Managing Supramodal Influences: Distinguishing (C)APD from ADHD

Overview• What – and where – is CAPD?• Assessment of ADHD and CAPD• Managing supramodal influences• Integrating top-down and bottom-up

Objective• Let’s integrate top-down and bottom-up into assessment and treatment

Diagnostics as “making distinctions”

301.13, ruleout 296.89

Hard signs and soft signs

Developmental soft signs

WHAT – AND WHERE - IS APD?

Deficits• sound localization• auditory discrimination• auditory pattern recognition• temporal aspects of audition• auditory performance in competing acoustic signals and with degraded acoustic signals

Home/classroom observations• Poor “communicator”(terse, telegraphic)• Memorizes poorly• Hears better when watching the speaker• Problems with rapid speech• Interprets words too literally• Often needs remarks repeated• Confuses similar-sounding words

The Construct of APD• associated with poor perception of both speech and non-speech sounds• has its origins in impaired neural function• impacts everyday life• should be assessed through standardized tests of auditory perception• may co-occur with other neurodevelopmental disorders

The Construct of APD• may not be exclusively bottom-up• may be impacted by attentional factors

• Acquired• Secondary• Developmental

ADHD and CAPDASSESSMENT

Asssessment of ADHD• History• Review of records• Collateral report• Checklists• Behavioral observations• Assessment of IQ, academics, language, memory, attention/vigilance, and exeuctive functioning

ADHD is not:• Dementia• Global developmental (intellectual) delay• Psychiatric disorder• Acquired (stroke, brain injury) language disorder• Sleep disorder• Auditory or sensory processing disorder

Assessment of CAPD• History• Review of records• Collateral report• Checklists• Behavioral observations• APD screening• Diagnostic audiological assessment• Electrophysiologic assessment

APD is not:• Dementia• Global developmental (intellectual) delay• Psychiatric disorder• Acquired (stroke, brain injury) language disorder• Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder• Behavioral Disorder (extreme “selective listening”)

Approaches to Test Scores• norm-based interpretation (absolute), and• patient-based interpretation (relative)

Buffalo Model• Decoding• Tolerance-fading memory• Integration• Organization “what we do with what we hear”

Bellis / Ferre Model• Primary – decoding, prosodic, and integration deficits• Secondary – associative and output organization deficits

Identify (and treat) specific deficits

Common Recommendations for APD Evaluation• Rule out peripheral auditory involvement• Rule out attention, memory, and intellectual impairment• Rule out a language impairment

MANAGING SUPRAMODALINFLUENCES

CAPD or ADHD?• Asks for things to be repeated • Inattention• Poor Listening skills • Academic Difficulties• Difficulty following oral • Daydreams instructions• Difficulty discriminating speech • Distracted• Difficulty hearing with • Poor Listening Skills background noise• Difficulty maintaining auditory • Disorganized attention in quiet• Academic difficulties • Asks for things to be repeated• Slow to process information • Auditory divided attention deficit

Other “rule outs”

Managing supramodal influences in the assessment• Altering the redundancy of the signal• “Teasing out” aspects of the processing pathway

Managing supramodal influences in the history and interview• Where do you see it the most?• Where do you see it the least?• Pediatric genie question• What would make the greatest difference?

Comorbidity“tell me two stories”

Managing supramodal influences in your behavioral observations• What does the client elicit?• What qualitative comments can you make about errors?• Where do you see “it” the most? The least?

What’s the kid’s deal?

Modularity

INTEGRATING TOP-DOWN ANDBOTTOM-UP

Obstacles to integrating

• Phonemic awareness or auditory aphasia?• Working memory or divided attention?

Phonemic awarenessWorking memory

Bottom up interventions• Auditory training• FM transmission• Environmental modification• Training the speaker to face the listener, check for understanding

Bottom up interventions• Preferential seating• Increased use of visual cues• Auditory training• Untimed testing• Prosody, intonation

Top down interventions• Metalinguistic training – schema induction – context-derived vocabulary building, phonological awareness – semantic network expansion• Metacognitive training – strengthening higher order central resources• Assertiveness training

Future directions• Research• Clinical collaboration – Assessment – Treatment• School-based collaboration• Mutual education• Humility
