Background: This study assessed the relationship between working memory capacity and auditory stream segregation by using the concurrent minimum audible angle in children with a diagnosed auditory processing disorder (APD).Methods: The participants in this cross-sectional, comparative study were 20 typically developing children and 15 children with a diagnosed APD (age, 9–11 years) according to...

The effectiveness of three central auditory processing (CAP) tests was evaluated using clinical decision analysis (CDA) procedures. The tests under study were the Dichotic Digits Test (DDT), the Auditory Duration Patterns Test (ADPT), and the P300 evoked potential test (P300). Subjects with normal hearing, sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), and central lesions provided the data for CDA analyses...

UNLABELLED Amusia is a disorder that affects the processing of music. Part of this processing happens in the primary auditory cortex. The study of this condition allows us to evaluate the central auditory pathways. OBJECTIVE To explore the diagnostic evaluation tests of amusia. METHOD The authors propose an evaluation protocol for patients with suspected amusia (after brain injury or compla...

BACKGROUND The recently developed Gaps-In-Noise (GIN) test has provided a new diagnostic tool for the detection of temporal resolution deficits. Previous reports indicate that the GIN is a relatively sensitive tool for the diagnosis of central auditory processing disorder ([C]APD) in adult populations. PURPOSE The purpose of the present study was to determine the feasibility of the GIN test i...

Discriminant analysis (DA) and self-organizing feature maps (SOFM) were used to classify passively evoked auditory event-related potentials (ERP) P(1), N(1), P(2) and N(2). Responses from 16 children with severe behavioral auditory perception deficits, 16 children with marked behavioral auditory perception deficits, and 14 controls were examined. Eighteen ERP amplitude parameters were selected ...
