background and aim: spatial hearing is one of the most important functions of binaural hearing processing that is based on detection of fine interaural time and interaural intensity difference. spatial hearing is beyond auditory localization and lateralization. it helps auditory scene analysis and target stream segregation from other simultaneous sound sources. this function is important in spe...

background and aim: auditory processing disorders may have detrimental consequences on a child’s life, if undiagnosed and untreated. the multiple auditory processing assessment (mapa), as a valid model, has been introduced for central auditory processing assessment and diagnosis in school children. the purpose of this study was to design and evaluate the persian version of mapa for auditory pro...

background and aim : auditory processing disorder (apd) weakens recognition and understanding auditory data and adversely affects children's language and learning if remains undetected and untreated. since early diagnosis of apd can obviate its adverse effects, screening is hugely important in identifying suspected cases. auditory processing domain questionnaire (apdq) is a reliable tool among ...

background: according to previous studies, most of the speech recognition disorders in older adults are the results of deficits in audibility and auditory temporal resolution. in this paper, the effect of ageing on timecompressed speech and auditory temporal resolution by word recognition in continuous and interrupted noise was studied. methods: a time-compressed speech test (tcst) was conducte...

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...
