We are aware of or are subconsciously aware of where we are and how we interact with the environment. When we manage to interpret sensory information with ease, it impacts on our behaviour at a subconscious level. One example of this is switching off the alarm clock. When it goes off in the morning we reach out and switch it off, often without looking. Our brain knows exactly how much movement/force is required to reach out and press the off button. If we hit the wrong spot our fingers provide our brain with the information needed for further movement so we can then switch off the alarm - all without looking. If a young person has difficulties making sense of this\r\ninformation, their behaviour may not meet the demands of the environment. If the sensory information is not processed smoothly, we might pay too much attention to the unnecessary sensory information or not enough attention to the necessary sensory information, to perform an activity, feel calm or pay attention. This can cause us problems.
