Abstract

One of the tests included in an auditory processing disorder (APD) test battery is a dichotic test. Dichotic listening refers to the ability to repeat different stimuli that are presented to right and left ears at the same time. For example, in the dichotic digits test (Musiek, 1983) the patient may hear “two, four” in one ear and at the same time hear “five, one” in the other ear. The Staggered Spondaic Words (SSW) (Katz, 1998) and the competing words (CW) test within the SCAN-C test battery (Keith, 2000) are two of the other dichotic tests that allow us to evaluate dichotic listening skills. The purpose of this case-study is to compare the results obtained from the CW and the SSW tests in a child diagnosed with a combined type of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
