| Abstract: | Between 0.5 to 5% of individuals complain of listening difficulties irrespective of normal audiometric results, suggesting a possible auditory processing disorder (APD). However, listening difficulties are also manifested in other recognised diagnoses such as language impairment, literacy difficulties and autism spectrum disorders, since sound processing sounds entails complex connections between auditory, language and cognitive structures. Given these comorbidities it is of interest to evaluate the types and situations where listening difficulties emerge in these specific neurodevelopmental disorders. |
