Abstract
Our understanding of the effects of aging on language has overwhelmingly been predicated on studies of spoken languages, and few studies have examined the impact of aging on deaf users of naturally occurring signed languages. Studies of language abilities in deaf signers present unique opportunities to broaden our understanding of the impact of chronological aging on human language processing, as well as explore modality and language-specific factors that may uniquely affect sign language use in the face of aging.
