The older adult represents a unique population for studying cognition and language because of the many challenges that are presented with investigating this population, including individual differences in education, life experiences, health issues, social identity, as well as gender. The purpose of this book is to provide an advanced text that considers these unique challenges and assembles in one source current information regarding (a) language in the aging population and (b) current theories accounting for age-related changes in language function. A thoughtful and comprehensive review of current research spanning different disciplines that study aging will achieve this purpose. Such disciplines include linguistics, psychology, sociolinguistics, neurosciences, cognitive sciences, and communication sciences. 606 $aLanguage acquisition$xAge factors 606 $aCognitive psychology 606 $aAging$xPsychological aspects 606 $aLanguage disorders in old age 606 $aCognition in old age 606 $aPsycholinguistics 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLanguage acquisition$xAge factors. 615 0$aCognitive psychology. 615 0$aAging$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aLanguage disorders in old age. 615 0$aCognition in old age. 615 0$aPsycholinguistics. 676 $a408.4/6 702 $aWright$b Heather Harris 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910309957303321 996 $aCognition, language and aging$92022422 997 $aUNINA
