One core question in studies of language processing is the extent to which interlocutors engage in real-time communicative perspective-taking. Current evidence suggests that both children and young adult listeners are able to draw on common ground (shared knowledge) to guide referential interpretation. However, less is known about older listeners,…

Kirsner, Kim – British Journal of Psychology, 1972
Auditory and visual recognition were studied in subjects ranging in age from 10 to 60 years.
