An examination of various aspects of auditory processing in clutterers

Journal/Book: J Fluency Disord. 1996; 21: 655 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10010. Elsevier Science Inc. 215-225.

Abstract: This study examined auditory processing ability in three school-aged male clutterers who presented concomitant diagnoses of attention deficit disorder (ADD) and three age- and sex-matched normal-speaking control subjects. Subjects underwent a brief central auditory processing (CAP) and auditory event-related potential (AEP) battery. All three clutterers performed below normal test-established performance criteria on at least two of the four CAP measures and exhibited abnormal AEP waveform morphology. All control subjects per formed within normal test-established performance criteria on all measures.
