Audiologists, speech-language pathologists, and other professionals have critical roles to fill in the assessment and differential diagnosis of (Central) Auditory Processing Disorders [(C)APD]. This audio self-study familiarizes participants with current perspectives on the screening, assessment, and treatment of (C)APD. Fundamental neuroscience tenets of auditory processing, and the relationship of (C)APD to language, learning, and communication difficulties, are discussed. The development and implementation of individualized, deficit-specific treatment plans is explored. Although the primary focus is on (C)APD in school-aged children, the principles discussed are also applicable to adults.

Learning Outcomes
You will be able to:

  • discuss how neurobiology informs our conceptualization, definition, assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of (C)APD
  • enumerate common behavioral “red flags” of (C)APD
  • discuss methods of assessing and diagnosing (C)APD
  • identify intervention approaches and activities for individuals with (C)APD
  • delineate the roles of the SLP, audiologist, and other professionals in the assessment, differential diagnosis, and treatment of (C)APD
