Billiet, Cassandra R.; Bellis, Teri James – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2011
Purpose: Studies using speech stimuli to elicit electrophysiologic responses have found approximately 30% of children with language-based learning problems demonstrate abnormal brainstem timing. Research is needed regarding how these responses relate to performance on behavioral tests of central auditory function. The purpose of the study was to…

Targeting Academic Success: An Interdisciplinary Assessment Program for Children with Central Auditory Processing Deficits.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Hutchinson, Kathleen M.; Mauer, Daria M. – Volta Review, 1999
This paper provides an overview of interdisciplinary assessment procedures and criteria for diagnosis of central auditory processing (CAP) disorders. It describes use of a CAP test battery consisting of four measures with results integrated with a comprehensive speech-language pathology assessment. Practical strategies for classroom utilization…

Leavell, C. A.; And Others – 1996
This study investigated the utility of central auditory processing disorder (CAPD) assessments in 70 children being evaluated for learning and attention problems, by assessing their relationship to auditory-based neuropsychological tests with varying degrees of attentional, linguistic, and cognitive complexity. Students were given several tests to…

Toward a Research-Based Assessment of Dyslexia: Using Cognitive Measures To Identify Reading Disabilities.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Bell, Sherry Mee; McCallum, R. Steve; Cox, Elizabeth A. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2003
Elementary and middle school children (n=105) completed measures of reading achievement and cognitive abilities. Factor analysis produced three empirically and theoretically derived factors, auditory processing, visual processing/speed, and memory. Together the three factors combined predicted 61 to 85% of the variance associated with different…
