“…This result was also lower compared with studies with Brazilian children. [5][6][7][8][9]14,15 Lima et al 16 found values between 0.86 (SD ¼ 1.18) and 0.46 (SD ¼ 0.74), agreeing with the lowest values in the decrease in vigilance observed in the present study. This result demonstrates that adults have greater control over attention span and achieve a better sustained hearing attention maintenance compared with children.…”

“…2,6 These results were lower when compared with studies with Brazilian children. [5][6][7][8][9]14,15 A study that applied the SAAAT in adults 16 found mean values of total error scores ranging from 1.00 (SD ¼ 1.30) to 3.26 (SD ¼ 5.86). These values were closer to those found in the present study compared with studies with children.…”

“…These values were closer to those found in the present study compared with studies with children. [5][6][7][8][9]14,15 The total error score considers the sum of inattention and impulsivity error types. Thus, a decrease in these types of errors in adults shows that after 11 years old, sustained attention continues to develop until adulthood.…”

“…A study 16 using the SAAAT, conducted on adults with and without tinnitus, found better performance in both the study group (tinnitus) and the control group (without tinnitus), as shown by the lower total error score and decreased vigilance in adults compared with children. [5][6][7][8][9]14,15 Roebuck et al 18 conducted a study to verify the influence of stimulus type (verbal and nonverbal) on continuous performance tasks in 31 children (aged 8 to 12 years old) and in 32 adults (aged 18 to 50 years old). The study showed no language, cognitive or auditory changes.…”

Introduction The Sustained Auditory Attention Ability Test (SAAAT) is an instrument used to assess sustained auditory attention in children. Difficulties related to this ability are not unique to children alone, as adults have been observed to present with the same deficits. Therefore, there is a need to adapt instruments like the SAAAT and provide reference values for adults. Objective To assess adult performance on the SAAAT. Methods Approved by the Human Research Ethics Committee under n° 034/2011. The sample consisted of 30 participants aged between 18 and 30 years old (average age = 24.2 years old), female and male. The inclusion criteria were: peripheral hearing within normal limits, type A tympanometric curve, and no attention-related complaints. The participants were submitted to Tonal Audiometry, Logoaudiometry, Immitanciometry and to the SAAAT. Results The following mean values and standard deviations (SD) were observed: inattention = 1.7 (SD = 2.2) and impulsivity = 0.8 (SD = 0.9) error types. For the SAAAT, the mean value for the total error score was 2.4 (SD = 2.6), and for the decrease in vigilance, it was 0.3 (SD = 0.5). When comparing the performance of adults and children, a statistically significant difference was observed for inattention (p = 0.000) and impulsivity (p = 0.001) error types, as well as in the total error score (p = 0.000) and in decreased vigilance (p = 0.0003). Conclusion The performance of adults in the SAAAT differed from the children's parameters, since adults showed lower scores in all variables of the instrument.
