengthening consistent assessment, transition support, and participation-focused provision.

7. Data-Driven Co-Production in Adult Sensory Integration | Using Sensory Ladders®, Spiders™, & Grids™ to Enhance Occupational Possibilities

So what: Demonstrates a clear workflow for turning EASI and AASH findings into shared priorities, testable plans, and outcomes that matter to people.

8. Ayres Sensory Integration®: A case study illustrating its use for those who struggle to participate

So what: Offers a concrete, practice-based example of how ASI can support participation when intervention stays focused on the adaptive response and family-centred outcomes.

9. Ayres Sensory Integration Fidelity (ASIFM) in High-Security Mental Health Settings | Methodological Challenges and Practice Adaptations

So what: Supports teams to uphold ASI active ingredients while making necessary safety-led adaptations transparent, defensible, and teachable.

10. Should Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists Use the EASI to Assess Dyspraxia and Developmental Coordination Disorder in Clinical Practice in the UK, Ireland and other National Health Services?

So what: Strengthens clinical reasoning by combining motor performance results with sensory-motor foundations, supporting more targeted intervention and equitable access to assessment.

Thank you for being part of this learning community, from Porto and beyond.

FAQ | ASI Wise & Sensory Project Porto ISIC 2025 and 2026 Poster Collection

What is this poster collection about?
This page brings together posters created by ASI Wise and The Sensory Project, alongside colleagues and collaborators, for the International Sensory Integration Congress in Porto. The collection shares practice-based learning grounded in real services across health, education, and community contexts

Who are these posters for?
They are designed for occupational therapists, physiotherapists, speech and language therapists, psychologists, educators, service leads, and commissioners. They may also be helpful for students and researchers interested in sensory integration and processing, participation, and co-production.

Are the posters research or practice-based?
They reflect practice-based evidence, service evaluation, dataset analysis, implementation work, and case illustration. Several integrate structured measurement tools such as EASI, AASH, PRN metrics, and fidelity frameworks, always linked back to lived experience and participation outcomes.

Can I download and share the posters?
Yes. Each poster page includes a downloadable PDF. You are welcome to share within teams, supervision groups, teaching sessions, and professional networks. Please retain author credits and organisational acknowledgement when sharing.

How can I use these posters in my service?
You might use them to:
• Spark discussion in MDT meetings
• Support reflective supervision
• Inform service development conversations
• Strengthen clinical reasoning around assessment and intervention
• Model transparent adaptation in complex settings

They are intended as conversation starters that translate theory and measurement into everyday practice.

Do the posters align with Ayres Sensory Integration®️ principles?
Yes. Across the collection, there is a consistent commitment to fidelity to core ASI principles, including a focus on the adaptive response, therapeutic alliance, sensory-motor foundations, and participation in meaningful occupation. Where adaptations are required, these are made explicit and defensible.

What is meant by co-produced tools?
Co-production refers to developing tools and plans collaboratively with the person, family, or team. Tools such as Sensory Ladders®, Sensory Spiders™, and Sensory Grids™ are used to translate assessment findings into shared language, shared priorities, and practical next steps.

Are accessible formats available?
If you require an accessible alternative format, please contact us. We are committed to inclusive access and will do our best to meet individual needs.

Can I reference these posters in teaching or publications?
Yes. Please cite the authors and the Porto ISIC 2025 or 2026 collection as appropriate. If you would like formal citation details, get in touch, and we will provide them.

How can I connect with ASI Wise and The Sensory Project?
Links to related courses, community-of-practice opportunities, and open-access resources are available throughout the website. We welcome connections from Porto and beyond, and value ongoing dialogue grounded in practice, participation, and shared learning.

Lovely. Below is a slightly optimised version of the FAQ schema with the keyphrase woven in naturally as “sensory integration posters” and “Ayres Sensory Integration posters”. It remains readable, aligned to your page content, and suitable for Yoast green lights without feeling forced. You can paste this into a Custom HTML block at the bottom of your Porto poster page.
