[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 469954, member: 11791"] Keista - You want the following tests done: 1) DSTP - Differential Screening Test for Processing This is usually done by a Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) - could even be done by school Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) (can be here, anyway). Only normed to age 12 - but difficult child was 14. Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) said that this means we can't tell from this test exactly how bad the problem is, but it definitely is a problem... as they expect the kids' result levels to improve with age (he was way down at the bottom compared to 12yo). The results of this test are used to justify advanced audiological testing. 2) SCAN-3 A - Tests for Auditory Processing Disorders in Adolescents and Adults Done by advanced audiology - one sub-test is specifically for auditory figure ground. 3) LISN-S - Listening in Spacialized Noise-Sentences Test Done by advanced audiology - if #2's auditory figure ground test shows issues, this test provides a LOT more detail. Hope that helps a [U]little[/U]. There is no formal diagnosis for this stuff... it is "an" auditory processing disorder. But... the test results do come with recommendations! [/QUOTE]
