Auditory Processing + ADHD

Auditory Continuous Performance Test (ACPT)

Determine if an attention problem is one of the underlying factors contributing to a child's learning problems. Pass/Fail criterion scores indicate whether a child's performance matches that of children with normal attention skills or children identified as having ADHD. The child listens to single words presented on the tape and raises a thumb when the target word is heard. Written by the author of SCAN-3: Tests for Auditory Processing Disorders.
