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 a...

Although there have been several previous investigations on the role of auditory training for the development of auditory processing skills, it still remains unknown whether children with auditory processing difficulties can get improved auditory skills after exposure to a multi-modal training experience comprising both visual and tactile stimuli. The present study, therefore, attempted to use ...

background and aim: auditory processing disorder and dyslexia have been reported by many studies as having high comorbidity. the purpose of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of central auditory processing rehabilitation program on speech reception in noise and dichotic listening in dyslexic students. the research was quasi-experimental, including a pretest, posttest and a control g...

Aims: Autism is a pervasive developmental disorder. Deficit in sensory functions is one of the characteristics of people with autism, and usually these people show abnormality in processing and correct interpretation of auditory information. Also people with Autism show problems in communicating with others. This review article deals with the accurate understanding of Auditory processing skills...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Central auditory processing disorder [(C)APD] refers to a deficit in auditory stimuli processing in nervous system that is not due to higher-order language or cognitive factors. One of the problems in children with (C)APD is spatial difficulties which have been overlooked despite their significance. Localization is an auditory ability to detect sound sources in space a...

Functional neuroimaging of covert perceptual and cognitive processes can inform the diagnoses and prognoses of patients with disorders of consciousness, such as the vegetative and minimally conscious states (VS;MCS). Here we report an event-related potential (ERP) paradigm for detecting a hierarchy of auditory processes in a group of healthy individuals and patients with disorders of consciousn...

objectives: this study investigated the efficacy of working memory training for improving working memory capacity and related auditory stream segregation in auditory processing disorders children. methods: fifteen subjects (9-11 years), clinically diagnosed with auditory processing disorder participated in this non-randomized case-controlled trial. working memory abilities and auditory stream s...

background : the aim of the present study was to assess the auditory working memory span of children with (central) auditory processing disorders (c) apd aged 8 to 10 years and to compare the results with normal ones. methods: twenty five children with (central) auditory processing disorders (8-10 years) and 75 normal children (8-10 years) from both genders participated in this comparative stud...

background and aim: auditory temporal resolution skill is calculated according to the minimum required time to analyze or integrate acoustic events. this skill, which is essential for speech perception, was evaluated by gap detection tests. the aim of this study was to determine the presence or absence of any differences between the right and left ear in the gap detection test. methods: after p...
