ASHA Audiology Resources—Developed for Audiologists, by Audiologists (Central) Auditory Processing Disorders: Assessment, Differential Diagnosis, and Treatment Teri James Bellis, PhD, CCC-A Audiologists, speech-language pathologists, and other professionals have critical roles to ﬁll in the assessment and differential diagnosis of (central) auditory processing disorders [(C)APD]. This audio self-study familiarizes participants with current perspectives on the screening, assessment, and treatment of (C)APD. Fundamental neuroscience tenets of auditory processing, and the relationship of (C)APD to language, learning, and communication difﬁculties are discussed. The development and implementation of individualized, deﬁcit-speciﬁc treatment plans is explored. Although the primary focus is on (C)APD in school-aged children, the principles discussed are also applicable to adults. You will be able to— ■ discuss how neurobiology informs our conceptualization, deﬁnition, assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of (C)APD ■ enumerate common behavioral “red ﬂags” of (C)APD ■ discuss methods of assessing and diagnosing (C)APD ■ identify intervention approaches and activities for individuals with (C)APD ■ delineate the roles of the SLP, audiologist, and other professionals in the assessment, differential diagnosis, and treatment of (C)APD Intermediate level 2-hour audio CD and manual 0.2 ASHA CEUs (2007–3/16/2010) Item #0112949 $74 > > > ASHA member $99 > > > nonmember tory Audi orders: tral) s (Cen ssing Di ential roce t, Differ ment P smen Treat Asses osis, and gn Dia ame Teri J s Be llis, P hD, C CC-A Modality Speciﬁcity of (Central) Auditory Processing Disorders: A Point/Counterpoint Debate Robert F. Burkard, PhD, CCC-A, Editor Modality Specificity of (Central) Auditory Processing Disorders: A Point/ Counterpoint Debate Robert F. Burkard, PhD, CCC-A, Editor REPRINT FROM: The American Journal of Audiology (AJA) Explore the complex issues and varied opinions surrounding the modality speciﬁcity of (C)APDs. In a point/counterpoint journal format, Cacace and McFarland discuss their views on (C)APD, followed by a series of commentaries by Katz and Tillery; Musiek, Bellis, and Chermak; and Rosen. Finally, the authors of the primary article respond with a rebuttal. For further exploration of these themes, join a continuing dialogue with the authors and other participants in ASHA’s online discussion forums. You will be able to— ■ discuss the importance of modality speciﬁcity in diagnosing (C)APD ■ describe supramodal inﬂuences on central auditory processing tests ■ discuss the argument for the nonmodularity of the central auditory nervous system and its implications for (C)APD ■ discuss a more comprehensive deﬁnition of (C)APD Intermediate level Articles from ASHA’s professional journals 0.4 ASHA CEUs (2006–9/8/2008) Item #0112841 $65 > > > ASHA member $85 > > > nonmember Cochlear Implants in Children and Adults 6007a October 10-27, 2008 A virtual conference on the Web for audiologists and speech-language pathologists.
