The research presented in this paper was carried out with the aim to examine the auditory processing disorders and gender discrimination at the children attending the first grades of primary school. The sample consisted of 30 respondents who attended the first-year classes according to the nine-year plan and program. The research was carried out in two primary schools in the area of the town of Tesanj using the Baterie Tests for the examination of auditory processing disorders PSP-1. The results showed that we had one male respondent with the result -2SD, value χ2 =1,091 with DF=2 and P=0,580 at the TFR test. At the TGB we had two respondents, both male, with the results worse than -2SD, value χ2 =3,41 with DF=3 and P=0,492. Also at the DTR test we had one male respondent with the result -2SD, value χ2 =3,667 with DF=3 and P=0,300. At the DTRE test we had one male respondent with -2SD, value χ2 =3,343 with DF=3 and P=0,342. According to the test criterion one male respondent had result worse than -2SD at two subtests, and hat was considered the auditory processing disorder. According to the T-test results and its belonging P-value we concluded that there was no statistically significant difference between the average results achieved in the subtests of filtered words (TFR), speech in the noise (TGB), the dichotomy of the words (DTR), the dichotomy of the sentences (DTRE) and the total sum on the test since the value was P > 0,05. This was the expected result considering the sample size. It is the fact that the early APD diagnosis is important for the optimal progress at the students, and hopefully the PSP1instrument will find its application in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
