Introduction: Temporal processing is one of the most important aspects to be analyzed due to its strong connection with language and cognition, thus, language comprehension difficulties may be present in parkinsonians. Objective: To assess the auditory temporal abilities of individuals with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Methods: An observational, cross-sectional study in which 14 individuals (mean age 64 years) were evaluated, seven in the study group with PD diagnosis, and seven in the control group with healthy individuals. The individuals underwent the Mini-Mental State Examination and basic audiological evaluation to exclude evidence of dementia and the presence of high hearing loss. To assess auditory abilities, the following special tests of central auditory processing (CAP) were selected: Dichotic Digit Test, Frequency Pattern Test and Gaps in Noise Detection Test (GIN). Statistical analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney and Chi-square tests. Results: The individuals in the study group had worse performance than the control group in all evaluated CAP tests. There was a statistically significant difference between the groups for the standard frequency test (p-value: 0.041) and for the GIN test in the left ear (p-value: 0.015). Conclusion: It was possible to conclude that individuals with PD present a greater impairment of the auditory abilities of ordering and temporal resolution in relation to the group of healthy elderly people. It is suggested that individuals with PD perform an assessment of their auditory abilities, since rehabilitation involving the temporal aspects of hearing can improve communication and socialization of these individuals.
