Central auditory processing disorders in children and adults

Handbook of Clinical Neurology

Abstract

Central auditory processing disorders (CAPD) can affect children and adults of all ages due to a wide variety of causes. CAPD is a neurobiologic deficit in the central auditory nervous system (CANS) that affects those mechanisms that underlie fundamental auditory perception, including localization and lateralization; discrimination of speech and non-speech sounds; auditory pattern recognition; temporal aspects of audition, including integration, resolution, ordering, and masking; and auditory performance with competing and/or degraded acoustic signals (American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, 2005a, b). Although it is recognized that central auditory dysfunction may coexist with other disorders, CAPD is conceptualized as a sensory-based auditory disorder. Administration of behavioral and/or electrophysiologic audiologic tests that have been shown to be sensitive and specific to dysfunction of the CANS is critical for a proper diagnosis of CAPD, in addition to assessments and collaboration with a multidisciplinary team. Intervention recommendations for CAPD diagnosis are based on the demonstrated auditory processing deficits and related listening and related complaints. This chapter provides an overview of current definitio...Continue Reading
