We respond to Bellis, Chermak, Weihing, and Musiek's (2012) criticisms of the evidence-based systematic review of Fey et al. (2011) on the effects of auditory training on auditory, spoken, and written language performance of children with auditory processing disorder or language impairment. In general, we argue that the conceptualizations and methods on which our review was based were well motivated, and that our original conclusions are valid given the limited evidence that is currently available from clinical studies of auditory training with school-age children with auditory processing disorder or language impairment.
