“…Modalities other than facial expressions are less studied, but there is evidence for age-related decrements in emotion recognition in lexical stimuli (Isaacowitz et al, 2007), body postures (Ruffman, Halberstadt, & Murray, 2009), visual scenes (St. Jacques, Dolcos, & Cabeza, 2008), and in dynamic auditory cues, namely speech prosody (e.g., Lambrecht et al, 2012;Mitchell, 2007;Mitchell, Kingston, & Bouças, 2011) and nonverbal vocalizations (Lima, Alves, Scott, & Castro, 2013). Although typically young adults are compared with individuals aged 60 and over (''extreme age group'' design; Isaacowitz & Stanley, 2011), a few studies using finer gradations in age revealed that decrements may proceed linearly with advancing age, with significant differences already in middle-age (e.g., Isaacowitz et al, 2007;Lambrecht et al, 2012;Mill, Allik, Realo, & Valk, 2009;Paulmann, Pell, & Kotz, 2008).…”
