  • Title: Normal ABR's in children classified as learning disabled.
    Author: Tait CA, Roush J, Johns J.
    Journal: J Aud Res; 1983 Jan; 23(1):56-62. PubMed ID: 6677638.
    Abstract:
    Some preliminary studies on children identified as having "minimal brain dysfunction" have suggested that auditory brainstem (ABR) latency measures may be useful in facilitating early identification of children with learning disabilities. However, the present investigation on 20 boys aged 9-14 yrs classified as learning disabled according to typical psychoeducational criteria used in the United States showed that no ABR latency measure to repetitive click stimuli could differentiate this group from age-matched normal controls. Furthermore, psychoeducational Battery was not related to ABR latency in these children.
