Auditory fusion test in scholars.
BACKGROUND
Temporal resolution.


OBJECTIVE
To use an auditory fusion test with pure tone in children and to comparatively analyze the results in relation to gender, age and risk for presenting language development deficits, in group and individually.


METHODS
35 scholars, in the first or fourth grade, from a private school of Belo Horizonte were submitted to an auditory fusion test and had their life history analyzed.


RESULTS
The mean values obtained for the resolution times when the test was performed in free camp, with headphones and per group were similar, and inferior to 15 ms.


CONCLUSIONS
The presented test can be performed in scholars.
