Most of the threads on this AuD forum are about professional or educational issues. To balance things out, I wanted to start a thread about a clinical issue.
It seems that some researchers and clinicians have advocated the auditory P300 for use in assessing APD. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? For any newbees to the field, keep in mind that the P300 is vastly different than an ABR in many ways. Personally, I believe that the P300 should NOT be used clinically (with the possible exception of threshold assessment in malingerers) due to the myriad of non-pathological factors that can influence it!
Any opinions?
