Children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder have problems performing various occupations that are under the scope of occupational therapy treatment. One potential obstacle to performing occupations can also be difficulties in processing sensory inputs. In the study, we used the Questionnaire on Children's Processing of Sensory Input for School-Aged Children to determine whether sensory input processing and behavioral responses to it differ in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and neurotypical children. A total of 62 parents of neurotypical children and 42 parents of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder aged 6–9 years were included in the study. There was a statistically significant difference between the groups on the total scale and most subscales (Ideas and Movement Planning; Touch; Body Awareness; Hearing; and Smell and Taste). The mentioned research findings align with the findings of other similar studies, in which parents were the primary source of data.
