'What we found with two-and-a-half-year-olds is that it's amazingly hard for adults to identify who's talking,' said Angela Cooper, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Toronto. Cooper's co-authored research will be presented in the poster session at the Acoustical Society of America's 176th Meeting, Nov. 5-9. A sample of child's recording session
