Hot off the press (Wei et al., 2017), this
meta-analysis of cohort studies suggests that the link between hearing loss and
age-related cognitive decline is not due to a shared, common neurodegenerative
process. Because hearing loss typically
precedes cognitive decline, the authors suggest the following ways that a
decline in hearing ability might cause a decline in cognition:
· 1. “Auditory deprivation may cause decreased
socialization and increased depression, as well as a decline in cognitive
function, which can result in mild cognitive impairment or dementia.
· 2. Hearing impairment [may] cause cognitive
resources to be diverted from memory function into auditory processing, which creates
an excessive cognitive load on higher cortical functions, leading to cognitive
decline.
· 3. Hearing impairment may modify the auditory
pathway and the brain.” (pg. 449)
·
The use of amplification and follow-up clEAR auditory
brain training may be critical elements in staving off cognitive decline. Now
more than ever, older adults need to be counselled about the importance of
hearing healthcare.
