Abstract:
The aim of this study is to determine if online auditory training is a valid and efficacious treatment for those with auditory processing disorder as well as to identify any barriers to success. A retrospective chart review on Buffalo Model Auditory Processing Evaluations before and after Buffalo Model Auditory Training at an outside clinic were assessed. Paired t-tests revealed statistically significant difference post treatment for 12/14 test categories, including Number of Errors on Staggared Spondaic Word test, p< 0.001, with a large effect size (cohen's d: -0.941). Further ANOVA analysis will investigate the role comorbidities have on treatment success.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand the exercises involved in Buffalo Model Auditory Training.
  • Assess the efficiency of auditory training for central auditory processing patients.
  • Evaluate factors and their impact on the success of auditory training.
