Word retrieval after the 80s: Evidence from specific and multiple words naming tasks
Older adults show a progressive cognitive decline, and although language processing
appears to resist advancing age, studies in word retrieval report that elders show important …

Task difficulty modulates age-related differences in functional connectivity during word production
Older adults typically report increased difficulty with language production, while its neural
bases are less clear. The current study investigated the neural bases of age-related …
