ABSTRACT Purpose To develop an assessment script to observe hearing and central auditory processing in preschool children. Methods The was prepared based on a search the Scielo databases library of university state São Paulo using following keywords: “central processing”, “hearing language”, “auditory disorders”, children”, “vocabulary assessment”, resulting selection fourteen articles two book...

background and aim: bilingualism is an important phenomenon with different effects on each aspect of language processing. auditory temporal processing is a major component of the auditory processing ability. since bilingual and monolingual individual’s brain process are different, and no studies have yet been conducted on the effect of temporal processing on speech recognition performance of az...

In an attempt to assess objectively the integrity of the auditory pathways in 30 patients with definite multiple sclerosis (MS), an audiometric evaluation was performed and auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) were obtained. Stressing the auditory system by increasing the stimulation rate showed some enhancement in the identification of MS. 24 (RO%) patients had an abnormal ABR along with c...

This case was selected to highlight the importance of the test battery approach in the assessment of a child with auditory processing deficits. The utility of behavioral, electrophysiologic, acoustic immittance, and evoked otoacoustic emission procedures, as well as the problems associated with interpreting these multiple measures with differing results, is discussed. This case was confounded b...

This chapter considers specific deficits in auditory processing ('negative' disorders) due to neurological conditions and 'positive' disorders of central auditory processing caused by abnormal activity in central auditory mechanisms. Recent work focuses on the assessment of auditory processing in disorders that are not specifically auditory. In this case, auditory measurement may provide a 'win...

objectives: the aim of the present study was to assess the auditory lateralization ability in children with (central) auditory processing disorder. methods: participants were divided in two groups: 15 children with central auditory processing disorder (8-10 years) and 80 normal children (8-11 years) from both genders with pure-tone air-conduction thresholds better than 20 db hl bilaterally and ...

introduction: auditory temporal resolution and auditory temporal ordering are two major components of the auditory temporal processing abilities that contribute to speech perception and language development. auditory temporal resolution and auditory temporal ordering can be evaluated by gap-in-noise (gin) and pitch-pattern-sequence (pps) tests, respectively. in this survey, the effect of biling...

PURPOSE To verify the effect of delayed auditory feedback on speech fluency of individuals who stutter with and without central auditory processing disorders. METHODS The participants were twenty individuals with stuttering from 7 to 17 years old and were divided into two groups: Stuttering Group with Auditory Processing Disorders (SGAPD): 10 individuals with central auditory processing disor...
