Methods of screening and assessing for (central) auditory processing disorder ([C]APD) continue to attract considerable controversy. This article (the first in a two-part series) surveyed 60 Queensland speech-language pathologists (SLPs) on how they screen and assess children suspected of having (C)APD. The majority of participants were found to favour using parent or teacher reports as indicators for the need to refer a child to audiology for a (C)APD assessment while simultaneously assessing the child’s speech and language. Most participants also reported rarely being asked by audiologists to contribute to (C)APD cases, although they found audiologists’ reports to be useful for diagnosing (C)APD. Overall, these results highlight a need for better communication between SLPs and audiologists if the screening and assessment of children for (C)APD in Queensland is to be improved.
