Efficacy of a deficit specific auditory training program for remediation of temporal patterning deficits

Abstract

Objective: To determine the efficacy of a targeted auditory training programme as a remediation approach for children diagnosed with a temporal patterning disorder. Design: Temporal Patterning scores were determined at two-time points pre-intervention and again post-training. Measures were then repeated in half of the participants after a further non-training period to determine the sustainability of effects. Cognitive skills and outcome measures were assessed at all time-points. Study Sample: Ten children aged between 7 and 12 years of age, diagnosed with a temporal patterning processing disorder, were enrolled in the training programme. Results: A group mean of 9.2 hours training was compl..
