Auditory processing refers to the brain's ability to interpret and make sense of sounds. This includes recognizing speech, distinguishing between different sounds, and understanding auditory information in various environments. Effective auditory processing is essential for communication and learning. Individuals with auditory processing difficulties may struggle to follow conversations, especially in noisy settings. This can affect their academic performance and social interactions. Various assessments and interventions, such as speech therapy, can help improve auditory processing skills and enhance overall communication abilities.
