“…The study of FFR in children with auditory processing abnormalities requires the exclusion of children with higher-order functional deficits, considering that auditory processing abnormalities often coexist with neurodevelopmental disorders, such as language impairment, ADHD, and learning disabilities. In 2015, Kumar et al first explored BioMark (commercialized FFR) in children with sAPD in whom dyslexia had been excluded ( 38 ). The results showed that BioMark waveform morphology was poorer in the presence of children at risk for APD, compared with normal children.…”

“…FFR is widely used in dyslexic children ( 57 , 102 , 103 ). Kumar first explored the value of the FFR as a screening tool for auditory processing when comorbidities were excluded ( 38 ). In addition, FFR can be used as a good index to evaluate the effectiveness of auditory training ( 104 ).…”

“…Therefore, the criteria used to identify children with APD or children with sAPD also varied among the 14 included studies. Two studies ( 33 , 38 ) used only the children auditory performance scale ( 48 ) and screening identification for targeting educational risk ( 49 ) and the screening checklist for auditory processing (SCAP) ( 133 ) to assess auditory processing abnormalities. Only 3 studies ( 34 , 39 , 41 ) followed the diagnostic criteria recommended by ASHA to identify children with APD.…”

“…The FFR has been used to explore brainstem encoding of speech signals in children with dyslexia (38,55), language impairment (56,57), and learning problems (58)(59)(60). However, studies on children with isolated auditory processing abnormalities have rarely been reported.…”

Objective: This research aimed to provide evidence for the early identification and intervention of children at risk for auditory processing disorder (APD). Electrophysiological studies on children with suspected APDs were systematically reviewed to understand the different electrophysiological characteristics of children with suspected APDs.Methods: Computerized databases such as PubMed, Cochrane, MEDLINE, Web of Science, and EMBASE were searched for retrieval of articles since the establishment of the database through May 18, 2020. Cohort, case-control, and cross-sectional studies that evaluated the literature for the electrophysiological assessment of children with suspected APD were independently reviewed by two researchers for literature screening, literature quality assessment, and data extraction. The Newcastle–Ottawa Scale and 11 entries recommended by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality were used to evaluate the quality of the literature.Results: In accordance with the inclusion criteria, 14 articles were included. These articles involved 7 electrophysiological testing techniques: click-evoked auditory brainstem responses, frequency-following responses, the binaural interaction component of the auditory brainstem responses, the middle-latency response, cortical auditory evoked potential, mismatch negativity, and P300. The literature quality was considered moderate.Conclusions: Auditory electrophysiological testing can be used for the characteristic identification of children with suspected APD; however, the value of various electrophysiological testing methods for screening children with suspected APD requires further study.

“…The idea behind the selection of these three stimuli (/ba/, /da/, /ga/) was their similar formant structure, so in children with learning difficulties the possibility of misunderstanding these voices are higher than others [2]. Auditory processing disorders can lead to learning problems and hearing difficulties [2,17].…”
