Auditory processing disorder affects a person's ability to hear and/or comprehend sound. It is related to how the auditory section of the brain processes the sound. A person with this disorder can have normal hearing ability since this particular disorder does not mean inner ear impairment which is responsible for hearing sounds only. People who are affected by this condition cannot comprehend verbal words clearly and have a difficult time distinguishing between different sounds. Some signs of this condition are: more time to process what is said, difficulty listening, having trouble paying attention to details, need the speaker to speak slowly. An Auditory Trainer can be used to help a person with this disorder.
