Tests that include speech stimuli degraded by modifying frequency, temporal, or intensity characteristics and is highly impacted by intrinsic factors related to the CANS.
What are Monaural Low Redundancy Speech Tests
100
(Central) Auditory Processing Tests fall into primarily five test categories, but only one category looks more directly at the auditory modality with no or very limited use of verbal responses
What is electrophysiologic testing?
100
This is the largest fiber tract in the brain, connecting most cortical areas of the two cerebral hemispheres.
What is the Corpus Callosum
100
The term used to describe the reflection of sound off hard surfaces, thereby reducing redundancy and intelligibility of speech signals
What is reverberation?
100
This interpretation model is designed around three core tests: the SSW, Speech-in-Noise, and Phonemic Synthesis
What is the Buffalo Model?
200
When competing messages are presented to both ears simultaneously, but a response is only required from one ear.
What is binaural separation?
200
Binaural Integration is a specific type of auditory skill in this category of tests.
What are dichotic listening tasks?
200
This is the name of the principle which explains as age decreases, neural plasticity increases.
What is the Kennard Effect?
200
This form of intervention is used for bottom-up deficits to assist with auditory discrimination, acoustic cue recognition, and phoneme discrimination.
What is auditory training?
200
One of the most widely used interpretation models dividing APD results into three primary and two secondary profile categories
What is the Bellis/Ferre Model?
300
This refers to a person's ability to perform better on dichotic tasks when recalling information presented to the right ear as opposed to the left ear; most prominent at age 6 and resolves around age 11.
What is the Right ear advantage?
300
This test requires a test subject to determine silent intervals embedded in an ongoing sound or noise burst
What is the Random Gap Detection Test or a Gap Detection Test?
300
This hemisphere of the cerebral cortex is responsible for the ability to detect tonal patterns and contours of speech cues.
What is the right hemisphere?
300
Training in this area helps to improve an individual's internalization of skills needed to function efficiently in multiple listening environments despite auditory and learning deficits.
What is metacognitive skill training?
300
This finding on dichotic tests usually indicates mixed or reversed hemispheric dominance for language consistent with a neurological basis for language and learning problems
What is a left ear advantage?
400
Frequency and durational cues are presented in sequence to examine this skill.
What is temporal ordering?
400
A peripheral hearing evaluation is always recommended prior to CAP testing to rule out this retrocochlear complication.
What is Auditory Neuropathy/Spectrum Disorder?
400
Signals fusing together between ears to create a single message occurs in this anatomical region.
What is the lower brainstem area?
400
When writing a CAP report, what the three basic intervention categories recommended to be addressed?
What are Direct Therapy, Classroom Management, and Classroom Acoustic Management/Environmental Accommodations?
400
When all dichotic tasks demonstrate a left-condition deficit and temporal ordering tasks demonstrate deficit in the verbal condition, this demonstrates this auditory processing category.
What is an Integration Deficit (or Auditory Integration Deficit)?
500
The synthesis or fusing of signals coming from different directions allows us to localize sound sources in space.
What is Binaural Interaction?
500
Time compressed speech, filtered speech, and auditory figure ground are examples of this type of auditory test category.
What are Monaural Low Redundancy Speech Tests?
500
The concept of contralateral suppression of signals and the effect of dichotic listening was first written about by this researcher in 1961.
Who is Doreen Kimura?
500
This activity can be performed in the sound booth when an Integration Deficit presents to acoustically control stimuli to each ear in an effort to stimulate development of the contralateral pathways.
What is Dichotic Listening Training or DIID (Dichotic Interaural Intensity Differences)
500
When reviewing the auditory test results from an APD battery, these factors must also be considered to ensure that the CANS has not been compromised by extrinsic variables.
