The effects of aging on peripheral hearing function are well known, and age-related hearing loss (presbycusis) is common among those over 60.(Am J Epidemiol 1998; 148 [9]: 879.) An audiologist during a typical hearing evaluation considers whether test results conform to expectations for a presbycusis hearing loss, which is a gradually sloping hearing loss in the high frequencies.What we may fail to consider, however, are the effects of aging on central processing. The American Academy of Audiology Task Force on Central Presbycusis recently published a review of the literature for central presbycusis, concluding that evidence supports the existence of a central presbycusis that arises from a combination of factors involving ageand disease-related issues, including changes in cognitive function.(J Am Acad Audiol 2012;[8]: 635.)
