Abstract
A proposal of a performance profile for the assessment of auditory ski lls of hearing-impaired children with cochlear implants or hearing-aid s is described here. The associated tests have been realized either wi th conventional material or on the Auditory Visual Test and Therapy Sy stem developed by the Aachen research group. Acoustic stimuli and answ ering tasks have been chosen according to the special needs of hearing -impaired children in the age range of 3-6 years of developmental age. Two tests will be described exemplary.
