Age-related changes in auditory spatial perception of linguistic and non-linguistic stimuli in participants between 5 and 79 years of age were studied. The results show that the strength of the rightward perceptual bias in linguistic bilateral (dichotic) stimulus condition changes as a function of age. In childhood and old age also other rightward spatial biases were observed in linguistic as well as in non-linguistic stimulus conditions. We propose that the auditory rightward spatial biases are not specific to the language and are probably modulated by the early development and late decline of the executive functions.
研究了5至79岁参与者对语言和非语言刺激的听觉空间感知的年龄相关变化。结果表明,在语言双侧(双耳分听)刺激条件下,向右感知偏差的强度随年龄变化。在儿童期和老年期,在语言和非语言刺激条件下也观察到其他向右的空间偏差。我们认为,听觉向右空间偏差并非语言所特有,可能受执行功能的早期发育和后期衰退调节。
