In my audiological training, it was assumed that being able to hear soft sounds in a quiet booth meant that a person's hearing was "fine." Now I know that real-world hearing is much more complicated, and good acuity doesn't mean one's hearing is "normal." I'll be giving a workshop on July 25, 2018 on "Therapy for Children with Auditory Processing Disorders". I am a fan of the work of Nina Kraus and the members of her lab. That will be one of the topics covered in the workshop. Here's a short, very readable, article by Nina Kraus and Trent Nichol on how important sound is in our lives:http://www.brainvolts.northwestern.edu/documents/KrausNicol_NHB_2017.pdf Call me at 503-806-1498 or email me at [email protected] if you are interested in the workshop.
