Auditory Processing Screening and Behavioral Evaluation in Students Aged 9-14

Eleven students aged nine to fourteen from a public school in Porto Alegre underwent a battery of auditory processing tests. G. Vargas authored this research, which found that 90.9% of students who failed a simplified screening showed alterations in a detailed behavioral battery. The study compared results from tests like PSI, PPS, MLD, SSW, and GIN to characterize auditory processing profiles.

Use Cases

• Evaluating the predictive validity of simplified auditory screening tests based on the comparison described in the study
• Analyzing patterns of auditory processing deficits, such as decoding and integration subprofiles, based on the behavioral test battery results
• Studying the relationship between specific auditory abilities like binaural interaction and separation in a pediatric population

Strengths

• Includes results from a multi-test behavioral battery (PSI, PPS, MLD, SSW, GIN) for detailed assessment
• Focuses on a specific age range (9-14 years old) and educational context (4th to 8th grade)

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Data may reflect geographic and institutional bias inherent to a single public school study
