OBJECTIVE To identify a cutoff value based on the Percentage of Consonants Correct-Revised index that could indicate the likelihood of a child with a speech-sound disorder also having a (central) auditory processing disorder . METHODS Language, audiological and (central) auditory processing evaluations were administered. The participants were 27 subjects with speech-sound disorders aged 7 to ...

INTRODUCTION It has been demonstrated that long-term Conductive Hearing Loss (CHL) may influence the precise detection of the temporal features of acoustic signals or Auditory Temporal Processing (ATP). It can be argued that ATP may be the underlying component of many central auditory processing capabilities such as speech comprehension or sound localization. Little is known about the consequen...

UNLABELLED It is thought that a close relationship exists between auditory processing, the acoustic reflex and speech. AIM A retrospective study to evaluate these three aspects in children with and without phonological disorders and seek any relationship among them. MATERIAL METHODS 46 children were enrolled: 24 had normal speech abilities and 22 had phonological disorders. All children und...
