Normal audiograms correspond to unchanged auditory filter widths with age

Evidence

The effect of age cannot be attributed to reduced frequency selectivity, since auditory filters do not broaden with increasing age when absolute thresholds remain normal (Lutman et al. 1991 ; Peters and Moore 1992 ). — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 796 (#expands, via linked claim)
