When the brain hears something different than was said.
" Did you say fast, vast or smashed?"
Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD)
A child who is struggling because of a Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD) is at a great disadvantage in the classroom. At times, what the brain thinks it has heard is different from what has been said. For example, a child who hears the word FAST, may think they have heard LAST or PASSED or SMASHED or VAST or any other similar sounding word. By the time the child has figured out what the word is within the context of what is being said, the teacher is much further along in the lesson. This is not related to hearing loss, it is realted to how the brain handles the incoming information.
