  1. Auditory training and neural plasticity in older adults
    Kelly Tremblay; Fiscal Year: 2007
    ..Because the largest proportion of the population with communication disorders is elderly, it is important to determine if older adults can benefit from auditory training, or, if age limits the capacity for neural and perceptual change. ..
