Caracterizar as habilidades auditivas centrais de indivíduos gagos. Este estudo trata-se de uma pesquisa do tipo quantitativa transversal sobre como a grau da gagueira pode estar relacionada com alterações no processamento auditivo central. Método: O estudo foi realizado na clínica do UNIVAG em pacientes que já fazem acompanhamento de gagueira com uma fonoaudióloga, não tendo nenhum distúrbio neurológico associado e nenhum tipo de alteração auditiva, que tenha entre 7 a 18 anos de idade, de ambos os sexos. Inicialmente foi realizada a busca nos prontuários de indivíduos que possuem a gagueira. Logo após, realizou-se a avaliação periférica da audição, para verificar se o indivíduo não possuia nenhuma alteração/perda auditiva, depois foi feita a avaliação do PAC.
The purpose of this study was to verify the effect of the acoustically controlled auditory training on the speech fluency of children diagnosed with developmental stuttering. Two patients were submitted to speech fluency evaluation, basic audiological assessment, and central auditory processing assessment, before and after the intervention with the digital platform. Two male individuals (P1 and P2) participated in the research. They were respectively 8 and 9 years old, both were right-handed, native Brazilian Portuguese speakers, diagnosed with developmental stuttering, P1 presenting a moderate, and P2, a mild-to-moderate degree. There was an improvement in some auditory skills. However, there was no improvement in the speech fluency pattern in neither of the cases studied.
