Abstract

Introduction. Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is associated with cognitive deficits, which may be shared with other conditions, such as Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD). Objective. Analysing the findings of the assessment of central auditory processing (CAP) in children and adolescents with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Method. This is a systematic review. The guiding question was created based on the PECOS strategy: “Are there changes in CAP behavioral tests in children and adolescents with ADHD?” Studies indexed in the following databases were identified: Pubmed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, LILACS, LIVIVO, Proquest and Google Scholar. Observational studies were selected, in any language, without publication date restrictions. Results. The search strategy retrieved 1233 articles, after removing the duplicates (522), 711 titles and abstracts were read and 38 were selected for full reading, of which 13 met the eligibility criteria. The temporal ordering and resolution ability was the most compromised and the use of medication favored the performance in the CAP tests. Conclusion. The results presented by this research show that there is change in the CAP behavioral tests in children and adolescents with ADHD. The auditory skill frequently altered in these individuals was temporal processing, both resolution and temporal ordering and most studies showed a low or moderate risk of bias.
