What is Central Auditory Processing Disorder?
What Dyslexia is to the eyes, CAPD is to the ears. With this condition people can’t understand what they hear in the same way others do. This is because their ears and brain don’t fully coordinate. Something interferes with the way the brain recognizes and interprets sounds, especially speech.
