Abstract
⺠Attention-based modulation of tactile signals from the hand diminished in older adults. ⺠This loss was evident at early cortical stages of somatosensory processing. ⺠As expected, the P300 was slower and smaller in older vs. younger subjects. ⺠Age was associated with increased errors during tactile target discrimination.
