Auditory Reasoning

Auditory Reasoning is designed for use by individuals ages 6 and up with central auditory processing disorder (CAPD) or other related disorders (e.g., receptive language disorder or autism), to improve auditory processing requiring reasoning and high-level thinking.

All the tasks are presented orally so the students can work solely on their auditory skills and processing. A reward system in the form of a game will motivate students to practice their auditory skills in the following activities:

• Identifying which one does not belong
• Associations
• Completing the series
• Identifying true vs. false statements
• Identifying facts vs. opinions
• Auditory re-sequencing
• Identifying meanings of words in context
• Analogies
• Riddles
• Paraphrasing short paragraphs
• Drawing conclusions based on short paragraphs
