Auditory Processing - Probable Difference - Less than others

What the score means: This child responds to sounds ‘probably less than others’. For Auditory processing, this means that the child ‘almost never’ responds to sounds; children this age typically respond more often than this to sounds in everyday life.

Since all the cut scores on the Infant/ Toddler Sensory Profile are based on the normal bell curve, a ‘probable difference’ score means that the child responds less than about 84% of peers, about the same as 14% of peers and more than 2% of peers. Go to the Bell Curve illustration to see how this works.
