Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It affects approximately 5-8% of children globally, with around 60-70% of cases persisting into adulthood. ADHD has significant implications for educational attainment, social interactions, and occupational success.
Diagnostic Criteria and Symptoms
To diagnose ADHD, symptoms must manifest before age 12 and be evident across multiple settings....

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

The Screening Checklist for Auditory Processing in Adults is a useful tool for identifying auditory processing disorder (APD) in older adults. The version completed by individuals at risk for APD showed better specificity than the one completed by family members.

Area of Science:

Audiology
Gerontology
Neuroscience

Background:

Auditory processing disorder (APD) affects many older adults, impacting their communication and quality of life.
Screening tools are essential for early identification of APD in this population.
Validating screening tools against diagnostic measures is crucial for accurate assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the relationship between the Screening Checklist for Auditory Processing in Adults and diagnostic test performance in older adults.
To compare the efficacy of two checklist versions: one for older adults and one for their family members.

Main Methods:

Forty-nine older adults and 34 family members completed the screening checklist.
Older adults underwent a battery of diagnostic auditory processing tests.
Participants included those with normal hearing and mild-moderate high-frequency hearing loss.

Main Results:

Both older adults and family members frequently reported auditory processing difficulties.
Many older adults failed tests of temporal resolution and auditory integration, regardless of hearing sensitivity.
The checklist for older adults had 69.05% sensitivity and 71.43% specificity; for family members, 77.78% sensitivity and 33.33% specificity.

Conclusions:

The checklist version for older adults is recommended due to higher specificity.
Family member responses can complement screening when older adults cannot provide valid self-reports.
The screening checklist demonstrated good test-retest reliability for both versions.
