Auditory responses and behavioral patterns in children with autism spectrum disorder: A case series

Otizm Spektrum Bozukluğu (OSB) olan çocuklar dil gelişimindeki gecikme sebebiyle genellikle odyolojik değerlendirme için yönlendirilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, OSB olan çocukların işitsel cevap ve davranış örüntülerini göstermek ve odyolojik test bataryasının birlikte yorumlanmasının önemini vurgulamaktır. Otizm Spektrum Bozukluğu ile takip edilen üç olgunun işitme testi bulguları değerlendirilmiştir. Olguların işitsel uyaranlara verdikleri cevaplar değişiklik göstermektedir. Otizmli çocuklarda, gerek güvenilir işitme testi sonucuna ulaşabilmek için gerekse doğru yönlendirme ve yaklaşımın belirlenebilmesi için, otizmli çocukların işitsel cevap ve davranış örüntülerinin alanda çalışan odyologlar ve ilgili diğer meslek grupları tarafından bilinmesi oldukça önemlidir.

Auditory Responses and Behavioral Patterns in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Case Series

Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are consulted for the audiological assessment because of delayed language development. This study aimed to show auditory response and behavior patterns in children with ASD and to show the importance of interpreting audiological findings together. Subjective and objective audiological tests were applied to three children. Given responses to the auditory stimulus change in these children. Characteristics of their auditory and behavioral patterns must be known by audiologists and other specialists, who are working with ASD, both to obtain to reliability hearing results and to determine suitable consultation and approach in children with ASD.
