Disorders
Central Auditory Processing Dysfunctions (CAPD) is a measurable neurological
defect located in higher auditory neural pathways.
The person has
adequate hearing, but an out-of-sync arrival time of the electrical
impulses from the two ears (cochlea) through the brainstem to the
brain, causing faulty interpretation of heard signals.
Since speed
is dependent on time, any delays in one ear over the other can distort
sounds and produce an inaccurate or inappropriate response.
Symptoms
Symptoms include high sensitivity to noisy environments, difficulty with following
directions – even simple ones – difficulty with reading,
spelling, and writing, difficulty with verbal math problems, difficulty
with following conversation, and sleep problems.
