Does your child have listening difficulties?

Researchers at The University of Queensland (UQ) are studying how children with listening difficulties perform on tests of auditory processing, language, attention, and memory.

To be eligible to take part in this study, your child will need to have listening difficulties, be between the ages of 7-12 years old, and have normal hearing thresholds.

If you choose to participate in this study, we will ask you to complete some background information and two questionnaires about your child’s listening, and we’ll ask you to bring your child to the UQ St Lucia campus where will complete a series of listening assessments over two 1.5-hour sessions. We will provide you with a report describing your child’s listening abilities at the end of the assessment.
