Abstract
We investigated the effects of aging and hearing acuity on the free recall of spoken passages. Completeness of listeners’ recall and the relationship between the order of propositions in the heard passage and their order during recall was examined. Relationships among recall, semantic fluency, and working memory will be discussed.
