Brief summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of applying central auditory processing tests online through teleaudiology. In this context, findings will be presented to increase the accessibility of these tests, with the goal of contributing new data to the existing literature on the usability of online tests in clinical practices. Additionally, investigating the applicability of central auditory processing tests on online platforms aims to provide valuable information regarding diagnostic and assessment processes for individuals who face limitations in accessing audiological evaluation.
Interventions
DEVICETeleaudiological tests
Initially, the FPT, DPT, RGDT, and SSWT were administered face-to-face; one month later, the same tests were repeated via teleaudiology, with the audiologist and participant in separate rooms using identical laptops and headphones, without visual or auditory contact.
