Therefore, we believe that it is necessary to use auditory tests that require complex attentional abilities in listening, such as those required in daily life, to assess adults with LiD. We concluded that auditory attention is an important ability to conduct the auditory dual-task, and this is applicable for adults with LiD. Conclusion: The results suggest that adults with LiD have difficulties in appropriately allocating various cognitive abilities required for each task. Participants were undergraduate students (n84, media22 years old, standard deviation2.3) who responded to the State and Trait. On the other hand, all adults without LiD were able to conduct the auditory dual-task exactly and promptly. Furthermore, the analysis of reaction time for pressing button revealed that the standard deviation of reaction time was extended in participants who scored poorly in either of the ear tasks. And of course, in dichotic listening tasks central nervous systems are confronted with the necessity of making a choice between competing inputs it may be that topdown mechanisms involving the frontal cortex play a role in the REA in left dominant participants. When examined individually, four adults with LiD had decreased scores in both the sentence repetition and target detection task, while the other nine participants showed a bias toward either task. Results: Our results showed that there were significant differences between the participant groups in the auditory dual-task under the dichotic listening situation. We compared the response accuracy for each ear task between adults with and without LiD.

They were required to press a key for standard stimuli in the target detection task and repeat what they heard immediately in the repetition task. The participants heard these stimuli through headphones. The stimuli presented to them were played on a personal computer at the most comfortable level. In the sentence repetition task, short sentences were presented. In the target detection task, participants listened to the 1,000-Hz tone served as the standard stimulus, while they had to accept a 2,000-Hz tone presented as the deviant stimulus. We presented a target detection task using an odd-ball format for one ear and a sentence repetition task for the other ear. Methods: Twenty-one adults who had normal hearing but complained about LiD encountered during everyday life and 22 healthy controls were included.

We examined the state of auditory attention in adults with and without LiD in tasks requiring multiple attention controls. The Dichotic Listening Task is a psychological test commonly used in cognitive psychology to study selective attention. However, they do not adequately describe the actual state of poor attention ability in adults with LiD. The dichotic listening tasks involves simultaneously sending one message (a 3-digit number) to a person’s right ear and a different message (a different 3-digit number) to their left ear. Introduction: Recent studies have reported poor cognition, such as attention and working memory, in adults with listening difficulties (LiD).
