Sensory Processing Differences Questionnaire | Am I NeuroSpicy?
Reflect on how you experience sensory input — sound, light, touch, taste, and movement. Explore patterns of sensory over-sensitivity, under-sensitivity, or sensory seeking.
Sensory Processing Differences Self-Reflection Questionnaire. Sensory processing differences affect how the brain receives, organises, and responds to information from the senses. Many neurodivergent adults experience the world more intensely — or less intensely — than others, and may not realise that their sensory experiences are different from the norm. This 9-question self-reflection questionnaire takes 5-10 minutes and explores areas including: auditory sensitivity — reactions to background noise, loud sounds, or overlapping conversations, visual sensitivity — responses to bright lights, flickering screens, or busy visual environments, tactile sensitivity — comfort with certain fabrics, textures, labels in clothing, or physical touch, gustatory and olfactory sensitivity — reactions to strong tastes, food textures, or smells, vestibular and proprioceptive awareness — sense of balance, body position, and movement preferences, sensory seeking behaviours — craving certain sensory inputs like deep pressure, movement, or specific textures, and sensory overload — experiences of overwhelm, shutdown, or meltdown in stimulating environments. Common experiences explored: Do certain sounds make you feel anxious or irritable? Do you find fluorescent lighting or bright screens uncomfortable? Are you particular about clothing textures or fabric? Do busy or crowded environments drain your energy quickly? Do you seek out specific sensory experiences like weighted blankets or fidget tools? What happens after? You receive free preliminary insights immediately. You can optionally unlock a comprehensive report with personalised strategies for managing sensory differences. This is a self-reflection tool for personal exploration — not a clinical assessment or diagnosis. For adults (18+). Your responses are private and confidential — not stored in any medical or government registry.
