Living with APD - A Teens Point of View: July 2011 In yesterdays blog, I wrote about how Auditory Processing Disorder affects those who have it in the 'real world' outside the school setting, as much as it does in the school setting. So, tonight, I want to talk a little more about it's challenges for a high school student in the school setting since thats where us teens find it the most! 1. In the classroom: This is one area where it can be very overwhelming, pressuring, and difficult for a teenager with apd, and there are many different reasons for that!-> Background Noise This is a major issue because it is very hard for someone with APD to block this out while trying to concentrate on doing their work, listening to the teacher, or doing something more demanding such as a test or a quiz. -> ...and the answer is? ->Im Confussed!? 2. -> Studying To continue on from the following point, studying is a much the same, yet a whole other ball park! -> Sleep? -apdteen23

Living and Working with a Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD) By: Judith W. Paton The easiest, quickest way to communicate is simply to say something and then deal with the other person's reply, right? Right, unless your listener has a CAPD (Central Auditory Processing Disorder), then your remark might come through with certain words drowned out by other noises, or with some words sounding like different words or as meaningless strings of verbiage. You might begin to suspect this when the other person's expression doesn't register understanding, or if he "answers the wrong question," or he asks you for additional information which most people would have been able to infer from what you just said. Most of us aren't that sophisticated about CAPDs, however, and are much more likely to wonder if the listener is just not very intelligent or doesn't really care about us and what we are saying. A CAPD is a physical hearing impairment, but one which does not show up as a hearing loss on routine screenings or an audiogram. Talks or likes T. 1.

It takes a team to differentially diagnose APD Chermak, Gail D. PhD Section Editor(s): Musiek, Frank E. PhD Abstract How can one distinguish auditory processing disorder from multimodal or supramodal disorders that may involve the auditory modality? Author Information Pathways editor Professor of Audiology and Chair of the Department of Speech and Hearing Sciences at Washington State University. Correspondence to Dr. Readers are invited to suggest future topics to Frank E. Auditory processing disorder (APD) is a deficit in the processing of information that is specific to the auditory modality.1 APD typically involves deficits in dichotic listening, selective attention, and temporal processing. Given the heterogeneous nature of APD and the range of listening and learning deficits that often accompany it, comprehensive evaluation requires a multidisciplinary team approach. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16.
