AUDIOLOGIC DETECTION OF AUDITORY PROCESSING DISORDERS IN CHILDREN

AUDIOLOGIC DETECTION OF AUDITORY PROCESSING DISORDERS IN CHILDREN A group of 11 normal children was compared to a group of language learning-disabled children on two auditory discrimination tasks. The word intelligibility by picture identification test was distorted by low pass filtering and bandpass filtering to be used as distorted monaural discrimination tasks and as tests of binaural fusion. Results revealed that the two groups could not be differentiated on the basis of distorted speech presented monaurally but that the language learning-disabled group showed a significantly greater improvement in diotic over dichotic scores than did the normal group. A procedure for audiologic screening for language learning-disabled children with normal hearing sensitivity is suggested. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of the American Audiology Society Wolters Kluwer Health

Abstract

A group of 11 normal children was compared to a group of language learning-disabled children on two auditory discrimination tasks. The word intelligibility by picture identification test was distorted by low pass filtering and bandpass filtering to be used as distorted monaural discrimination tasks and as tests of binaural fusion. Results revealed that the two groups could not be differentiated on the basis of distorted speech presented monaurally but that the language learning-disabled group showed a significantly greater improvement in diotic over dichotic scores than did the normal group. A procedure for audiologic screening for language learning-disabled children with normal hearing sensitivity is suggested.
