ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Acoustic change complex (ACC) is an important tool to investigate the encoding of the acoustic property of speech signals in various populations. However, there is a limited number of research papers that have explored the usefulness of ACC as a tool to study the neural encoding of consonant-vowel (CV) transition in children with central auditory processing disorder (CAPD). Thus, the present study aims to investigate the utility of ACC as an objective tool to study the neural representation of consonant-vowel (CV) transition in children with CAPD.METHODS:
Twenty children diagnosed having CAPD and 20 normal counterparts in the age range of 8-14 years were the participants. The ACC was acquired using naturally produced CV syllable /sa/ with a duration of 380 ms.RESULTS:
Latency of N1' and P2' was found to be prolonged in children with CAPD compared to normal counterparts, whereas the amplitude of N1' and P2' did not show any significant difference. Scalp topography showed significantly different activation patterns for children with and without CAPD.CONCLUSION:
Prolonged latencies of ACC indicated poor encoding of CV transition in children with CAPD. The difference in scalp topography might be because of the involvement of additional brain areas for the neural discrimination task in children with CAPD.Palabras clave
