Amplitude Modulation Perception In Children With Auditory Processing Disorder, Winnie Ly
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Children with developmental delays in auditory processing are more prone to experience difficulty in a classroom setting. Temporal cues are reported to be important for speech understanding in noisy and quiet conditions. One method to assess the ability to discriminate temporal cues is the amplitude modulation task. The purpose of this thesis was to examine amplitude modulation perception in listeners (children with auditory processing disorder (APD), typically developing children and adults) through an adaptive amplitude modulation task, estimation of psychometric functions for this task study and verification of the amplitude modulation task on a portable device (iPaas-based Application Suite …
