Abstract

To verify if there is an association between temporal auditory tests and phonological awareness in individuals with reading and writing disorders. Sixteen children were subjects of this study, aged between 7 and 12 years old, who had reading and writing disorders confirmed after specific assessment. All participants underwent phonological awareness assessment using CONFIAS test. In order to assess the auditory temporal processing, duration and frequency pattern tests were used. The descriptive analysis indicated low performance in syllabic and phonemic activities of phonological awareness as well as in temporal auditory tests. Fisher's test indicated association between disorders in auditory temporal processing and phonological awareness (p>0.001). It suggests that disorders in temporal processing contribute to low performance in phonological awareness tasks. There was association between performance in temporal auditory tests and in the phonological awareness. Data found provide reflections about including temporal auditory assessment among procedures used in the analysis of individuals with reading and writing disorders.

Highlights

  • To verify if there is an association between temporal auditory tests and phonological awareness in individuals with reading and writing disorders

  • Dessa forma, pode-se afirmar que o desenvolvimento das habilidades do processamento temporal é importante para a consciência fonológica (CF), uma vez que esta envolve tarefas de síntese, segmentação e transposição silábica e fonêmica
