Relationships Between Hearing Loss and Cognition in Normally Hearing Aged Persons

Granick, Samuel; And Others

Journal of Gerontology, 31, 4, 434-440, Jul 76

The relationships between mild hearing losses and cognitive functioning were studied for two samples of aged subjects whose hearing was within normal limits. Hearing losses at various frequency levels were correlated with performance on cognitive tests. Results reveal substantial associations between hearing losses and scores on the intellectual measures.
