Abstract

This article overviews some selected central auditory test procedures as well as some popular issues that surround them. Both behavioral and electrophysiologic central auditory tests are discussed in reference to their clinical value as judged by their sensitivity, specificity, administration time, and reliability. Also discussed are diagnostic trends that are noted on behavioral and electrophysiologic procedures. Relationships are drawn between children with auditory processing deficits associated with learning problems and individuals with neurological lesions of the central auditory nervous system.

Congenital amusia: all the songs sound the same.

Recent evidence from individuals born with a profound musical impairment suggests that the ability to process pitch information is normally present from birth. This finding supports the idea that the perception and appreciation of music, both of which critically depend on pitch processing, have a biological basis in the brain.

Aetiology and clinical presentations of auditory processing disorders--a review.

Auditory processing disorders may have detrimental consequences on a child's life, if undiagnosed and untreated. We review causes of auditory processing disorders in order to raise clinical awareness. Auditory processing disorders may present against a background of neurological disease or developmental disorders, as well as in isolation. Clinicians need to be aware of potential causes and implications of auditory processing disorders.
