Our goal is to further our understanding of the how the different
component processes underlying selective attention and spoken language operate, and functionally interact. Our research focuses on both
normal and age-related changes in processing, as well as the effect of brain-damage. With regard to aging, our
goal is to develop a
well-specified theory of aging that accounts for not only age-related
cognitive decline, but preserved cognitive functioning as well.
