ABSTRACT

Background: Hearing results from processes of modulation of the acoustic signal performed by the auditory pathway and cortical activity. Sound detection, location, discrimination, intelligibility in noise and silence require integrity of the auditory system.
Objective: to recognize the auditory variability in competent users and examine the relationship of auditory processing abilities with peripheral sensitivity.
Methods: 97 normal-hearing participants with comprehensive listening in a second language and/or music were studied with the Spanish version of the Amsterdam Inventory for Auditory Disability and Handicap (S-AIADH), audiometry and impedanciometry. Correlations between S-AIADH scores and audiometric tonal and acoustic thresholds were calculated.
Results: Scores in sound distinction, intelligibility in noise and location showed the greatest dispersion. Auditory processing abilities did not correlate significantly with acoustic thresholds and reflexes, except for the intelligibility in noise that was positively associated with the tonal threshold at frequencies 500 and 1000 Hz in both ears.
Conclusion: These results indicate a paradox, which reinforces the differentiation between hearing and listening. For a comprehensive approach, the study of hearing requires addressing both peripheral and central auditory processing, where the use of self-report instruments is important.
