Assessment of various auditory perceptual and cognitive skills.
Certain questions regarding auditory skills that are of interest to both researchers and clinicians are raised. These questions have been translated into procedures for assessment of various auditory abilities, resulting in a battery of standardized tests. The main categories of listening skills that are measured are selective attention, auditory discrimination, auditory memory and operations with sounds and/or symbols. The information derived from this battery is discussed in terms of implications for diagnosis and for educational and therapeutic intervention.
