[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 543352, member: 11791"] In this case, it is the neuropsychologist that is confused... but, in reality, many people are. Most people are aware of the "original" Auditory Processing Disorders (APD), sometimes called Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD) - where the person has trouble processing verbal language. And yes, this one DOES affect language development, so if language is "normal", it won't be this Auditory Processing Disorders (APD). BUT... there are other APDs. The impact is huge. And no, a neuropsychologist won't know unless they have a particular reason to know. (recent training, exposure to individuals with these challenges, etc.) If it were me? I'd be running the testing in parallel and/or ahead of the neuropsychologist. We did - Occupational Therapist (OT) and Speech Language Pathologist (SLP), 2x - and both times, the comprehensive evaluators (we don't have access to neuropsychologist) were glad we did. A standard audiologist isn't going to catch it either. Here the screening starts with Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) - and from there, to extremely specialized (PhD level) audiologist. [/QUOTE]
