Abstract
Purpose: to analyze and compare the performance in the time-compressed speech test and the auditory behavior of adults with and without central auditory processing disorders.
Methods: an observational, analytical, cross-sectional study with a total of 40 people of both genders aged 18 to 35 years participating in the study. They were submitted to anamnesis, basic audiological assessment, and a core battery of tests for central auditory processing – including the dichotic digits test (binaural integration), frequency pattern test, and time-compressed speech test (TCST). Based on the results of the dichotic digits and frequency pattern tests, the subjects were divided into two groups, with and without central auditory processing disorders. The auditory behavior was assessed with the Scale of Auditory Behavior (SAB) questionnaire. The Mann-Whitney and Fisher’s exact tests were used for the statistical analysis, setting the significance level at p < 0.05.
Results: no difference in performance was found between the groups regarding the ears. There was a difference between the groups only in the time-compressed speech test with monosyllable stimuli in the left ear (p = 0.026). Monosyllables were the words that resulted in most errors.
Conclusion: it was verified that only the list of stimuli influenced the performance, differing the individuals with and without central auditory processing disorders. There was an association of auditory behavior, analyzed with the SAB questionnaire, with the performance in the TCST with the list of monosyllables. It is suggested that this list be used when assessing adults by the time-compressed speech test.

Resumo
Objetivo: analisar e comparar o desempenho no Teste de Fala Comprimida e o comportamento auditivo de adultos com e sem alteração do Processamento Auditivo Central.
Métodos: estudo observacional, transversal e analítico. Participaram do estudo 40 indivíduos, com idade de 18 a 35 anos, de ambos os sexos. Os participantes foram submetidos à anamnese, avaliação audiológica básica, e bateria mínima do Processamento Auditivo Central, incluindo o Teste Dicótico de Dígitos (integração binaural), Teste Padrão de Frequência e o Teste de Fala Comprimida. A partir do resultado dos Testes Dicótico de Dígitos e Padrão de Frequência foram distribuídos em grupos de indivíduos sem e com alteração de Processamento Auditivo Central. O comportamento auditivo foi avaliado por meio do questionário Scale of Auditory Behaviors(SAB). Para análise estatística foram utilizados os testes Mann-Whitney e Fisher’s Exact test, considerando o nível de significância p<0,05.
Resultados: em relação à variável orelha não foi encontrada diferença de desempenho entre os grupos. Houve diferença entre os grupos apenas no Teste Fala Comprimida monossílabos da orelha esquerda (p=0,026). As palavras com maior ocorrência de erros foram as monossílabas.
Conclusão: verificou-se que apenas a lista de estímulos influenciou no desempenho entre os indivíduos com e sem alteração de Processamento Auditivo Central. Houve associação do comportamento auditivo analisado pelo questionário SAB com o desempenho do TFC na lista de monossílabos. Sugere-se que esta lista seja utilizada na avaliação do teste fala comprimida em adultos.
