[Audiological and pedagogical implications of slight perceptual deafness]

Attention is paid to the fact that slight perception hearing losses in children can give behavioral and learning problems in primary school. Children having theses problems should be examined and treated appropriately. It is important to fit a hearing aid, preferably stereophonic. In most cases the problems are resolved within a few months. It is also important that the parents and school teachers are involved in the treatment. Objective information concerning the hearing problem and the use of the hearing aid should be supplied to them.
